I know it is weird, but I haven't seen the original so I really don't know how groundbreaking it was. I know the character Freddy as a cult icon and even with my meager knowledge of him I'm disappointed with his portrayal (and CGIs in 2010 at that too). And if in a horror movie you try to create tension at a document signing scene, you are doomed.

Taken by itself, the film's okay. Decent visuals, not too gorey, like most horror films you see these days. But not scary either. And not ridiculous enough to be funny. As a remake, it completely ruined the original story. Bad dialogue, no building up the tension, missed the whole point of the dream sequences; feels like they've sewn a bunch of scenes together in a hurry. It didn't work.

I have to say, the worst movie ever and completly ruined nightmare on elm street for me. freddy looked horrible and to me looked like a monkey with no fur. the actors and actresses looked like they were just pulled from the streets since they seemed they had no acting expreince at all.It got so boring for me that i was hoping a raccoon will pop up.

Well shot and Rooney Mara played her role quite well. But that's about it, you didn't actually care who lived or died. I believe they could have played with the idea of 'staying awake'. There are all sorts of things they could have down with that. Every second of a horror doesn't have to be doom and gloom. If we actually saw the characters have some fun or connect in anyway, it would have made the 'scary' parts more thrilling.

I can't find anything positive to say about this at all. Clearly, this was made solely to cash in on the Elm Street franchise recognition. This doesn't improve on the original in any area, the acting is pathetic, and there isn't a single character that the movie develops well enough to make the viewer care about them.

"Ol' Cuisinart Hand is back in A Nightmare on Elm Street, a pointless, unimaginative 're-imagining' of Wes Craven's cleverly conceived slasher movie."

While Haley is a quality actor, he's completely wasted here. They take all of the Robert Englund Freddy's charm and cheesiness away, and replace it with a legit pedophile who says all of his lines with 100% seriousness. It doesn't come off as creepy because Haley's makeup looks so fucking stupid, and the movie is predictable in the worst kind of paint by numbers way. Damn near worthless.

this one, if any classic horror movie, deserves to be remade more than almost any. the problem is the execution, it's not that i dont like haley, the problem is that englund has such a foothold on krueger that no one could ever pull it off, and that doesn't even mention the character that he puts into it. without englund i see this franchise going no further. unless they get a REALLY REALLY good replacement.

Even by the low standards of Platinum Dune, this is terrible - sleepwalking its way through randomly chosen scenes from the original, with absolutely no interest in its source material or ability to scare anyone older than 10. Though Haley was an inspired replacement as Krueger, the most menacing thing he gets to do, is making sparks with the knife-glove, while looking like a melted Barbie-doll.

There's just no excuse for this. Krueger is a shadow of his former, witty self in this horrible remake. It's a compilation of poorly executed attempts to recreate the best scenes from the original with a minimum of plot and no character development whatsoever. None of the suspense-chok cycles work and all they do is prevent the movie from going anywhere. How could they do this to one of the coolest movie monsters ever?

Even Jackie Earle Haley, who served up the only decent performance, could not save this; his role stilted by some very poor dialogue. The quality of the acting on show elsewhere was subpar. Perhaps the original Nightmare on Elm Street looks a bit dated now; at the time it was released, however, it was a pretty fresh and enjoyable entry in the slasher canon. This remake brings nothing new to the party, lacking the charm and, crucially, the scares of the original. Boring.

Hey the guy who plays Rorschach is now Freddy Kruger, awesome. Shame everything else about this movie sucks, no one can act and the script is awfull. Even Freddy's kills are boring and repetitive, if you're going to remake nightmare on elm street why omit the best kill scene in the whole slasher genre?

It does lack the charm of the original. And I actually fell asleep. The effects are nicer than in the 80s but that doesn't save it.

Exactly what I was expecting. A movie full of people in their mid-20s pretending to be 16. Not good but certainly not as bad as it could have been. Whoever decided to hire Jackie Haley made one of the best casting decisions ever. Whoever executed Haley as Kreuger and wrote the part for him made one of the worst mistakes ever. So under-used.

When this remake was announced, I immediately deemed it unnecessary and now that I’ve seen it, I still think the same. I was actually surprised how much it differed from the original film. None of the changes really made it any better though. They certainly tried to make it scarier and edgier, but it didn’t work. It was just one cheap scare after another and I was bored. And seriously, I like Jackie Earle Haley enough as an actor, but there is only one Freddy Krueger and it’s Robert Englund.

Sweet jesus this was awful. There are literally no positives to list here, it's all terrible. The acting, the pacing, the visuals, even the deaths are uninspired and boring! Easily the crowning fault of the film is Freddy himself. Sorry Jackie Earle Haley, stick to being Rorschach.

While it didn't please everyone I was more than impressed with this remake and I think it surpassed the original delivering a terrifying Horror film for today's generation. Freddy Krueger is such an iconic villain so its great to see him back in action, and Jackie Earle Haley does a great job portraying him. Storyline is also great with much more of a backstory this time, especially with Freddy's character. Overall a real treat for Horror buff's and Freddy fans everywhere!

Horrible and only redeemed by Jackie Earle Haley's earnest performance as Freddy. All the good stuff in the movie was done better in the original, and all the original stuff seems half baked at best.

Haley portrays Freddy as a LEGITIMATELY angry and vengeful spirit and not just the boogeyman, which is far and away absolutely WORTH watching. My main problem, without giving too much away: This movie seems to lean toward a different origin for Freddy, that would have made the movie a perfect stand alone piece, but in making this twist a red herring and playing to the lowest common denominator, the momentum died and the film is weaker than it could have been.

The original had some camp charm so they decided to dumb it down even more by going for an extreme version with jump scares every 5 minutes accompanied with loud screeching sound effects, cheesy gore, and doe-eyed breakout wannabe stars flopping around on beds trying to remember what they learned in method acting 101. One of the characters goes to jail half an hour in and then we're left to endure long emo scenes involving concerned adults, web browsing, and poorly acted moments of tension.

With a very good course and be faithful to the original, failed to overcome the classic 1984. A movie very modern and trendy, but leaving many questions unanswered. Questions answered only to the original.
