Rosemarys Baby Digital

Good movie.

Love this movie the price was good.

This version makes good use of Zoe Saldana, Carole Bouquet and Jason Isaacs. Not especially well done or interesting otherwise.

Zoe carries this remake quite well, the rest of the cast are all properly off/creepy. One off for.just average intensity/atmosphere. Enjoy!

The major problem with the story is that we know it. If you dont know the story of Rosemary Baby stop reading reviews right now and go watch it and I would suggest the newer version to newer audience. Pardon my sacrilege. Having said that, placing the story in France doesnt really add anything to the tale. With the surprise element gone and not having to figure out the mystery, the film needs an A game to distinguish itself. Unfortunately this film doesnt get interesting until after the pregnancy. Like most made for TV offerings, the acting was uneven. Zoe Saldana was acceptable. Patrick J. Adams was bland.

Modernized version of the old movie. It works focusing on young Rosemary Woodhouses suspicions that her neighbors may belong to a Satanic cult who are hell bent on getting one thing: the baby she is carrying.Still like the original better

Dont waste your time and money on this remake. Its no comparison to the original Polanski film with Mia Farrow, John Cassavetes and Ruth Gordon. This one was Made for TV and that shows throughout. Production values reveal the budget and shooting schedule constraints in everything from set, props, lighting and costuming to visual and audio special effects. Polanskis film has tight pacing and is compact without sacrificing the story. The result is well-paced and builds suspense to the denouement in the final scene. By comparison, this remake reduces the suspense to near zero, replacing it with unnecessary action and gratuitous violence, the lack of which added to the psychological power and horror achieved in the original. The producers, screenwriters and director completely missed the boat. Rosemarys Baby is a psychological horror story, NOT an action or physical one. Pacing is ruined by the two factors that destroy it in very nearly every Made for TV movie: length thats bloated to fit the time slot(s), and attempts to time plot cliffhangers for every commercial break. Among the worst of all is timing of the overall story for the split between the two parts. As a result, pacing is inconsistent with a story muddled by extraneous fluff. The lack of psychological suspense combined with a pacing that runs in fits and starts for commercial breaks and the two-part split in a story bogged down by unnecessary bloat eventually meanders its way to an anti-climactic final scene. Its an ending that was completely predictable well beforehand and has none of the psychological shock value the 1968 original contains in its denouement. The purpose of this Made for TV remake was ratings sweeps. They network only needed to con the TV viewing audience into watching it one time to achieve that, and it had all manner of hype beforehand. The first part had ratings that OK but nothing to brag about, as they didnt have the desired boost. It showed in the second part several days later with very mediocre ratings as substantial fewer viewers didnt bother to watch it. I recorded it on one of my TiVos and watched it later when I could skip through the commercials. At the end I extremely disappointed, felt it was time utterly wasted, and promptly erased it (versus downloading it to disc for future viewing). That its out on DVD and Blu-ray now is beyond me, but I suppose there are those that can be hoodwinked into buying it on disc if they werent conned into watching it when it was originally broadcast.

So says the female protagonist. Terrible letdown vs. the 1968 original. Reinforces the cliche that remakes are not a good idea. Nice Paris locales cannot save movie from trite plot and screenplay not well adapted to the novel. The scariest scene is of the apartment handyman scrabbling down a hallway on all fours like a dog.

I love this movie!!!

I thought this was an absolutely amazing movie!! I cant even say if this or the origional is better because neither are theyre both soo good!! They kept to the same story line and kept all the character names just added and played around with a few things but I think it made it awesome!! Great movie!!
