I also though it was laughable when the movie showed a satellite view of Manhattan and the location of the RCC is pointed to Midtown Manhattan, then the next shot where the RCC is supposed to be located is 1 NY Plaza. The SI Ferry terminal is clearly shown next to 1 NY Plaza.

The camera work with the Mayor at the corner of 60th and Lex is unnecessary and stupid, dizzying around like 4 times. The hostages are not really shown their characters unlike the original. However the movie does have quite a few laughs in the spirit of the original and Denzel Washington's acting is amazing. The film does capture the essence of NYC unlike the horrible Toronto remake, however it would have been more watachable without the stupid camera tricks, like it OD' on Valium. One more item, you can tell the car was stuck outside Church Ave Culver portal, one R46 F train passed by on the local track.

I still enjoyed this
