Customer Reviews

You can telekinesis. But will she listen?

Margaret White (Julianne Moore) has a passionately unique interpretation of life. She imparts her wisdom and moral code to her daughter Carrie (Chloë Grace Moretz). This and the fact that Carrie is exceptionally shy place Carrie in a unique position to be the target of bullying. Naturally, she does not take the situation too well. As with most of Stephen King’s characters, puberty hits her hard, and she gains the unique skill of telekinesis. It is unlikely that you have missed both the book and the earlier, adaptive movie. However, in case this is true, you will just have to see how the story unfolds from here. Each rendition of the story has its audience. In this film, they push the bullying theme to the nth degree, even over the spookiness. However, the story is not too compromised from the original. It is a toss-up as to whether the gory scenes were realistic, exaggerated, or just gratuities. I thought Julianne Moore and most of the actors hit their mark. Grace Moretz was good also, but just a tad too cute for the part. This is one of those films that you are too busy anticipating the first time through to appreciate the details, and it needs a second viewing.
