But if YOU liked it, I'd love to hear why.

Everyone else in the supporting cast have no depth including Nancy are throw away just like the subsequent sequels of Final Destination.
There is more substance in the original than the remake, watch the original if you want a good movie.

I also differ from Jwrestle because I liked the two main leads, especially the boy. He played the "guy who hasn't slept in a while" character well. Some of the scares were decent and a few of the Freddy lines were decent.
I'm not recommending the movie mind you, but I seem to dislike it much less than you two.
