Scorseses directing choices (even the over the top ones) make this movie pretty unique. Robert De Niro is very convincing and scary as the revenge thirsty ex-con. Also Juliette Lewis fills the screen with her charisma. |

Wow! DeNiro is so scary in this. Lewis does a great job as the daughter. Not as good the second time because the shock-factor is gone but definitely worth seeing once. |

A remake that doesn't suck? Yeah, they're rare but there out there. Watch out for short but sweet cameos by the leads from the original. |

While DeNiro is incredible in this one, it lacks any real image - any real feeling. The cinematography is pretty good, the pacing is good, but I felt nothing most of the movie. To put it simply it is good, but nothing special. Just Good. |

Scorsese & DeNiro... A can't miss!!!!! |

The 1962 movie version of "Cape Fear" was already a great and classic one. It was a movie that set the standards for most later thrillers and featured Gregory Peck and Robert Mitchum still in their prime. How was a remake ever going to surpass the original? Martin Scorsese really pulled this off! He makes "Cape Fear" an haunting atmospheric thriller that still is one of THE best in its genre.
"Cape Fear" is a real psychological thriller. It doesn't rely on scares or anything like that but more on its atmosphere. It's a very insecure- and therefor also really an unpleasant atmosphere, since you just don't know what is going to happen next and what the Cady character actually tries to achieve. It's a real unpredictable character, that is capable of anything. You're just waiting for him to ... |
