Can't wait for the dumbed down American remake


It will basically be the same movie! Only
? In English
? Without those pesky rape scenes, it needs a PG-13 because what doesn't these days.
? Without that pesky nudity because again, PG-13 guys. Maybe Vera will be in underwear for the majority if the movie.
? That pesky gore, no. How about some PG-13 Hollywood explosions! Yay!
? Vera won't be the same person as the rapist. Ew. That's icky. I know Hollywood have never remade a foreign film and taken out a sub plot about a character being trans sexual before, but if they have that side of the story it could weird the audience out.

I've lost my train of thought here.

I image they'd cast a mis used Mark Wahlberg (as in when he's in movies like Transformers rather than Boogie Nights) as Robert.
Megan Fox as Vera
And Jai Courtney as a character the writer creates so there can be a pointless romance and the audience can 'relate' to someone.

There IS an American remake, and it's even more twisted. Here's the link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0918575/?ref_=nv_sr_2

That was released a year before, and while it may be more twisted it can't be as god a movie. Rather than using the story in an artistic way depicting themes like gender identity, it looks like it's just using the story for shock reasons.

I worded that wrong. I meant to say an American VERSION of it.
