Where's The Hammond Organ?

This weekend's movie rental was The Mod Squad. The one with Claire Danes, Omar Epps, and... uh... other people.

The reviews were really really bad. A universal pan.

Funny thing. I thought the movie was pretty much as I remember the original. Ponderous, poorly written, basically one reaction shot after another, punctuated by the occasional "Groovey!" and "Right On!". And I think the movie did it all justice.

Instead of giving the updated Pete a kinda punk/tweeker vibe, I think they should have made him a homo.

Oh. And Julie didn't get held hostage. Duh! Julie always gets held hostage.
