When Sylvester Stallone was deceived by his longtime rival Arnold Schwarzenegger in "Stop! Or my mother will shoot". He probably thought it was the lowest, he would ever fall. But by the end of that decade, things looked pretty serious, and was found in a bad remake that helped Hammer another manicure in the actor's coffin (before rising from the dead with the excellent "Rocky Balboa" in 2006).

In an era in which Disney cannot stop making live remake by action, burdened with monstros of the Valley-CGI, there is, believe me or not, very much Remeans who are actually better than the original movies on which they are. "The Identity of Born", for example, was a TV film before becoming a seminant actor-starring Matt Damon who maintains a permanent impact on the genre even today. From the new series "Planet of the Monkeys" to "Maltese Falcon", Hollywood has proven that the remuneration should not always be cynical and superfluous and that they can sometimes improve after existing films.

Unfortunately, the 2000s Get Carter is not one of those films. The film of the same name in 1971, which was based on Ted Lewis's novel, "Jackec's Returning Home", became known as one of Britain's biggest contributions to the cinema, despite initially smearing critics of its graphic violence. Attempting to remake the film, however, signaled the beginning of what would be harsh for six years for his leading actor to enter the new century and remains one of his biggest mistakes ... Although you ask the man himself, the film is underestimated.

Directed by Steven Kay, Starswoles of "Get Carter" Sylvester Stallone as Jackec Carter. Instead of Michael Caine's London gangster, who returns to his home in the north of England, this Jackec Carter is a mafia in Vegas coming home to Seattle after his brother was killed in a car accident. But Stallone's wise man soon begins to doubt the foul, which made him climb through the underground of the city, where he fulfills his form of moral justice from, well, killing a bunch of guys before finally connecting with his family. Kane himself even appeared as the owner of a club where Carter's late brother worked.

With righteousness, "Get Carter" (2000) Does a great job to immerse you in its frightening Seattle setting, and portraying Mickey Rourke of Gangster Cyrus Pais is the main position. But it's about everything you can say about this bad remake, who arrived in a real nady for his Starwar. Pictures managed to restore his attitude as A-writing in the early 90's with "Clifancher" (one of the best movies with stalon) and "demolition man", but went to a series of apostles and disappointments that left him low enough to Consider Batman's Live Film, opposite Mark Hamil By the time the new millennium arrived. "Take Carter" did not do much to help in that regard. Despite the script of the writer "American History X", David McKenna, the film was sentenced to condemned from the beginning, especially because it was produced by Franchise Pictures, the same company that went bankrupt Johnon Travolta's adaptation. Ron Hubbard "Battlefield Earth", which remains one of the worst movies ever made.

Since you may not be surprised to find out, "Get Carter" was critical and commercial disappointment, but that does not mean that its Starwar is completely reduced to the project. In 2022, Stallone spoke Hollywood reporter In a wide interview that reflected his entire career. Asked what he thinks is his most respected film, Stallone pointed out "Get Carter", admitting that although it is "great disappointment", he learned something from his experience. "I learned the hard way (remake), even if you do it better than the original, there is a huge nostalgia attached to the original," he said. "And quite often, they are not made as well as the last" Story for the West Side ". Why would you mess with such a thing?

In his interview in TR, Sylvester Stallone also revealed that he thought he was his Crime thriller in 1997 "Kop Land", which recently found a new audience of streaming, She had to do a little better, and as he was playing with Robert de Niro, Harvey Kitel and Ray Liotta and had a decent little sense, that expectations were understandable. But even the muted response to that film could not match the failure that was a "Get Carter" remake, which brought him $ 19.4 million to a $ 40 million budget and seemed to insult every critic he saw.

The film currently has a result of 11% critic Rotten tomatoes And the only "top critic" who gave him a positive review was Chris Waglar from the morning news in Dallas, who praised Steven Kay's "stylish" direction, adding that "the new" Carter "is not half as bad as it could have been".

Regardless, Stallone clearly did not allow this failure to lower this, and although the years immediately after the release of "Get Carter" would be difficult, he eventually came out to the top once again. What is more, Stallone obviously believes that "get Carter" as a "Tulsa King" predictor of Taylor Sheridan, Tulsa King. A much more successful project starring as a newly released Mafia Dwight Manfred.

Interestingly, Stallone's "Get Carter" was not the only remake of the original, with MGM trying to turn the story into a 1972 blasting movie starring Bernie Casey. As much as he was, as it were, it was probably more to like the remake of the George Armitage, who certainly managed to do enough to successfully distinguish himself from the Caine version.
