Format: Blu-ray
Re-makes, for many including myself do often have a problem especially as in this case, the original is a genuine 'Horror' classic.
Well, they have deliberately tried to make it somewhat different but have not captured the genius that 'Wes Craven' brought to the screen way back when, the original did i feel have a greater sense of tension and shock built in along with a 'tongue in cheek' delivery.
This film doesn't quite capture the same atmosphere, yet it does have one or two 'jump out of your seat' moments, along with some brief spells of tension.
Watch it ? ---yes you'll enjoy it more if you don't try to compare it with the original 'Robert Englund' version.

Don't bother with remakes. This one is full of plot holes and continuity errors. It's not the same without Robert Englund.

Remaking a classic is always so difficult but Hollywood has been remaking movies ever since the studios were formed so complaining about remake after remake is pretty fruitless. This effort again backed by Michael 'put him in front of an audience and watch him cry' Bay and Platinum Dunes retells the story of ol Freddy Krueger. Not played for the first time by Robert Englund but instead by Jackie Earle Haley. The make up on Freddy is much more life like to a burn victim and Haley's movements are spot on but then he had to talk- his voice with the make up sounds like something out of a Troma movie. We don't get much characterization and because of that we don't care when they die- fatally though the remake dips to much into the original movies. It's one thing calling a character Nancy and another Jessie but its another thing repeating scene for scene some of the best moments from the first Elm Street and Part 4 most noticeably.

And here is where we have the problem- the best moments of the movie are culled from old re do's. The first half of the movie for what it is isn't actually terrible but the film falls apart around the 50 min mark and actually ends up being a drag- yes you will be looking at the time counter. Finally and on another depressing note most of the dream sequences are uninspired- most of them take place in the boiler room. So all in all it could have been much worse, but it could have been a refreshing exciting take and it doesn't work.

This horror reboot just fails to connect in the same way the original did. The music is haunting and subtle but the story didn't convey the isolation of Nancy to extent of the original, where 70% of her battle is actually with the adults and friends around her. This version lacks the tension and frustration of her relationship with both Mother and Father, the CGI looks fake and silly. Another problem is that Freddie can't go ten minutes without popping up and doing something, this ends up cheapening him, I'd have preferred for him to have been used a little more sparingly. The casting is slightly off too, our 'teenagers' just don't look like teenagers, but actors in their 20s pretending to be in high school. As the story progresses crying, shouting and stuttering have to substitute for drama and the final part where it's reveled that Kruger sexually abused the teens when they were in kindergarten felt totally out of place in a fantasy horror film.

A Nightmare on Elm Street * * *
New Line Cinema
1000121780 (UK edition)
RT 01:45

`One, two, Freddy's coming for you, three, four, he's at your door' - and so on. Newline brings back one of the cinema's biggest villains in this latest remake. Now, for someone who has seen every one of Mr. Krueger's films over the years, this had to be good. The new cast sounded promising, with Jackie Earle Haley playing Freddy, Kyle Gallner as Quentin Smith, Rooney Mara as Nancy Holbrook, Katie Cassidy as Kris Fowles, Thomas Dekker as Jesse Braun, Kellan Lutz as Dean Russell, Clancy Brown as Headmaster Alan Smith and Connie Britton as Dr. Gwen Holbrook.

The format this time takes us back to the originals roots, with teenagers terrorised in their dreams by Mr Krueger the moment they fall asleep. As anyone who has seen a Freddy film knows, death follows quite sharply afterwards, and indeed in this one after just 10 minutes. With the teenagers deeply troubled and the adults not believing them, Nancy begins to suspect that not all is what it seems. When her mother and the headmaster become evasive about her questioning of past events, it's up to her, Quentin and Jesse to unravel what's happening and to try and save them from Freddy.

As with any Freddy film, the mood is captured perfectly. From the initial diner set up, with a lovely switch in lighting, Dean is about to meet his maker. It's a credit to the director Samuel Bayer and his cinematographer that they convey just the right amount of tension for major shock value, and they deliver in spades.

What is interesting this time is the back-story of Freddy himself, which for most of the previous films they only skated over.

The film was awful and nothing like the original version the guy playing the lead was just awful in my eyes there's only one Freddy Krueger and that's Robert englund plus the plot was full of holes and errors as Freddy was burned alive in his bolier room after he was freed on a technicality like they said the lawyer got fat and the judge got famous as the warrant wasn't signed in the right place this film didn't mention that so that's why I don't think it was as good as the original version
