The Magnificent Seven
I expected any remake of this classic to be junk, but it's a rollicking, fun Western. Well worth the rental! And, much like the F&F franchise, it successfully transcends race - the 7 are black, white, Mexican, Indian, Asian, Confederate, and Union - by flat out ignoring the issue and any anachronisms or dust-ups it would cause. A worthy template for Hollywood to follow.
