Rosemarys Baby Digital

not nearly the psycho thriller of the Polanski original - why re-do a masterpiece in the first place? See the original

Commits the ultimate sin... it is BORING! The Roman Polanski version is a classic. I watched this hoping it would answer some lingering questions I had of the original, but found myself fast forwarding through most. Complete waste of time.

I really enjoyed this movie very much. It was nice to have a modern take on the original. Dont get me wrong, the classic version is the best, but this movie is also good. It had diversity. French culture, and a black and white couple. It was easy to hate the bad guys in the original, but it was harder for me to hate the bad guys in this one. Roman made sure that Guy showed Rosemary the support she needed, and Margot was such a class A manipulator coated in sumptuous caramel. The acting was more realistic, and better in some areas. The characters seemed more real. Guy clearly held on to a lot of guilt, versus the original Guy portraying a heartless bastard- but of course we all know that John Cassavetes was luscious, yet excellent at portraying a bastard in some roles. I felt that the modern Rosemary was more trusting and easily sucked into the deception, and then it was too late. However, I felt that the modern Rosemary should have taken longer to piece together the puzzle. She had it pieced together in about ten minutes, whereas the original Rosemary really entertained us while she took some time to piece everything together, more suspense. I was expecting to see a mutated demon-from-hell baby, but was surprised to see an angelic baby that could be featured in a Huggies commercial. Overall, 4 stars.

Everything was good

You cannot improve on the original, but Zoe Saldana is very appealing as the young woman who is taken in unwittingly by a coven that wants her to have a demonic child. Waiting for part two.

The movies is great at first I was confused about what was going on but I watched it over and it was the good mystery. The movie had me up in my seat the whole time.

Good

Great

Good movie-they did a nice job on this renake.

This version makes good use of Zoe Saldana, Carole Bouquet and Jason Isaacs. Not especially well done or interesting otherwise.
