Review of Carrie

Carrie (2013)
6/10
Hard not to compare
22 December 2013
Let's begin with some History, this was Stephen King's first novel, he thought it wasn't a good one so the toss it to a trash can, his wife picked it up and send it to an editor, the rest is History. This IS the novel that made Stephen King famous, and back in the 70's with Brian de Palma film Carrie a milestone for horror was made. Even if the new generations haven't seen the original movie, everybody knows who Carrie White is and the epic blood shower. Now, back to this year 2013, new Carrie White seems to be updated to a more evil story with social media involved. What is good about this movie? Chlöe Grace Moretz, we love her and she is a great Carrie, though, I think Sissy Spacek did it way much better. What is questionable about this movie? Julianne Moore, Come On!!! She is one of the best actresses of our times, in my personal point of view she was way bigger for this role but she made it great as always. What is bad about the movie? The "upadte" of 2013's problem. This might be just me, but I think the story works in the time it was written, now I don't think a story like this can be "that" realistic as it was. So, the final verdict; good so-so movie if you don't know who Carrie is and all the story behind.
