I went to see it.

I've actually not yet seen Wes Craven's "original" (as it must now forever be tagged) so besides having no personal stake against this new version, I must say that the word on the street was pretty good about this film (and the trailer I saw looked unsettling). So the wife and I went to see it, and we both hated it. For one thing it took forever to get started, and by the time things started coming alive we had come to dislike the main characters enough that we didn't care what happened to them anyway. Typical "false jump scares" were the order of the day, and what does happen to our doomed cast members goes way overboard on excess over suspense and terror, so this was pretty worthless in the end (and what a dumb end, too). To add insult to injury, before the movie we also were "treated" to the trailer for the equally-un-needed OMEN remake!
