Good, But Not as Good as the Original

"Halloween H2O" takes place twenty years after the events in the original "Halloween".  Jamie Lee Curtis returns in this installment as Laurie Strode.  She has faked her own death and is now head mistress at Hillcrest, a private school in California. She also has a seventeen-year-old son named John (Josh Hartnett).  Each Halloween, Laurie is forced to remember the events of twenty years earlier, but this year proves different from previous ones; Michael has returned.  After breaking into a nurse's house in Illinois and obtaining information on Laurie, Michael has made his way to Laurie's school.  Once there Michael goes on another killing spree while trying to find Laurie.
I thought this movie was good, but not nearly as good as the original.  This movie did have some good parts, and some of the scenes were good, but I was left wanting more at the end.  Also, this is a very short move (only about 80 minutes), and I think the producers could have done a better job if they would have made it a little longer.  On the plus side, it was nice to see Jamie Lee Curtis back in the Halloween series, and she does give a good performance, as does Josh Hartnett.
I'm sure that horror movie fans will like this movie, just don't expect anything like the original.

Doesn't work as smoothly as the original.  I bought a new bowl to go with it, and they just don't mate very well, so it's difficult to fully close so the machine turns on.  And then it's difficult to twist the cover off too, especially with wet hands.  The original worked fine.  Beware.

Doesn't seem to be as good as original, but good enough. After replacing old one which was like new, my vacuum is now much louder and vibrates more. This roller may not be as true as the original. I only did it it because my good friend needed one for her Oreck, so I installed my roller in hers, and put this replacement in mine.

Enough of this American remake differs from the original to make it fresh, and yet it honors the material in the first well. A little more backstory is told. The dreariness of the original isn't quite here and the original still gets the top rating but this is a close 4 of 5 stars. If you liked the first, you will have no problem enjoying this one. If you never saw the first, you should see it first... and then make this Let Me In your close second to watch next.

Not as good as the original.  Had this for 6 months and the blade pin is loose. Makes a high pitch squeal whenever I use it. Well have to start looking for a new one. It appears to be the same product as the original but doesn't last anywhere near as long.

Not as much fun as the original, but still worth a look. I probably should have turned on subtitles, as the dialog went so quickly and my built-in UK ==> American English translator was having difficulty keeping pace. I likely missed many stellar lines.

The original game was a little bit easier to follow than this one. The graphics on the DVD aren't that great but it's fun.

I liked the original but the follow-up was a little more ho-hum, albeit with the ability to create a few chuckles. My younger daughter enjoyed it far more.

OK, BUT NOT AS GOOD.  MOST REMAKES DON'T MEASURE UP.
OK FOR SOME PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T SEEN THE "ORIGINAL" VERSION.

The first bioshock was a hard act to follow and this one didn't quite live up to it's predecessor. The story was quite similar to the original (with a differen villain) and the enviornment design lacked the interest of the original. Still it was a good game and worth if for no other reason than being able to see the amazing world of Rapture again.

This is a worthy sequal, full of the laughs, humor, and emotion of the original.  However it still lacks in other areas, such as a poor, sudden, conclusion; and a slow start.
The storyline of this movie is fairly close to that of the original.  One of the last mainstays of Americana, the corner barbershop, is being threatened by big developers who want to put a chain store across the street.  Barbershop 2, however, is less about the story and more about the characters.  And the characters are truly larger then life.  You will fall in love with each of them and their idiosyncracies.  They all return from the original, and that's the main reason this move gets an above average review.
It started slow but quickly picked up steam.  I was suprised by the sudden ending, however, and would have preferred that it continue for at least another ten minutes.  Overall, though, a good movie well worth seeing.

Steel cup and blade are not as sturdy as the original. The lip of the steel cup is not as smooth as the original. The plastic lid is not tight, but we are supposed to hold it anyway. The price is fair.

Not as good as the original, but happy to see so many of them are still alive and make an appearance.

Sometimes sequels are better than the originals. This one definitely falls in that category. There more great 1-liners, too.

Bought this with the hope that it would last considerably longer than the original battery that came with my HTC Incredible.  It is better, but not as much as you would expect with a 3500 mAh rating.  It and the case are thicker and a little heavier than the original but that is not a big deal.  We'll see if it gets better or worse over time.

Not as good as the original that came with the unit, but better than the worn out worm we had been using.
