I love J.Carpenter's The Thing and I saw it with an open mind. If you think this CGI effects are better then the 82 version you're .. I dont even have the words for it. And how it just exploads all the f******* time in this movie.

It looks like unfinished effects in almost all scenes. And if this movie didnt have the text: "1982 Antarctica" at the beginning I would never .. f*** it! I cant buy that. They listen to "Men at work" but they dress like the 90s.

. nice cover up movie. It feelt like the Elm Street remake at some points. Many pointless jump scares and they skipped character development. The only one I liked was Lars but he was outknocked 2/3 of the movie by Adebisi from Oz.

But I liked the joke in the beginning and I never heard that before. They could have built more suspense between the US and NOR people cuz they dont realize what they are saying in some scenes. It was an "Avarage" horror movie.

Nothing more and nothing less in my eyes.
