Suffice it to say, Let Me In set the bar - as far as I can tell - on Americanizing a movie. Kudos to Matt Reeves for staying as close as possible. It gives me hope for The Millennium Trilogy. Hopefully, Fincher can do the same.

Let's be honest, if Let Me In was an original film, it would have scored 97-99% on RT. As it wasn't, only 85%. Americanized or not, ★★★★★.
