You took the words out of my mouth. I thought book was better than the first film which was a mediocre 80's action movie. I liked it but the draw of the first film was more about Arnold than the actual quality of that movie. Also, this is Edgar Wright. These two things alone make it worth a look IMO.

how dare you!

but seriously, i love the original, but the book is SOOOOOO much different from the movie, that I'm more than fine with a closer adaptation to the book. And if you want to know how different... and this shouldn't be a spoiler because it's literally impossible for this to happen in the movie now... but the book ended with the main character flying a plane into the WORLD TRADE CENTER! So, yeah, the general set up for this movie is the same concept but if can go anywhere and I love the cast enough and still have enough curiosity about an Edgar Wright movie, so I'm down to see what this version looks like.
