This movie was just too long and drawn out. I can think of at least 5 scenes that they could have cut out completely and it wouldn't have hurt the movie at all. I love vampire movies, but this one fell way short on entertainment. |

Let the Right One In - a review |
|
Though this movie has circulated all of the arthouse theaters and living rooms of true horror fans, I still feel as though I should pay some homage to this refreshing foreign film. Let the Right One In is frightening because it lets itself be frightening. It doesn’t force feed eerily edited images and try to spook with a simple scene. If you’re not sure what I mean by this, check out the girl found in the closet from The Ring or even better, in Jacob’s Ladder when Tim Robbins is in the hospital in the basement and he sees demons, especially the one shaking its head manically to the point of revulsion. LtROI allows the plot to propel the film and its frights come in relation to the niceties of the romance and the subplot of the vampires domestic life. It feels like a Lasse Hallström m... |

Let the Right One In |
|
To take a story based on Vampires and turn it on its head into something truly original, is an achievement in itself. But to make it into a great piece of cinema is remarkable. Its cold but with a dread sense of warm blooded love. Between the two lead characters, there are moments so intimate and heartwarming that the idea of this being a horror film just falls away. Its a drama, with elements of horror, not the other way around. Beautifully crafted, this film will stand the test of time. |

I saw a lot of previews at independent theaters for it. Looked interesting to me...much better than most American vamp movies. |

I'd rather watch this than "Twilight." Fortunately, it's playing on the small theater at UCI. Maybe I'll check it out this weekend. |
