I own both the 1951 and 1982 versions on DVD.
I thought the 2011 version was OK - neither particularly good nor particularly bad. I did admire their dedication to recreating the settings from Carpenter's film. I also thought the inability of The Thing to recreate non-organic matter, e.g. dental fillings, was a clever addition but still consistent with what we already knew.
