meh. Could take it or leave it.
Watched this one last night. I usually dont let my boyfriend choose movies but this one was a good choice. If you like a movie that makes you think...This is the one.
Be aware that this movie is more about suspense and thrills rather than horror. It tied up any loose ends I had with the original and was very well played out. No, the CGI isn't something you'd see in a $100 million dollar movie, and the actors aren't Robert Downey Jr. or Brad Pitt, but do their roles very well. If you pay great attention to details, they set things up for the original very very well. I was more than pleased with this movie, I loved it.
Interesting movie, although a little overdone on the graphics.
This movie was great! very suspenseful! and scary!!!!
Remakes - Remakes where was Kurt Russell (1982)when this new one was made ---- good special effects and entertaining however- it lacks one big "Thing" namely Kurt Russell as R.J. MacReady
very suspensful!!!
This is a horrible thing to watch.
Enjoyed. Thought it was intense at times.
good prequel, even though it is much like the original it has a good backdrop and gruelling effects loved it!
