Let Me In (2010)
Matt Reeves directs this remake of the Swedish film Let the Right One In (2008) which stars Chloe Grace Moretz. I have previously reviewed the original here: http://qedmoviereview.blogspot.com/2011/08/swedish-scares.html
There is not a lot of departure from the original in this remake which is both a strength and a weakness. While the film is really well made and retains the feel and tone of the original you do have to wonder why you would watch this version rather than the original, presumably the only reason is if you are too lazy to read subtitles. It is hard to find any real fault with this film and as such you could probably watch either version and not miss anything from the other.
4/5 same again
