"The Producers"

Watching Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane's ultra-broad shtick is a little like watching a 3-D Imax film without the special glasses.

    Umm...it's not exactly a remake

    Don't know how the previous letter writers missed this, what with it winning 11,000 Tony Awards and all, but this "Producers" movie is based on the "Producers" Broadway musical, which was in turn based on the original "Producers" movie.

    OK, so maybe it's a little confusing. Still, not a remake.

    —Mark Hughes Cobb
