Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
I did jump a few times, and I liked Haley's dour malevolence, but overall, the new Nightmare on Elm Street is a by-the-numbers bad dream.

Freddy's back -- and he's slicker and more sinister than ever.
-
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
It's the Bay touch you feel in the way actors register as body count, characters go undeveloped, and sensation trumps feeling. A nightmare, indeed.
-
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
The result of the new Nightmare is, at best, a kind of stand-off between predictability and competent execution.
-
Tom Long, Detroit News
A Nightmare on Elm Street may be the most unneeded movie of the year. And that's saying something.
