    I didn't care for it. The book's the best. All they did was get a hotter girl to play Carrie and a less creepy religious mother. Although Julianne Moore didn't do half bad, she's no Piper Laurie. That woman has made an appearance in some of my worst nightmares as a child.

    Just wasn't enough reason to make this, since we didn't get to see the new Carrie's naughty bits. Ole DePalma used to be quite the ballsy filmmaker putting bush during the opening credits, possibly just to piss Jack Valenti off.

    Extremely ballsy. Could you see that happening today? Only in foreign language films.

    There's less nudity in the Rated R category of American filmmaking now for sure. I bet you see more full-frontal in an HBO series than you do at the theater. Likely too many producers and marketing people worried about their jobs to allow something like this in the opening scene of a big movie today. Of course,we have fewer thirty year olds playing high schoolers in high school movies these days too.

    What's ironic is this cleansing of Hollywood is at a time when the public, and the young American girl, is anything but shy with graphic nudity. Any father with a teen daughter that has a functional webcam and active internet connection is on an all-expenses-cruise down the river Denial. All the fuss being made over that Duke University freshman...I keep waiting for the story to break that puts that in the "so what?" category it deserves to be in because what's being done for free, out in the burbs, by daddy's little girl is where the real story is. I guess America just isn't ready for the truth.

    I enjoyed this version of Carrie. Chloe was great in the role and Moore scared me well enough.

    Yeah, it wasn't bad. I just wish there was more to it to differentiate it somehow compared to the original. There's a more rushed, lighter feeling to the pacing and performances that makes it feel less serious than the original, which feels like horror for adults while the remake is more for kids and young adults.

    I do wish Chloe didn't have to do such extreme posing while she was using her mind bullets. Chloe is built unusually, with really wide shoulders and seemingly longer arms than seem normal (kinda the opposite of Natalie Portman, who has short arms for her torso and head), so doing the same pose as Sissy looks caricatured by comparison.
