First off I found this on tonight by accident. What did I just watch? I thought the remake of Rocky Horror was cringeworthy. I was sitting there going that's not right. It was so many red flags, bad songs, and they couldn't dance. Then that ending what did I just watch? What was that dancing?

Did anyone else watch this trainwreck tonight?

What did you guys think of this movie? I tried to be nice, but I can't. Me and others on Twitter thought the same thing. Some movies should never, be remade!

Even IMDB hasn't been nice either. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5262792/?ref_=rvi_tt

Trainwreck is a good description for the remake. I did not like the things they added, such as the mother wanting a divorce. I didn't see the whole thing, tuned in just as they were coming out of the pond, did not see the pond lift until your picture here. Talk about an unflattering position & the final lift at the end was not much better. Also, I felt no chemical, sexual tension or electricity between these 2 leads.

Such a disgrace to the classic, ground breaking (when the 1987 film was released, it was considered pretty risque) original.

I was laughing at the Twitter feed, and I wish we still had IMDB board for this movie. It had a 2 star rating last time I looked. I hope, but I know ABC won't listen when people say don't remake another classic!

OMG what a picture. I try not to be critical about girl figure images, but I'm sorry the "new" baby was frumpy & the pond lift looks like he's hefting a baby whale.

Is this the IMDB review you were referring to?

:emoji_angry:~ This movie was total crap.:emoji_poop: What a waste of time. Thank goodness that ABC didn't make it a two nighter. I heard that ABC was going to show it by parts. So since the backlash of twitter & facebook messages of horrible review before the movie was even seen. Then again its insane to even think of remaking a classic.:emoji_neutral_face:
