Carrie (2013): B- *

The 1976 Brian DePalma version may be dated and the technology might not be as advanced, but the mind accepts its limitations and fills in the gaps. The new film was basically a remake of this film, which was based on the book. A good thing about the remake is that it might bring in a new audience. For those of us old enough to have seen the original there is little that is different here, which makes me wonder why they bothered remaking it. Unfortunately what was considered ground-breaking in 1976 is not ground-breaking today. If you have not seen the original, then it is worth seeing in the theater. If you have, then you might want to consider waiting till video.
