  It looks like utter crap. Video cassette quality. That was a real distraction when it began. The plot for a slasher was kind of interesting at first, though starting with the actual cave-in at the mine would have been nice. It also tried to have some character development with Kerr Smith playing a sheriff cheating on his wife. This made a rather ambiguous hero. This could have been good if it had gone somewhere, but you'll guess the killer pretty easily. It even tries to do a complete 180 with flashbacks, but the whole film made it obvious. It's like the writers couldn't be bothered to put any effort in so they just said "Let's actually make it the prime suspect". All the kills are similar, with a pickaxe used every time. I wouldn't even recommend this to real horror buffs.

  One of the best 3D scary films I have seen. When the axe comes flying at you... terrifying! Made me want to take off my glasses. A must see film definitely! Unexpected thrills and truly frightening and scary!

  My Bloody Valentine is a horrible remake of an overlooked and underrated 80's slasher. It was cool the first time it was done, but the second time around it is just stupid. Jensen Ackles may be one of the worst actors I've seen in awhile. Watch the original and let this piece of shit die.

  This film is nonsense, it's fun to watch, I guess, but you really have to turn off your brain. The gore effects are quite impressive, and I'm always up for seeing a director come up with new ways to mangle people in nasty ways. Maybe I missed most of the pleasure of watching this movie, since instead of in a theatre in RealD, I watched this on DVD in 2D. But really, I don't think it should really matter. I don't understand the killer in this movie. His motivation is hazy at best, he doesn't keep his victims straight and even his identity doesn't make any sense. He's not a cool enough character for me to let this movie get away with that type of foolishness. Dude, if you're wearing a mining helmet, you'd hardly have the keen eyesight needed to get the element of surprise. If you're hunting people in the tight confines of a mine, you'd have a hell of a time finding the swing room to deal a hard blow with a pickaxe. The scary look of the character presents significant logistical problems that created enough dissonance to take me out of the movie. At the end when his identity was the big reveal, I laughed. The end of this makes no sense. I wanted to see this because I'm in the throes of a Jensen Ackles kick and I liked Lussier's Dracula 2000. Was the original movie this stupid? Did High Tension rip it off, or did this remake rip off High Tension?

  The interest here for me of course was watching a Horror in 3D, this is a first for me. The film itself is very much a typical slasher movie with all the usual ticklist features, it was interesting to see it in 3D, but there was nothing impressive enough or scary enough to make good use of the 3D effect.

  Really, really stupid. Everyone died.

  My Bloody Valentine 3D is awesome Horror remake of the 1981 classic. It's one of the few remakes thats almost as good or better than the original. In this case, the original and remake are pretty much equal. My Bloody Valentine is no typical Tween-angst remake, it's very violent, and gory and there's a nudity thrown in for good measure. This film succeeds where many previous remakes fail, and thats to give the audience one awesome film experience. Valentine 3d is a terrific remake and it does a great job to create scares on screen. By the films conclusion, you are left in awe by the fact this is one great horror film, thats actually a remake, saying this film is great is not even a guilty pleasure. My Bloody Valentine 3D is one great film to watch.

  Was good for a new age horror movie, but what sucks is the only good way to see it, would be the 3-D version in the movie theatre!

  A pretty average slasher film and definitely based around the 3-D, it uses as many scenes as it can for this effect. I only saw it on DVD but you can just tell what scenes, effects were done for the 3-D parts. Very bloody and gory in places, with a slight twist if you can call it that. Overall pretty good but no doubt more fun in 3-D mode.

  Im a huge horror fan i love everything about horrors ! This movie really isnt a disappointment to be honest, i didnt watch it in 3D so i did miss out as i think it would've been awesome to see! This storyline unlike most horrors is exciting, tense and totally unpredictable leaving you guessing as to who it is right till the end! Two things wrong with this movie though is that for a gory horror i would have liked to have seen more gore although the gore that was in this movie was bloody fantastic, the film needed more, this film keeps you glued to the edge of the seat with an intense ride throughout the movie! This movie also lacked jumps but that aside this movie is awesome and totally worth a watch especially if your a horror fan!

