I was going to Let Me In expecting to hate it. Something about the trailers and promotional material screamed "We don't get what the first one was all about!" Surprisingly, I ended up liking the new one a little better. They are extremely faithful, and the changes they do make are interesting and welcome. The boy is still kind of sociopathic, Chloe Moretz (who you may remember as Hit Girl from Kick-Ass) gives a pretty powerful performance, and it's generally messed up and heartwarming in the same ways the original was. I'd say go see it.
