Let the Right One In

Never rated anything this high right out the gate after only 2 episodes.. I feel this is one of the best done series i've seen in a while. I'm talking filming, editing, etc. We'll see how well eveything else goes as it progresses. I watched the original Swedish film many years ago and while I've never read the book ( so that doesn't cloud my judgement) I loved the 2008 film and so far I'm really liking this. I love Demian Bishir he is excellent in this the only thing is the relationship with Elenor and Isah makes the entire story and I feel the actor playing the boy doesn't doesn't have the skill for the part. Also on a side note why does the mother constantly berate her son in one scene tells him to take off the blazer/jacket it will make him a target?!? I understand the kid's bullied but her and her detective make derogatory comments about him? She seems to make him feel worse about himself? Any ways I'm going to have to rewatch last night episode because I started it a 4am and fell asleep half way thru. So far I am really liking this! I hope all 10 episodes live up to the first 2!

What idiot cancelled this show? It is clearly a good show regardless of whether it lives up to the movie it was based on. The acting is good and the characters pull you right into the narrative.

I binged watched this show, finishing the entire first season in a couple of days. I enjoyed the build up. I just don't understand how the executives that cancelled this show couldn't see the value in it. How could a show liek Webdreams last three years and they cancel this show in its first season? Who hires these executives that makes clearly bad decisions?

Please stop promoting reality shows while you cancel clearly good dramas.

After 'The Passage', a too brilliant series, another super bright and full of potential show bites the dust due to the incommensurable dinosaur-brain quality of the related Network's executives who just lick at the Viewers-Cash_Performance chart.

'Let the Right One In' is so superb, so enthralling, so well-acted that most viewers are aghast and in shock at the cancellation.

I enjoyed it tremendously, loved the screenplay and plots, the cute, emotional and tender friendship between the two teenagers, the atmosphere and pace of the show and above all, the more than marvelous acting of Madison Taylor Baez who at such tender age, is already a force to reckon with. Loved her serious, powerful and very charismatic play.

One of the better ending to date, opening new horizons, just wasted.

I'm upset to learn that this show has been cancelled. I looked forward to watching it each week and was looking forward to a second season. Now, I'll have to add it to the list of GOOD shows that are canceled without being given a real chance. Shows like Downward Dog, Harlots, Imposters, I Am Not Okay With This, and Good Girls, while much less quality tv gets season after season.

This show had a slow build, but it draws you in. Each character had dimension. Even the peripheral characters, like Isaiah's dad or Naomi's partner or Peter's caregiver, make you care about what happens to them. And for the most part, it's well acted. Eleanor needs a bit more practice, but the Isaiah kid is going places!

Some people complain about how the characters changed from the original source material. Well, it's a reboot, not a remake. I, for one, am happy that they didn't try to remake something so great. Instead, they added a different dimension to the story - one of a parent's love and sacrifice. I found this dimension intriguing.

This story has some scarier parts, but overall, it's not scary. It's the character development that gets you, and the grittiness of the real world and the decisions one has to face and make to survive in it.

The cliffhanger! For that reason alone, we deserve a second season. 😝 But truly, it's a good show, with great characters and good actors.

I've seen both the original movie and the US adaptation. And always felt like it deserved a part two. This tv-series puts a nice twist on the original story by expanding the setting, introducing new characters and more. I really like what they did with it, honestly. I enjoy the fact that they are trying to give more details about the vampire virus while also focusing on what it's like for those suffering from it and their daily struggle to keep up appearances. I am glad that they changed some things and not just remake the movie into a tv-series. The casting is pretty good and after finishing the second episode, I am really hooked. I am curious to see where they will take the show. The reason why it's not so popular is because it's not on a major streaming service like "Netflix". But give it a try and you'll be surprised.
