An insult to the original film

What is the point of this remake except to make money. Yeah all films aim to make money but remaking a classic just for the sake of making money is pretty pointless.

Emily Blunt - who in my view has never turned out a good performance in any of her films - does a ridiculous impersonation of Mary P. Her accent is so fake. And who is that ugly guy they have in Dick's role? He's butt ugly. Dick was a handsome man in the original MP.

I squirm when I see Emily's performance. The accent is so cheap and stupid. The whole movie is POINTLESS.

What is this obsession with Emily Blunt??? She's a boring actor.

Rubbish. It's a good movie, and Blunt did an excellent job. Its existence does not detract in any way from the original, which you can still see any time you want to.
