Review of Let Me In (2010) by Erwin S — 10 Jul 2012
Let me start by saying that when I saw this film I had neither read the novel or seen the original film. I did not even know that this was a remake until I looked up reviews after.
Really the only reason I watched this movie was because I was a fan of Chloe Grace, and I was very skeptical when I saw it was directed by Matt Reeves of Cloverfield fame, because I hated that one, and to this day it is still probably the worst movie I've seen. I loved it. I thought all of the actors did a great job. Really the only bad thing about this movie is that it is a remake and will never be held to the same standards as Let the Right One In.
As soon as I saw Let Me In, I rented Let the Right One In because people said it was a masterpiece and this was a rip-off. I was disappointed, though this might be because I saw the remake first. I think I liked this one better because it was easier to get into because it was in English and I didn't have to read subtitles.
Overall I was very impressed with this movie and feel that it is a worthy, if not superior remake.
