English Pretty crappy. The beginning in the plane and the falling house still gives some kind of hope, but then we move to the treatment center and Springwood "in twenty years", we see one unsympathetic character next to another and we stare in disbelief at the "plot", which seems to have come from some bad parody. The sloppy finale gives it all a poor crown, and Freddy (who, however, can still be great, for example, when he grotesquely goes for a deaf victim) certainly didn't deserve that. ()

English The somewhat cumbersome fifth instalment called for some fresh air and a change of concept, so the creators came up with the ultimate finale, which is kind of a silly comedy. The horror scenes are on the border of slapstick (or maybe beyond), but that didn’t bother me at all. Freddy’s Dead enriched the franchise with a generous dose of humour, and this should be all fine. BUT – and this one is huge – the creators didn’t set a clear tone for the whole movie, resulting in quite a hybrid experience, ranging from one extreme (slapstick comedy) to another (serious flashbacks). Add to the injury the worse acting performances of the entire series, some weird cameo roles (Tom Arnold and Roseanne Barr – WTF), a story that isn’t correctly structured and very outdated scenes adapted to the 3D format, and you get a very inconsistent film which, in a way, is fun, but at the same time doesn’t fit its position of the grand finale for a legendary horror saga. Fortunately, a few years later, Wes Craven came back with his New Nightmare, which handles that position with a lot more dignity. ()
