Significantly better than I expected. More than anything though, I was thoroughly impressed with how they were able to keep a straight face during the exorcism scene. I assume that must have taken many takes.
It visually looks phenomenal; although, its attempt at realism means that certain very cartoony things from the original movie got changed (e.g. no more Timon in a hula outfit). Aside from the obvious visual differences, there's a lot of smaller changes here or there - particularly in terms of dialogue/humour. So, it's definitely not an exact 1:1 remake (in fact, the new movie is thirty minutes longer), but all the core narrative beats are still in tact.
Overall, the 1994 movie is still king, but this is also a great rendition.
This is really highlighting how little I care about most Ubisoft stuff. I suppose I may as well do the free month for this though...
Although, the only two things on this that I really feel any desire to play are Zombi and Blood Dragon.
Also, Far Cry 2 is worth checking of - I know it's super divisive, but you may as well have a go and see if you like it, after all, you can get it free on your first month.
The 1-0-0 option. Although, I'd probably actually input 1-0-2 or 5-8 or something. I have a weird proclivity for putting things in the microwave for not round numbers.
Also, the existence of dial microwaves is blowing my mind.
