Remakes CAN be worthwhile - this one...not so much

There are plenty of reasons to remake a movie. Even the movies which were good in the first place. Would we say that no one can revive a Broadway play because it was so good the first time? Should a Beethoven symphony never be replayed because we have Bernstein's magnificent recording? We remake originals because we feel we have a new take on them. (Shakespeare thrives on that.) If the original was forgettable (or even forgotten), a remake will probably be easy (although not necessarily any better). But if the original was very good - or at least very memorable - a remake will be quite a challenge. The original Endless Love was controversial - either good or bad, depending on who is describing it - but it certainly was memorable. It was melodramatic and very much a soap opera - but it made the most of what it was. This remake fails the challenge. It remodels the guts of the narrative without retaining its bite. The original was dark, even risky. This is just sort of vanilla, if a bit anxious. I like Alex Pettyfer's work a lot, but he shouldn't have been cast as David, not because he couldn't act the role (he did well with it) but because he was too old. David is supposed to be just graduating high school and too shy to approach fellow senior Jade. Alex was coming off his very buff role in Magic Mike. He looks tall, dark and handsome. No way he wouldn't have had girls - and boys, too - all over him. Jade would hardly not have noticed him. The original - with David being 17 and Jade 15 - didn't face that problem. When producers secure the remake rights to a film, they pretty much can do whatever they want. But that doesn't mean it will work. This remake doesn't make it as a feature film. As TV movie which wasn't titled Endless Love, it might have fared better.
