"Funny and scary — and sometimes both at once — it lives up to the original, even if it fails to surpass it."
"Slick popcorn horror, faithful to the fun and flair of the original."
"It's smart and funny, but (unlike the original) instantly forgettable, and, crucially, not remotely frightening."
"It is entertaining, thanks to superior CGI effects and, most of all, Farrell’s knowing and understated performance."
"This lifeless 3D remake of Tom Holland’s 1985 horror-comedy never matches the original’s creaky, camp charm."
