I saw it this weekend. It's pretty close to the original in plot, so if you have seen that movie, than there isn't much new here.
Having not seen the original Carrie in like 3 or 4 years, I am having trouble making comparisons, but I think the acting and definitely the effects are much superior in the new movie, so there is that. I did enjoy the movie and consider it money well spent.

I saw it and can only say "meh".
It didn't bring anything new to the table. The original was quite good and this one wasn't any better or really any different. I'm not against reboots or remakes. I adored Rob Zombie's take on Halloween for instance.
I really enjoy the work of Julianne Moore and Chloe Grace Moretz, they are both excellent actresses and both of them made some attempt to make the roles their own. But the story and the direction felt like a retread. And that was disappointing.
