    Was Let Me In really underrated? I remember it getting a lot of attention, especially in contrast to Let the Right One In

      It’s a tricky one with such objective criteria - perhaps you could argue it’s underrated because it got so damningly compared to the original and isn’t so bad when looked back on. Personally, I think it is probably rated just right.
