Review of Carrie

Carrie (2013)
1/10
An absolutely terrible remake
13 April 2014
One of the most disappointing remakes I've ever seen. When the original Carrie was first released, it terrified audiences and gave people nightmares. This remake will make viewers laugh out loud as they appreciate the terrible special effects, atrocious plot development, weak acting and poor overall production. This remake had so much potential to be incredibly interesting, but all Carrie 2 could manage to be was a sad attempt to modernize a story that didn't need modernizing. Julianne Moore's performance is disturbing but well-intentioned, and Chloe Moretz does the best she can with the terrible script she was given. The mother-daughter relationship is almost interesting, but falls flat and leaves the viewer terribly bothered to have spent +$5 on such a poor film.
