It feels as though it's rushing to hit the important marks without letting things breathe, the characters aren't very convincing, and Moretz is probably too adorkable to be playing the creepy weird girl everyone avoids, but at least Carrie is played by an actual teenager this time and we also call Mama out for preaching shit that isn't actually found anywhere in the Bible so hey this one scores some authenticity points over the De Palma one at least.
