I dunno why people are complaining its bad.....The original series weren't ever considered good either.

Yet after 20 something years, Freddy is still popular enough to bring back to the theatres.

This movie was never supposed to be good in the first place...not a lot of horrors make it on a 'good' list to start with. For a cheesy slasher film to be considered good is just a bonus.

But definitely....Jackie Earle Haley wasn't a bad Freddy, but he was no Robert Englund. Haley made freddy look very depressing compared to the wicked nightmarish character that Englund brought out of Freddy.

But in comparison....this movie was a lot better than Michael Bay's rendition of Friday the 13th.
