The story itself was a rubix cube, and the photo from the photo booth was the first clue. This is where you start to find out how the relationship would insue. The story was that of "A Romeo and Juilet" curse. Were the love feels submerged. Or forbidden, they just don't allow such a love to exist with in two different seasons. One an aged Man, all grown up, but maintaining boyish thoughts. Because the love felt for her kept him on a lock. You find ways to keep your boyish charm, espically if the one you love, never stops holding your arm. The other, was a inquisitive young girl, with ageless eyes. Masking a fully grown vampires mind. Over the years, they had created a cover. I'm her father, and she's my daughter. Years ago though, he must have fell for her hard. This story is loaded with little reminders, back when he was only a boy, but never minders. We are in the present? A time traveler would wonder. Because now we see what must have happened between those two lovers. Even though the story is in the present. I am sure that is what will happen in the future. He has grown old, while her age, never seems to be solved. Do you think in his mind, he had ever questioned what had happened between her and father time? Now, a Life of routine, was all that he would see. Only to find the blood she would need. Like a Gurdian, keeping her safe inside, while he would go out at night. Dawning a dark mask, with holes for the eyes. A role suddenly to be preped for another. This led him to discover and wonder. Maybe I want to be caught. As she has found a new lover, in replacement of this old worker. We see flashing lights just over head, as we hear a passenger talking to a driver. The man in the mask lieing in the back seat, still contemplating; is this the end of me? With a roll and a struggle, the car is pinned, lieing there with a stranger. Who was going to become the young vampires next dinner. It's not everyday a car crash saves a rider. The man knowing his fate opens the mysersous canned jar, as the only way to escape the car would be a can opener. A Splash of acid acrossed his face, a burn, a singe, and no longer appearing apart of the human race. He had finally wished his fate, he had been caught. Now lieing there not putting up a fight. Just outside in the crisp cold air, with snow on the ground, a girl walks into a hosptial, with not a shoe to be found. We see the on call nurse at the desk, asking her self could it get any colder? "I'm looking for my father" was all that the young girl could utter. She didn't want everyone to know that her, and the old man once were lovers. That would only reveal her as a vampire. Time drags on, but like I said there are a lot of reminders. A long time ago when he was a boy, he had met a young vampire. I'm sure, a knock on the window, was all that she needed to convince the boy to let the right one in. Like a unfamialr sound, the knocking pulls him up from his lie down. It must have been ages of time, since he had last heard that sound. She has had permission for so long, until now. But, this time would be the last time. The faceless men with the courage, prepping to walk right up to the ageless vampire. He throws off his blanket, and strolls to the window. A calm cool wisk of wind through the wind, and a question. "Can I come in? The man grasping his throat, signing to her "Nope". The words can't be found, his body has been ripped apart from years of service. But this will not leave her in the lurch. This was not the end of the story, there was a new one to follow around. As the vampires curse in itself, curses all those that fall prey to the spell. That at the end, will always conclude with a fall.

This is a good movie. Although there is something that isn't realistic. The bully guy Kenny is way to cruel for a bully. Now I know bullies can be cruel but I doubt that they would be this cruel unless if they were straight up abusive which this guy is. And you know what makes this worse? when the movie was giving dept to this character like when it's revealed that Kenny is bullied himself the movie immediately drops that and it's just him being abusive again. If the movie actually gave more depth to this character than I could feel sympathy for him but no. If the movie revealed that Kenny was abused by his father or something than that would make his actions a lot for justified and understandable but no. Also the movie never gives an explanation for why our main character gets bullied anyway which makes this guy even of an asshole. Anyway there are a few other things that I don't like for example the lighting for the lights outside wasn't very good and the camera work felt kinda weird and unnatural to me but the bully cheractor is the biggest problem I have with this movie.But overall this movie was good. The chemistry between oan and annie was great and I like the mixture between horror and romance.

Well, it's a very well made remake, i need to admit that (besides the unnecessary CGI). But here is my problem with American remakes of foreign flicks in general: Some people say this movie promotes the original, despite the fact that I didn't see any mentions in it (could have missed it?), so there will be people watching this without even knowing it's a remake. And even if it had mentioned the original, I don't think the best way of doing it is by making another WHOLE movie, for me sounds more like getting the chance to profit on someone else's idea. Besides all that, the original is still quite better in every aspect, what makes this piece totally unnecessary and pointless in my opinion. Well, I recommend you to at least go see the original "Let The Right One In (2008)" first if you are still going through this one, unless subtitles are a big deal for you.

Let me in-quite possibly the first movie to see in theaters that made me cry in a good way because I loved the movie. I never really heard about this movie until my Grandma persuaded me to see it,not only was it a really good movie,it was actually a movie that changed my inner self,because before I saw this movie,I felt real selfish and all that. But it's pretty funny...on how a movie,and this specific movie would make me feel different about other people. When I saw this movie,I was seeing that it was about a lonely kid who meets this girl who is also a vampire. But instead of trying to make it scary,they made it really social,emotional,and sad. But not scary. It was quite bloody for sure for being a vampire movie,but it wasn't scary at all. Even if it wasn't the best horror movie ever,it was still the best and first emotional movie I have ever seen and cared about.
