Carrie (2013)

Stephen King’s Carrie gets a new life in this remake casting Chloë Grace Moretz as a teenage girl who discovers she has the extraordinary ability to move objects by the power of her thoughts alone, which eventually leads to mayhem and horror at her high-school prom. Boys Don’t Cry’s Kimberly Peirce directs, with Julianne Moore co-starring as Carrie’s overbearing mother.

“While it can’t hope to match the galvanizing impact of its predecessors, Peirce’s film works for a considerable stretch as a derivative but impressively coherent vision.” –Variety -Justin Chang

“Another remake that’s more like a pointless regurgitation than a fresh perspective.” — ReelViews -James Berardinelli
