Critic Reviews

Amy Taubin

A smart, realist drama -- I wouldn't be surprised if this one winds up on my 10-best list for '99. Read full review

Owen Gleiberman

Emily Bergl plays the misfit heroine -- pale Goth grrrl Rachel Lang -- with a nicely sulky empathy, equal parts hurt and hope. Read full review

Lisa Alspector

Even as you're wincing at what you thought was misguided earnestness, it's being subverted by filmmakers who've turned many of the genre's weaknesses into tiny triumphs. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

It's not a cheap rip-off -- it's a credible sequel to a horror classic, and a sad reminder that some things never change. Read full review

Susan Wloszczyna

The original was a Midol moment, this is a Prozac exercise. [12 March 1999, Life, p.8E]

Ray Conlogue

It's possible to insult even a teenager's intelligence. Read full review

Marc Savlov

Toils in high school hell and doesn't even manage to come up with one good shock. Read full review

I really liked this movie. It brought a new spin from the original while still maintaining the essence of a revenge movie. Both films were very enjoyable and I got what I asked for in a sequel, a lot of the same with a new coat of paint. If you loved the first one and are hoping forI really liked this movie.

This is a guilty pleasure of mine. I know it's bad, I know it was an unecessary sequel, that no one was asking for, but I think it's a movie that is so bad, it's good. I do enjoy this movie.

La original Carrie estuvo llena de magia y esplendor, era de esperarse que una secuela genérica y cargada de estereotipos no iba a dar buenos frutos, pero rescato lo bueno, la chica que hizo de Rachel estuvo bastante bien en comparación del resto de personajes, el personaje de Sue fue meroLa original Carrie estuvo llena de magia y esplendor, era de esperarse que una secuela genérica y cargada de estereotipos no iba a dar buenos frutos, pero rescato lo bueno, la chica que hizo de Rachel estuvo bastante bien en comparación del resto de personajes, el personaje de Sue fue mero fan service y pasó sin pena de gloria, pero al menos es una película bastante entretenida como mucho.… Expand

Making a sequel to a famous movie shouldn't be only an excuse to make a movie but that's what we have here. "Carrie" was a remarkable film when it debuted but was being forgotten over time.

"Carrie" was a remarkable film when it debuted but was being forgotten over time. This was a sequel attempt but any resemblance to "Carrie" is mere coincidence, as it repeats the same story with another girl, Rachael Lang, blending everything with the usual ingredients of the obnoxious teen movies. And just like "Carrie" or any slasher teen movie, everything ends in carnage, with gore to the liking of teenagers without brains and who use their genitals to think. Boring and predictable are two adjectives we can use for it Frankenstein plot, as strange as the breeding of a mare with a zebra. The ending is rather exaggerated and forced. The main character, Rachael, never really gets connected with the public, so her life or death is something that doesn't bother us. The film makes a lot of effort to look scary but it's like a magician show: huge show off that brings nothing new. The actors aren't necessarily good but their work is OK. Conclusion: Its a teenage film that is on the borderline between mediocre and bearable, using the fame of an old film in an inglorious way.… Expand

Bottom Line: Irrelevant to the classic, a good one for even Carrie fans to skip.
