All in all I thought it was a solid movie. Was it as good as the original? Nope. Did it have the suspense of the original? Nope. I really didn't expect it to either. Like someone previously said, had they made it more of a slow burner like the origial today's audience would have called it boring and slow. Does that make it right? No, but sadly this is the time in which we live.
For me it's my second favorite movie of the series. While I have a soft spot for all of the sequels, I grew tired of Myers chasing family. I always hated that storyline, so I'm glad they got rid of it. I also liked the brutality that Myers showed. For me it made him disturbing again, which is something I think he lost over the course of the series.
It did have some problems though. I would have preferred Laurie persuing Myers along with the cop in the streets of Haddonfield a la Loomis and Brackett rather than his Dr driving him to Laurie's compound.
