Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
edaseli As a vampire and vampire movie hater, I loved this movie so much. I saw it yesterday and the characters and the storyline were somehow so pure.
classicsoncall The DVD cover states that it's 'the best vampire movie ever'. Reviewers on this board call it the best vampire movie ever. Even vampires the world over call it the best vampire movie ever.For this viewer, something got lost in translation along the way. Maybe my problem, if I have one, is that I'm way beyond the average age this picture most likely appeals to, which I presume to be a primarily teenage and young adult crowd. Even though the story isn't really hard to follow, abrupt scene changes in the picture manage to disrupt continuity, thereby presenting a choppy narrative. There are the prerequisite nods to previous vampire lore which I was thankful for, like Virginia (Ika Nord) turning into a vampire after being bitten by Eli (Lina Leandersson), and then bursting into flames in the presence of sunlight. But then there was the whole thing with the cats going all feral at one point in the presence of an infected person. What's the deal there? Never heard of that before.If you want to go head to head with the best vampire movie ever, you'll have to reach all the way back to 1922 and the original - Max Schreck's "Nosferatu". That's the one I judge all vampire flicks against and very few even come close, though Bela Lugosi's turn as "Dracula" in 1931 is pretty respectable. I know those classics don't hold the same fascination for the blood and gore fans of present day, but sometimes more scares are achieved by suggestion than seeing it splattered all over the place. That's my take at least, and I'm sticking with it.
mpaulso This movie is amazing. It's hard to exactly put a finger on what makes its special but I believe it's a combination of a few things. The cinematography is excellent. The score flows well through the movie and really give it its feel. The story is one of the most unique I've ever seen. I was late to this movie but I am very glad I was finally able to enjoy it.
krutikanaidu Let the right one in is a Swedish movie directed by Tomas alfredson it is adapted by a book written by John ajvide I had watched a lot of vampire movies and series when I heard of this movie the title was interesting so I thought to watch it it's a romantic horror movie but not the adult romance it has tender friendship but true one it's a story about a 12 year boy (oskar )played by kare hedebrant who was horribly bullied in school falls in love with strange girl next door (Eli)played by lina leandersson every plot in the film is so beautifully played by every actor and supporting actor had done an incredible work some shorts of camera made the seen look believably realistic the cinematography was undeniably superb the swimming pool seen was memorable and terrifying !!must watch it . Its not like other vampire movies it's a classic traditional movie the silence of the film will keep you engage in the film their are not more computer visual effects it's only there where it is necessary which also makes the movie different and believable. If you are looking for a classic horror movie this is worth watching even if you are not fond of vampires .This movie shows the mixture of evil and goodness in very subtle manner i think it's a great movie I rated it 9 out of 10 because what I didn't like about the movie is the cats scene they were looking unreal and it was unnecessary scene. Other then I loved it .
