Review of The Thing (2011) by Ad V — 01 Sep 2012
Perhaps it was all the negative reviews or maybe it was the fact that I knew it would never compare to John Carpenter's superior film but I found myself not hating the prequel like I expected to. It has alot of problems (character development, acting) but the surprise came from what did not suck.
The effects while mainly CG were actually much better than the usual crap that the average film contains and the attention to detail was commendable keeping continuity for the most part with the events that would follow in Carpenter's film.
It's nothing great but it does make me want to rewatch the original film again so I guess that's something.