  Ugh, this movie is a mess. And not a fun mess either. Clearly constructed around the 3D gimmick, which looks like total shit on DVD, My Bloody Valentine really doesn't have any other redeeming qualities. The glasses made me want to throw up after about half an hour. Basically, you had to catch it in the theaters or its worth will be completely lost on you. In my opinion, any film that becomes obsolete within two months of its initial release just shouldn't have been made at all. There are fun bits, but nothing pertaining to the totally uncreative kills or the sloppy jump scares. I'm talking about bits where the heroine hits the murderer with a piece of meat, or a bizarrely small woman owning a motel. Otherwise this is about as competently assembled as a Lifetime movie with acting to match. Jensen Ackles is stunningly, sensationally bad. He is able to project literally one expression: glassy-eyed nonchalance. Jaime King may have a future as a scream queen, but a lot of her dramatic material seems slow and underperformed, like she's not really paying attention. Kerr Smith is probably the least offensive of the three. Also any actor over the age of 40 chewed the scenery so much that it hurt. If it wasn't intentional, they should feel ashamed of themselves, but if it was then it wasn't funny. On that note, I can understand people defending this as a homage to B-movie slashers, which is all well and good, but the pieces just aren't there. It's low-energy, bereft of quirk or innovation, and plays out as derivative more than referential. It feels too glossy and commercial to be anything respectful like a homage. This was clearly just a shitty movie commissioned by some savvy businessman who knew that a 3D horror flick with flying viscera would turn a bit of coin. Totally skippable.

  Atrocious, mean spirited slasher film exists simply to showcase one grisly death after another. Weak plot concerns a psychopathic miner who apparently returns to wreck havoc on the citizens of the town of Harmony exactly 10 years after his original killing spree. Gratuitous violence and gore does not equal scary. In fact, the most horrifying thing about the film is the acting. Without the 3D effects, there is NOTHING to recommend about this film.

  As a modern update of an underappreciated 80's cult classic, this film is surprisingly really good. It's not a strong 4/5, but it's still a very solid and entertaining film. I didn't unfortunately see it in 3-d, so some of the great bits lost their camp/cheesiness/entertainment factor, but the 2-d version still delivers the goods. I was really impressed with the high level of gore in this movie. Some of it was really creative and inventive too, which is always a plus when making a slasher film since it's hard to show people things they haven't seen before. As a regular film, this doesn't have as high of a rating, as a trashy b-movie though, it rocks. The acting is just ok, and the writing is a little rough, but where the violence and atmosphere are concerned, this movie is top notch. Being a fan of the original, I liked how this one made several homages to the original, but I think it could have gotten maybe just a little less faithful to the original, and it still would have been a pretty strong film. As a sidenote, Kerr Smith looks a little like Blood Diamond/The Departed era Dicaprio, and I think that's pretty cool. Ifyou wanna a fun, goofy, entertaining (and gory as hell) movie to watch, check this one out.

  A movie like My Bloody Valentine can only work on someone who knows exactly how everything is going to turn out, but sits back and enjoys it anyway. There's not much else to like about this latest entry to the American horror genre. It feels like a routine, like a product that will give you what you pay for, providing you are paying for the bearest minimum of entertainment. Sometimes the movie does end up in 80s B-horror territory, which is exactly where it wants to be. For instance, a sheriff looks at a corpse and says "Happy fucking Valentine's Day." Or better still, a woman runs out of her motel room stark naked to stop the man who just videotaped her having sex with him. I admire the film's intentions. It is unpretentious, and knows exactly what it is. It wants you to sit back and have fun. The problem for me is that I've seen this kind of film before. It doesn't want to take risks because it assumes you know the formula and are okay with it. But for me, it's just not fun anymore to sit through the same hack and slash, predictable gory horror that I've seen time and time again.
