Why do people hate this film?

It's just something made that's pointless.

It's one of those remakes that are wildly hated like the Nightmare On Elm Street remake or lady Ghostbusters.

Reimagining Hitchcock: Where The Psycho Remake Went Wrong

Despite the incredible execution and near-perfect performances of everyone involved in the making of Psycho- Someone, somewhere, thought it would be a good idea to create an almost shot-for-shot remake of the classic 1960 title, and bring it into the modern era, while simultaneously remaining detrimentally faithful to the original film- which was not meant for the modern era.

no one needed to confirm that 90s actors are worse than 60s actors.
and that B+W is better than color

and also what IS the definition of copyright infringement?!
