Let Me In

(2010) ****1/2
This beautifully acted and evocative American remake of the 2008 Swedish film "Let the Right One In" won me over despite my initial skepticism; while maintaining much of the overall plot and feel of the original, "Let Me In" succeeds in its own right.

I'm so glad to hear that it's good. I know landshark liked it last year, but he had not seen the original at the time. This is in my queue for this year and I look forward to comparing the two.

Excellently succinct review, AC!

Perfect start, I liked the film too.

Whoah, jeez, a one-sentence review on the first day! AC is not screwing around.

I need to see this, too.
