I thought Chloe pouted a lot, but I liked this Version. And the song during the credits, I Can Hardly Make You Mine by Cults, is so good that it makes me like the movie just a little bit more. Not sure how far off from the book it is. I haven't read it (as I've mentioned before, I'm saving Carrie for the last "unread" book I read by SK.) The kids looked like kids in this one.

Better than the DePalma version I thought from a story and character perspective, it was just lacking that bit of style that DePalma's had.
