disgusting, overrated, pointless

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I liked the idea of teaming up against him and bringing Nancy ( Or someone from the previous movies) to help them with her experience, also the fact that they put up the light on the background of Freddy, everything in this movie was good. the only thing that made me laugh to tears the (Skeleton's part) , they Exaggerate it . i mean even the idea killed my thoughts , regardless that everything was good , specially the song in the last.

While most people consider the original to be the best, I'd have to say that this is my favorite entry in the series. I think it's mostly because it takes places at a hospital and it features all the characters interacting with each other in such a realistic manner. The pacing of this film is great. It starts off with the first two deaths, both of which are quite creative before moving onto the big conflict. I love the idea that these characters all have their unique personalities and their own ways of dealing with dreams. Sadly, most of them still can't do much against Freddy.The special effects are quite nice too. It's kind of weird to see a girl whose main power is cartwheels be the one who seems to be the strongest. Freddy is defeated not by the actual dream warriors, but instead by the man who destroys his skeleton. It probably would have been cooler to see him get taken out by them, but it still makes for a good movie. I think this is the point where Freddy starts making puns. It's too early for this to become a huge personality trait so he doesn't come off as annoying. ***

As this instalment opens teenager Kristen Parker is making a papier-mâché model of a house; the house that featured in the first two films. When she sleeps she finds herself in the house where she is chased by Freddy Krueger. She flees to her own bathroom where Krueger attacks her. Her mother finds her with bleeding wrists and a razor blade in her hand. Her mother has her committed to the Westin Hospital. Here it becomes apparent that she isn't the only teenager who is there who has been plagued by nightmares. The staff believe that the nightmares are a way of projecting their own guilt; the fact that the dreams are so similar don't seem to concern them. A new member of staff does believe them though; Nancy Thompson the girl who faced Krueger in the first film has grown up and become an intern therapist at the hospital. She learns that Kristen has the power to pull people into her dreams a power that she will attempt to use to help the teens battle Freddy. Meanwhile Nancy persuades Dr Neil Gordon to try some experimental treatment. He also has a run in with a nun who tells him the story of Freddy's origin and states that if he is to be ultimately defeated his remains must be buried in hallowed ground.This is a pretty good sequel, which is closer to the original than the previous sequel; once again Freddy's attacks take place in the world of dreams and Nancy is the protagonist once more. These dream sequences feature some highly inventive and well executed special effects; they also provide some decent scares. The story is interesting and the setting adds to the feeling of oppression. The cast does a solid job and includes some well-known actors including Patricia Arquette as Kristen and Laurence Fishburne in a relatively minor role. Even though it was only a small part of the overall story I liked the fact that we learnt more about Freddy Krueger's origins. There are a few surprises, most notably at the conclusion. Overall this was a good addition to the franchise; if you thought about dropping the series after Part Two but enjoyed the first film I recommend giving this a go as it is much closer to the original.

A.N.O.E.S. III Dream Warriors is a truer sequel to the original in my opinion. Some of the original cast returns as well. Of course it does not live up to the original Night on Elm St. but is a better effort considering how disappointing the second installment was. The second film felt rushed and pointless, obviously trying to bank off the success of the original as it was released just the following year. This film came out two years after the second installment so perhaps that extra year in between releases paid off, as this had an overall better flow and pacing with an interesting enough concept. But this film sort of started the trend within the franchise of overblown effects and over the top death scenes, to the point where it comes off comical more often than not. And the last act is anti-climactic and silly as in the previous film. This is also when Freddy first starts to show subtle signs of becoming a parody of himself as was the case as the franchise progressed.Overall better than the second but still very average compared to first.Pros:much darker atmosphere than the previous film with actual elements of horrorFreddy again looks pretty creepy in this like the previous film (one of the only high points of part 2)a young Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) appears in thisties into the original much better than part 2 maybe because Freddy stays within his realm, a truer sequel Cons:too many effects can lead to silly looking situations at timesstandard 80's horror flick sub par to poor acting from mostfinal act leaves a lot to be desiredSoundtrack: 8/10
