I’ve seen Carrie about ten years ago, the first film was conduct on 1976 with Sissy Spacek as a star and she plays well. So I wonder if this 2013’s Carrie does the same. Moreover, I give some recommendation for my wife’s boss that asked me about this film, so if it’s not good as I think I know the shame will be mine…
Carrie was adapted from King’s debut novel. He was 26
years old when he was paid for the right of that film, and from since his name
rise to the top level of the great novelist in US. And like king at that time,
Sissy Spacek was also 26 when she appears on the movie to role Carrie at 15.
But one thing I like from this movie is Chloe Grace Moretz who played Carrie on
this 2013 movie is on the same age as Carrie in the novel.
The idea is simple but splendid in plot. It’s about a shy girl that always mock and being object for her friend to bullies, her lack of knowing about her period one day turns out to be horrified moment and she was thrown up by many of her friend in the school bathroom with tampon.

Tampon?
Yeah sure is…when
King wrote the novel in early seventy, woman at that decade majorly was using
tampon to handle their period, but funny thing when I see this movie the girls
thrown Carrie with pad like Softex…that’s different thing…the script writer probably
want to prevent what King write for the tampon but it show inconsistency when
he / she make some scene when Chris and her friends uploading Carrie’s bloody tragedy,
which recorded by Chris, to Youtube….something that can’t be done in first
Carrie because there’s no Youtube in those days
A shy girl Carrie
taught very hard by his mother to perform her religion, such pray and reading Bible, sometime by force and the violence sometime doesn’t make Carrie
uncomfortable with her life. And by that condition she finally realized that
she had extraordinary talent to move things. She’s looking more about her ability
and train it so the power become greater…something that made her mother
terrifies because she think it comes
from evil.
Carrie knows that
her mother try to kill her if she knew about her telekinetic power so the girl
hide it well until she can’t stand the argument when Tommy Ross, Sue Snell’s
boyfriend and the most popular guy in school, asked her to go to the promp,
something that every girl has dreaming for, moreover she like Ross very much so
how she can say no to the handsome guy like that?
Every decision
had consequences. Carrie had to deal with the mother’s anger so she pushed to
show her ability to control the situation, in order to get her wish to go out
with Tommy Ross on that special occasion. The girl prepare the whole thing to
make the special day happened but one thing she doesn’t know that her enemy,
Chris, also preparing something awful to her for the promp.
Best scene I’m
waiting at this movie is when Carrie was showering by pig blood from atop. Like
the first movie, this one also makes a number of times to repeat the scene. And
the best part is to see when the girl was furious by the mocked, moreover when
she saw Tommy Ross was dead after the bucket hit him, I don’t understand why a
bucket that fell from above could kill people if it’s empty anyway, perhaps it
made from an iron or there’s some fatal spot on human’s head that injured
people when it got hit, but I enjoy her rage when she’s settles the score by
murdering those who insulted her one by one. Forget about some tiny mistake
about blood stain on Carrie’s face that change couple times between shot but I
do like to see the style of carrie when she demonstrate the power…she’s
devil-like indeed…
In such anger, I think Carrie was not carry away because she can shove her madness to the people she hate most, but not with them who always nice to her like Mrs. Dusjardin or Sue Snell. The end of this rage was obviously to catch the girl who did this to her, Chris and finished her for good, something that wasn’t hard at all for mighty Carrie.

At the end,
Carrie was buried inside the house after she defended herself from her mother
that try to kill her, because she think Carrie become a witches whose power
getting greater, and I ‘m glad they’re not doing the same mistake like Texas
Chainsaw Massacre. On Carrie’s tombstone written like this, Born : 1998, Died :
2013.
Like I said on my
BlackBerry status, Carrie is still Extra Ordinary and it’s mustsee movie class…
