I think the British one is hilarious but if you didn't like that one you probably won't like this one. All they did was take almost every single joke in the British one and put a slight twist on it to make it appeal to a black audience I guess you'd say. Like remember in the origianal when the caskets get mixed up and the son says "This isn't my father" in the smug British humor type of way, well in this one Chris Rock says something like "This isn't my father, this is Jackie Chan" in his trademarked "annoyed" but trying to sound funny voice. I love Chris's stand-up and I liked his show but his movies always blow.
In short the remake sucked balls.
