Remake Error John Carpenter's Cult Classic Gets Slapped AroundBy Cole Smithey In attempting to modernize John Carpenter's 1976 cult-classic director Jean-Francois Richet opens with a showstopper sequence akin to Joe Carnahan's "Narc" before digressing into a disjointed quagmire. Jake Roenick (Ethan Hawke) is a distraught Detroit police Sergeant on duty at an obsolete police station (Precinct 13) on a blizzard-ravaged New Year's Eve when a stranded police bus full of prisoners is forced to fill the precinct's jail cells. Kingpin criminal Marion Bishop (Lawrence Fishburne) unwittingly attracts a siege on the precinct from a group of dirty undercover cops who want Marion's head at all costs, lest he testify against them. Jake is forced to arm the prisoners to help defend the station house against a nightlong assault that claims a handful of victims.

John Leguizamo plays a junkie mascot for the group of prisoners who file into the precinct to wait out the fierce snowstorm. Once the attack on the station house begins, the plot becomes something of a tennis match. We watch a dead ball of tension get smacked between the outside forces, the freshly armed criminals inside, and their police officer teammates. Screenwriter James DeMonaco's proclivity for Mexican stand-offs reaches its saturation threshold as so many guns get pointed in characters' faces that all suspense is drained from the situation. 2ff7e9595c
