Recently re-watched this on the Starz App and it holds up 33 years later.
The movie still looks amazing and could easily pass for a film 10-15yrs younger.
Dan Aykroyd and Tom Hanks play their roles flawlessly. I was lucky enough to watch reruns of Dragnet on Nick at Nite back in the early 90's and their performances in the remake are obviously intended to both honor the source material and also give it a coat of comedic paint which works great and still holds up to the day.
Not many remakes of classic tv shows work but this one works and can easily be on many a top 10 list if you were compiling a list of tv show remakes not to mention an underrated 80's buddy cop movie.
