Honestly, this movie was a total disaster.
I’ll admit, I did jump a couple of times, but I don't really watch horror movies much, and those sound effects? Absolutely brutal. 😁
The plot was just nonsensical, the tickets were way too expensive, and the 3D effect barely shows up in a few scenes. Plus, my eyes were killing me from wearing those glasses, and all the "horror" basically just boils down to loud, dramatic music and people getting slaughtered. 👎

Good grief, this movie is absolute trash! 🙂 Those "action" sequences where everyone just moves around at high speed look like a cheap reconstruction from some low-budget local news broadcast, filmed with the same amateurish, non-cinematic camera work. 🙂 Honestly!
And the acting? Please. People in a small town in rural Alabama could act better than this 🙂 except for Jen, obviously.
There are liters upon liters of blood everywhere—hello, what year is it? The 80s are long gone. 🥳 Who actually gets scared by blood these days? Three fucking year-olds? ☕

The 3D was fun for a few scenes, but that’s not enough $13 to make it worth a damn. The subtitles were a complete disaster because they were so flat; they looked like they were stuck in the background while the film played "forward." It was painful to watch, and honestly, you're better off ignoring them.
The idiots at the theater didn't even stretch the film from edge to edge on the screen, so you're stuck looking at those two fucking annoying black bars on the sides the entire time, which the 3D glasses only make even more irritating. For real 3D, you shouldn't see anything but the screen itself, and I guess I still have to wait for IMAX for that.
Furthermore, the film looks washed out and dull because of the glasses themselves; trying to make out any detail in an image that poor is practically impossible.
What can I say, I'm a visual bitch. 😬

On a personal note, I had a blast because, just like Brandon Rivera11 said, we spent the whole time commenting on and trashing the movie. At one point, the entire damn theater was talking—not whispering or being quiet, but actively talking and critiquing. That tells you everything you need to know about how much this film immersed us in the plot.
And in the end, of course, there was Jen, the reason for our little outing, looking pretty, pretty as ever.

I haven't checked it out yet, just wondering—does the movie actually follow the original plot, or was the first one just used as a loose framework for something totally different?

The story is more or less the same, and it even includes a few scenes lifted directly from the original.

If you ask me, the movie is highly entertaining—bloody kills and an excellent killer. Honestly, I find it slightly better than the original. It’s true that the film is full of clichés and naive, stupid moments, but please, what slasher isn't? If you don't enjoy Friday the 13th, Scream, or similar films, then don't bother watching this.

I actually loved it
👍👍👍

3D is the future. Period. People acted like it was some gimmick, but it’s just like when sound first hit theaters or when color movies became a thing—everyone hated it at first. History is repeating itself here.

The plot is actually pretty engaging, the acting holds up, and let's be honest—the guys are hot. Between that and the naked trucker scenes? Plenty of reasons to tune in.😬
I wouldn't be surprised if this movie sparks a whole new fetish for blue-collar uniforms—maybe even those rugged mining outfits.
😬

Those 3D forest sequences are gorgeous.
The tension inside the mine is palpable.

My only gripe is that a few shots came out looking blurry,
😳

I just sat through Jaws 3D, and honestly? It didn't hit the mark—not even close. And that’s saying something, considering how much hype there was back in the day, maybe ten years ago... If 3D actually worked, people would be using it more often than they do now.

If a movie is garbage (like this one), all the 3D in the world isn't going to save it.

Why exactly is it bad? What's your specific problem with it??!
☕

Look, 3D is clearly the future of movies and TV
☕
That opening scene where the guy is lying in the hospital bed and you see those bulging muscles, chest definition... uhh, yeah
😳
Hmm... or maybe 3D is just the future of adult films?
😁

Personally, I think the spike is pretty cool...😍 Those gears or whatever they were...🤔

The countdown was definitely better—back before the gears showed up..
Those gears are clearly just the logo for whatever studio produced this, probably the same ones behind the SAW movies.
🤔

Yeah, the countdown was the same too...
I'm not really sure about the gears part—but they were in 3D and I actually thought that was pretty cool...😁

Okay, was I the only one totally blindsided by that ending?? I honestly spent the whole time thinking it would play out just like the original movie!!

SPOILER

So Tom is actually the killer!!! 😱 I was lowkey convinced Axel was the killer the entire time since that's how it went in the original!! 😲 And that ending!! Yeah, that's how you do it, he's alive and kicking 😍 mmmmmm, damn, he is hot. I guess I wasn't even paying that much attention to the plot because I was too busy looking at him 😁 anyway, I don't really get why he was trying to kill Sarah... 😕 It caught me off guard, I really thought it was gonna be Axel Harry...😢 but whatever...

Both the new Valentine and the Friday the 13th remake feature mines as settings.

Is this just some weird coincidence, or are we looking at proof of a collective consciousness?

I really expected more from this movie 👎
Every Scene is pretty predictable, except for the ending 🙂

Look, it’s a decent enough movie. Sure, a few of the scenes are pretty predictable if you've seen your fair share of horror, but I actually had a good time watching it.

Check this out.
I’m scanning the papers and see an ad for "My Bloody Valentine 3D," and I figure, hey, at least it’s 3D, let's just go for it.
So I roll up to the theater with my wife, seeing lines out the door, which just confirms my theory that this thing is definitely 3D.
I walk up to the concession stand and ask the lady for some glasses, and she just gives me this patronizing little smirk before saying, "Next!" -_-'
We finally make it to the doors, and right then, the girl at the ticket booth rips our tickets apart... and all I can think is, "Well, am I actually going to get those glasses or what?"
I look at her, and she just deadpans, "You know it's not actually a 3D movie, right?"...
I was livid.
Anyway, Dosho, we sat down, started watching, and twenty minutes later, I was out of there...
That’s really all I’ve got to say about it.
As far as movies go, this one is so bad that you're better off staring at a blank yellow wall and laughing at the sheer absurdity of it all.

The movie was shot in 3D, so you should've been handed glasses—not before the film started, but when you actually got into the theater. 🤷

We finally get to the doors, and some girl rips our tickets... and all I can think is, "Great, am I even getting those glasses?"
I ask her what's going on, and she goes, "You know this isn't a 3D movie, right?"...
I was pissed.
Dosho sat down, started watching, and twenty minutes later I walked out...
That's pretty much all I've got to say about it.
As a movie, it's so bad that staring at a yellow wall would be more entertaining.


I bet they're showing two versions of the flick... the 3D one and this regular version... looks like you and your girl just stumbled into the wrong screening...🤷
