underrated because it's a remake


I know that a lot of people are prejudiced against Hollywood remakes of non-Hollywood films, including myself most of the time. But when these remakes are praised, I give them a chance and sometimes they turn out good (like Let Me In) or even better than the original (like The Ring). This film was far better than the Mexican original and a good film in itself. If it wasn't a remake and was a totally original film, its rating would definitely not be 5.8, it would be higher I think.

It definitely stands up on its own merits, and has an artfulness not seen in the 2010 original

no hype about this movie, I see some of the review praise this movie cuz of its so-called "original script" not knowing that this is a remake from mexican movie.

THRILLER IS MY FOOD!
