Neither this Hollywood remake nor the Danish original are classics - far from it - but this new one is actually better in its first two-thirds, better scaffolding the horror reveal and better filling in the nebulous plot of the Danish one with backstory and hints at what is to come - when horror finally arrives in the original, it is, in so many ways, so divorced from what has come before that it undid the tension ratchetted up so painstakingly in its first half.
★★★☆☆
