It wasn't as good as any of the Saw movies, but then I didn't expect it to be.

Old Nightmare on Elm Street is best
A highly imaginative horror film that provides the requisite shocks to keep fans of the genre happy.
Nice try but I'm sure you're not a Variety critic http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117793510?refcatid=31
This film was just shit. Never saw the originals and don't think I'll plan to. I'm not a hater of remakes. In fact in some circumstances I encourage them because some horrors from the 70's are just unimaginable now.
The 2010 re-imagining of A Nightmare on Elm Street was beyond any contemptible review critics gave it. Not once did I show any emotion, just sat there for 1.5 hours wondering if it will improve. I rented this and decided to watch the featurette "Freddy Krueger Reborn" first. After watching it I had high hopes that this might be a tolerable film. There wasn't even any startling moments. The "Boo" scene where Nancy is in the closet wasn't even timed properly. Usually there's a sudden rush movement then the score quickens its pace.
Also, he's a pedo? What the actual fuck! This is an insult to the slasher fest genre
"Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music"
Guess I'm the only one here that liked it. But then again I've been a fan of Freddy since the 80's, so even if the film did suck(or the older ones) I probably wouldn't know it.
