Even as you're wincing at what you thought was misguided earnestness, it's being subverted by filmmakers who've turned many of the genre's weaknesses into tiny triumphs. ...read the complete Rage: Carrie 2 movie review at Chicago Reader (Lisa Alspector)

Better than an opportunistic sequel has any right to be, but still pretty flawed. ...read the complete Rage: Carrie 2 movie review at The Onion (A.V. Club) (Keith Phipps)

The original "Carrie'' worked because it was a skillful teenage drama grafted onto a horror ending. Also, of course, because De Palma and his star, Sissy Spacek, made the story convincing. The Rage: Carrie 2 is more like a shadow. ...read the complete Rage: Carrie 2 movie review at Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

The surprise of the movie is that it actually does have a talented director and star. It doesn't begin to make up for the low quality of the story or the numerous other unfortunate elements, but it does suggest little flashes of something that, with more ...read the complete Rage: Carrie 2 movie review at Salon (Mary Elizabeth Williams)
