This is basically 'let the right one in' without subtitles .i prefer the original



It became like a sort of prison. Encased in a silver shell, words so full of bleeding need spilled like drops on dry leaves. And all the while laughter prevailed a long way from here. Nowhere land, nowhere time, nowhere space.

I heard it was remade from an original movie, but, I wouldn't be able to watch the foriegn version, I wouldn't be able to concentrate on the movie and subtitles, at the same time. I'll have to settle for this, which looks amazing.

Usually, unnecessary remakes of foreign films suck, but I might give it a shot.

I loved the original, but I'm still going to go and see this - it does look like it'll be pretty good. When I went to MovieCon in the summer Chloe Moretz was there to talk about it and it sound like it stays pretty faithful to the sentiment of the original.

But I still don't see why they felt the need to remake a film that was made so recently.

What type of remake it this? One where they shoot it almost exactly scene for scene, or have they changed it a bit?

it doesnt look as good as the original.I dont like subtitles much but the original was excellent and well received all round.This remake is pointless in my opinion .It looks like it takes the story pretty much scene for scene .but the young boy and girl in the first one ,I mean there was real snow there ,it was more atmospheric and believable .the mood was also quite dark due to where it was set ,they will not achieve this with this film I dont think

I'm looking forward to it. I've always wanted to watch the original, but I'd have to concentrate on both the movie and the subtitles, which I can't do.

I can tolerate remakes, but this soon after the original?

On a side note I think Chloe Moretz is a great little actress, one to watch



just because you've forgotten doesn't mean you're forgiven

The original was brilliant, but I don't think I'll bother watching the remake. Wouldn't want to taint the memory of this film.

I watched it the other day. I was extremely dissappointed. I had been so excited for nothing.

Nothing like the original...I went to see it but it was disappointing.
