Carrie (2013)
Twi and I watched this last night. It came on the TV and since neither one of us was in the mood to do anything but veg out, decided to give it a watch. I don't really want to compare it to the 1976 version, I'll just say, it was surprisingly good. Except the very end when her tombstone cracked, that was a terrible touch.
I liked Julianne Moore's portrayal of Carrie's mother, too. Her most memorable role for me was as Clarice Starling in the abortion of a movie that was Hannibal, and it was good to see that she can actually act, instead of just being the same character in every film. Overall, I'd say this is a remake which, while not perfect, actually manages to do it right, and can recommend it.
