Netflix's "Man on Fire" remake garners mixed reviews, continuing audience preference for the original

Netflix's "Man on Fire" TV remake has a lower audience score than the 2004 film, continuing a trend of audience preference for the Denzel Washington version. The new series, starring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, holds a 74% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, compared to the 2004 film's 89%. Critics, however, are more divided on the remake. Despite the audience score, the series is the best-rated adaptation by critics and has the potential for future seasons, unlike the previous film versions.
