Dude there are a lot of classics that worth to watch them and in this case is not outdated cuz the plot itself didn't require visual effects and shits like that. Jack Nicholson was the beast in this film, his role as a maniac is a masterpiece and yeah I agree with you the wife's acting was a shit. I think this is one of the cases where the movie is better than the book like Blade Runner and Do androids dream of Electric Sheep?. Thanks for reading bro.
