Anytime the critics give something nothing but praise, I am immediately suspicious. They've lost ALL credibility. I wasn't surprised audiences gave this only a B-.
Thanks for watching! But just so we are clear I ended up liking this movie, I just had a very different reaction to the Skarsgard performance than others. If you love that performance then the movie probably works much better then it did for me
I saw it yesterday. There was only a smattering of applause after the ending. This movie was overrated to the hilt. Orlok looked like Tom Selleck or Rick Rude and he was not scary enough physically. Dialogue was over the top. I liked the actor who played the head doctor of the sanitarium and Lily Depp's performance was pretty good. Tired of seeing Dafoe do his crazy act. Paganism runs through this film like butter.

Agree with aspects of what you said but I did think Dafoe was great in the movie!
