5/5 What Vampire Movies Are Made Of
  by C. Davis (Kansas City)
Let The Right One In is truly a masterpiece in my opinion, it really delivers an excellent story that kept me interested all through the film.

As a fan who has never read the novel, I had no expectations on my first viewing of this film and was not dissapointed.

There are all kinds of vampire films based on books right now and even though I have many that I enjoy, this one is very close to the top of my list.

For those who have yet to see Let The Right One In, when you first view this film please go in with an open mind and you might just enjoy it.

5/5 Translation is Key!!!
  by Seti (Seattle, WA USA)
I read the reviews on this DVD prior to buying and they were correct. The new release has both the theatrical translation as well as the original DVD translation and there is a world of difference. I've watched it with both versions and the movie is great either way but the theatrical translation is by far more satisfying.

4/5 Intelligent, nuanced tale of childhood friends and vampires
  by One-Line Film Reviews (Easton, MD)
The Bottom Line:

A movie where the undead are back to their former role of ghastly bloodsucking creatures (who don't sparkle, but that's another matter), Let the Right One In is passable as a vampire film but really impresses in its nuanced depiction of a friendship between two young outcasts who find solace in each other; be warned that it's often a very graphic film, but it's also often a very good one.

3/4

Let The Right One In Summary A fragile, anxious boy, 12-year-old Oskar is regularly bullied by his strongermates but never strikes back. The lonely boy's wish for a friend seems to come true when he meets Eli, also 12, who moves in next door to him with her father. A pale, serious young girl, she only comes out at night and doesn't seem affected by the freezing temperatures.Coinciding with Eli's arrival is a series of inexpli

Oscar, A 12-year-old Fragile And Bullied Boy, Finds Love And Revenge Through Eli, A Beautiful But Peculiar Girl He Befriends, Who Moves Into His Building. when Oscar Discovers That Eli Is A Vampire It Does Not Deter His Increasing Feelings And Confused Emotions Of A Young Adolescent. When Eli Loses The Man Who Protects And Provides For Her, And As Suspicions Are Mounting From Her Neighbors And Police She Must Move On To Stay Alive. however When Oscar Faces His Darkest Hour, Eli Returns To Defend Him The Only Way She Can.

The enduring popularity of the vampire myth rests, in part, on sexual magnetism. In Let the Right One In, Tomas Alfredson's carefully controlled, yet sympathetic take on John Ajvide Lindqvist's Swedish bestseller-turned-screenplay, the protagonists are pre-teens, unlike the fully-formed night crawlers of HBO’s True Blood or Catherine Hardwicke’s Twilight (both also based on popular novels). Instead, 12-year-old Oskar (future heartbreaker Kåre Hedebrant) and Eli (Lina Leandersson) enter into a deadly form of puppy love. The product of divorce, Oskar lives with his harried mother, while his new neighbor resides with a mystery man named Håkan (Per Ragnar), who takes care of her unique dietary needs. From the wintery moment in 1982 that the lonely, towheaded boy spots the strange, dark-haired girl skulking around their outer-Stockholm tenement, he senses a kindred spirit. They bond, innocently enough, over a Rubik's Cube, but little does Oskar realize that Eli has been 12 for a very long time. Meanwhile, at school, bullies torment the pale and morbid student mercilessly. Through his friendship with Eli, Oskar doesn't just learn how to defend himself, but to become a sort of predator himself, begging the question as to whether Eli really exists or whether she represents a manifestation of his pent-up anger and resentment. Naturally, the international success of Lindqvist's fifth feature, like Norway's chilling Insomnia before it, has inspired an American remake, which is sure to boast superior special effects, but can't possibly capture the delicate balance he strikes here between the tender and the terrible. --Kathleen C.
