Carrie (2013) Review
My Rating: 6.3/10 IMDb Rating: 6/10 Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 48% Metacritics Rating: 53/100 My Favorite Quotes 1. "Eve was weak say it!" - 2. Sue Snell: No! Carrie please don't hurt me. Carrie White: Why not? I've been hurt my whole life. 3. Miss Desjardins "What's wrong?" "I have been asked to prom." - Carrie This film is very similar to the original except it is set in a modern time frame. Which after seeing the original I thought it was very cool and kept it kinda fresh and the scenes weren't exactly the same. Making it a almost new movie in a sense. The acting was superb all around especially Carries mother. The beginning was intriguing, but unfortunately it kind of teetered off towards the ending. I was surprised at how good the special effects were apart from the car crashing into the gas station. The feeling felt towards Carrie and how the bullying was absolutely terrible. It was realistic in some ways but not in others. Overall the film was pretty good, but I still much preferred the original. |
