I have to admit I watched this movie only because I'm a huge Sophia fan. But I actually liked it. I haven't watched the original so i can't compare them.
One of the things I liked in this version is that they didn't try to make it longer by adding unnecessary scenes in the beginning of the movie, which is something common in the horror genre. Watching this movie you get suspense and action from the beggining until the end, and I guess that's what people expect when watching thrillers. You can't expect them to make sense, because they usually don't.
Also, another thing i liked was the final scene, it was great.

This is a pretty entertaining film. It has a few very suspenseful scenes that I highly enjoyed. The plot was basic though, which I thought was disappointing. I felt that maybe the story could have expanded and been a lot more in depth. The film would have been great if those aspects were not involved. I am not saying that basic stories and plots in films are bad, I am just saying that it wasn't pulled off very well here. But to be positive, it was one of the most entertaining horror films out there. Just don't except Award winning material. Enjoy the film.

Just about the same plot structure as about 5 other films that were released in the same time period, the women gets away as the hero...which, is extremely ridiculous. The original was so much better.
