I enjoyed it, but the original is one of my all-time faves and it was the middle movie on a 15 hour flight so perhaps the bar wasn't set very high.
so you tried to turn the volume in the entertainment system to 11 then?
Watched the Rob Reiner retrospective on CBS on Sunday and they showed that scene from the original. They noted the movie was largely ad-libbed because Reiner didn't want it to feel scripted.
