I've only seen short clips of the John Carpenter movie, and I never really liked it as a horror film. Despite popular and critic ratings, I found this movie to be well-acted and well-paced. The drama that unfolds between the stalked humans is entirely realistic and yet unpredictable, a rare combination for this genre. The CG is also well done and not overwhelming, and it doesn't sully the lead actress' command of a solid script. If you're a genuine horror film fan, you will probably enjoy this.

FUCK this movie. I spent the peak of my high watching the first 20 minutes thinking it was the original. I've seen the original, but I just assumed I hadn't payed any attention to the intro the first time around

It's actually not a dissappointing remake, and this one led me to watch the original, while being entartaining on its own, so hats off.

This movie made me jump once. It was early on, when one of the guys says 'boo' at the other one, before the monster shows up. That's right: its only effective jumpscare is an unintentional one. I watched this at midnight and that night I slept like a baby. It's just not scary. The final monster has a middle-aged man's face embedded in it, for God's sake. It's just stupid. This movie is trying so hard to be Alien.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead is always welcome. I thought the film would be worse actually; it's not good, but it does have some really cool visuals and some alright performances (particularly Winstead's... duh) and idk, i feel like they actually kinda tried? you know, these sort of remakes/prequels of older horror films are usually so uninspired and monotonous, but, albeit this one also feels that way as well sometimes, i think it has a bit more merit... particularly because of Winstead i guess idk.

Take an excellent movie and replace everything good about it, the music, the effects, the direction, the acting, even the titles and the dog, and replace it with shite. The score isn't lower because although I loathe to give it the credit, the story is still a great idea.

2011’s The Thing is one of the more inferior reboots of recent memory. While not entirely bad, The lack of atmosphere and very poor CGI affects stick out like a sore thumb. On top of that, a story arch that feels way too similar and subpar acting at best outside of Winstead and Edgerton, The Thing (2011) doesn’t do it’s original any justice. It lacks far too many elements to sement itself in horror today, and outside of the “The Thing” franchise die hards, this won’t be remembered.

The thing (2011) is to the thing (1982), what the thing (the thing in the thing (1982)) is to terrestrial organisms: looks identical at first, but when "things get hot", it's just a cheap imitation with strange tentacles coming out of its anus.
