As Good As It Gets
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
She is the basic motif to see this not bad but far to be the most inspired version of Stephen King's Carrie. It is the film for young public. Not only for the presence of the every day technology, but for the traits of teenagers films. Julianne Moore has the virtue to remind the source. And Chloe Grace Moretz - to give a decent performance for a role who preserves deep shadow of great Sissy Spacek . maybe, I am too old for enjoy this version. Who must be for the desire to serve the new expectations of public. But the basic good points of it are the performance of Julianne Moore as the mother and the invitation to read (again) the novel.
Yeah it was probably unnecessary to do a remake of the film but the film itself was actually great! I think the acting was good on all levels. The mother was creepy as hell . Chloe was great as Carrie . You could actually feel the intensity through her facial expressions . Even the supporting characters had solid acting . It was definitely entertaining and better than other remakes I've seen
I am HUGE fan of the 1976 Carrie, when I think about Carrie, I think about Sissy Spacek specifically. I have also read the novel, seen the sequel (The Rage Carrie 2) and the TV version from 2002. When I first heard about the 2013 version being made, I was at first, very shocked, and wondered, why? Until I found out about the casting and the director. Chloë Grace Moretz being announced as Carrie and Julianne Moore being announced as Margaret White really got my attention, and then of course, so did Kimberly Peirce being chosen as the director. How interesting I thought it would be to find out that a female director would make a version of Carrie; a win-win especially since she also directed the award-winning film Boys Don't Cry. What increased my hype even more was the fact that we would be promised a film based ONLY on the novel by Stephen King, and NOT the original 1976 classic. The teaser trailer that came out on October 2012 even showed a bird's eye view of the town on fire, and narration of Carrie's acquaintances, and so I knew that this WAS truly going to be a FAITHFUL adaptation to the novel. However, on October 18, 2013 I was proved VERY wrong. What happened to this movie? That was one of the taglines for this film when it was being promoted, that is really my question. What happened to Carrie? This movie was totally an adaptation of the original film, NOT the novel, as promised. I was SHOCKED, not in a good way. And yes it's been stated many times, but it was so similar to the original that the original screenwriter (Lawrence D. Cohen) got credit. There were so many missed, wasted opportunities that happened with this movie. I was so happy to see a DIFFERENT version that took only from the book.Now, if the original film did not exist, this would be a decent movie. But, either way, let me start with the two stars: Chloë Grace Moretz as Carrie White. BIG MISTAKE. I love Chloë overall, she's super talented, she's brilliant in Let Me In, Kick-Ass, Hugo, etc. but she either should not have been cast as Carrie, or someone should have given more effort in making her look like a believable outcast. There's NO way that any guy in high school wouldn't want to ask her out, I just couldn't buy her as an ostracized, abused girl; and therefore the revenge scene did not work. Julianne Moore, however, was perfectly cast as Margaret; she brought many differences to the role and more personality that made audiences squeal. SPOILERS: The climax prom scene: The blood being dumped on Carrie, why did it look like jell-o? That's all I'm asking about that part. I will say, the deaths of the bullies was very well orchestrated. However, the bullies (Tina, Heather, Lizzy and Nicki, Jackie) were not built up very well, some don't even know who Tina and Heather are, everyone knows Lizzy and Nicki but only because they're twins. The deaths were very creative, but since the characters were not fleshed out, the meaning of the deaths became essentially insignificant. They made it very unclear that it was TINA who played the video of Carrie in the shower at the prom. And also, why were there so many survivors? Not to sound malicious, but during the prom scene, there are only supposed to be at most five survivors, pretty much everyone (but the bullies and Freddy "Beak" Holt, the boy with the camera) survived. This makes the story much less tragic. And what happened to George and Erika (the couple that was nice to Carrie at the prom)? Now, the showdown between Chris, Billy and Carrie was also well-done, I will say, the CGI was a little bit "video game-like" but watchable. Chris and Billy definitely got what they truly deserved in this version, so score for that! The showdown between Carrie and Margaret, however, was a bit disappointing. It was no different from the original. The confrontation between Carrie and Sue was also a positive of this version; the rain of stones should not have been done however, that was from the 1976 original script, NOT the novel. The rain of stones only happens when Carrie is a little girl in the novel. The last scene was very infuriating. Whoever approved of that ending should not have been a part of this movie, I'm talking about the one with Carrie's grave cracking and you hear Carrie screaming. That made no sense whatsoever; the alternate ending is not much better however, although it would have fit a lot more, then the movie would start with a birth scene, and end with a birth scene.If you have never heard of Carrie, or you have never seen the original or read the novel, you will probably enjoy this movie, I will say; mainly younger teens, in my opinion. But, if you are a die-hard fan of Brian De Palma's cult classic, then this is a very disappointing, and possibly even insulting movie. Apparently, the movie was supposed to be 45 minutes longer, involving more gory deaths, more destruction at the prom, the aftermath of the prom, and more social media. One video of Carrie getting her period was not enough to call this a modern version. It felt like it was done just because it was set in today's time. In fact, it didn't even feel like this movie took place in 2013, more like 2005. Proms don't take place at schools anymore. Overall, this was a very unnecessary movie, well, it reminds me of one thing: There is a much better movie that remains a classic even after 40 years for a reason to watch. Hopefully if/when the next Carrie remake comes (it will eventually), it'll be done right.
A shy girl, outcasted by her peers and sheltered by her religious mother, unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town after being pushed too far at her senior prom. Carrie is the remake of the 1976 film with the same name and stars Chloë Grace Moretz, Julianne Moore, Gabriella Wilde, Ansel Elgort and Judy Greer. As with every movie this days Carrie is one of the many Horror Films or Films in general that got a reboot and when it finally got released it face mostly mixed to negative reviews and i kinda understand why because some people found the film maybe boring or just unnecessary and OK i get it but personally even tho i haven't seen the original yet but i do want to i found this remake to be very entertaining but also quite dramatic because Carrie as a person is no Freddy or Jason she just wants to be left alone and she gets bullied in School every day and in the Prom she basically lost it and let me start first with the good stuff which is Moretz and Moore i think both women did an excellent job and sometimes they were pretty scary especially Moore who played the mother really well done and then we have Gabriella Wilde as Sue who personally i found to be a very nice person and i liked the fact that she forgave Carrie even in the end and she continued to support her threw out everything, Greer also gave a pretty good performance as the teacher too. The CGI for the most part looked pretty well done and the scenes in the Prom and the one with the Car were pretty cool but that doesn't mean that there aren't some moments were the CGI is kinda off and even some of the rest of the supporting cast was either okay or just meh but overall i found Carrie to be one of the best Horror Remakes that we have got for quite some time now it had some pretty good actors in it and the performances alongside the entire story were very interesting. If you liked the movie too that's great if you didn't that's okay too. Personally even if i had seen the Original i would have still enjoyed the Remake because even with some flaws here and there i think it was a hell of a movie that tried to built it's characters first and then give you the Horror/R-Rated Stuff. (9/10)
