I always try to keep my expectations low.
If things suck, there's less or no disappointment. Are things good/great then I'm pleasantly surprised.

Pretty much nailed my feelings on it with this statement.
It's a horror movie remake, nay, a horror movie remake that in absolutely NO WAY could capture the feeling of the original. As such, the only options it had to attempt to stand out were to update the visuals and add more gore. It managed to do this in a somewhat decent way, but all it really has going for it is an over-the-top R. Lee Ermey.
That being said, yes, cutting someone's leg off with a chainsaw in one swing while they're running full tilt is impossible and I did raise my eyebrows at that, lol. Would have been more effective if he'd just left a big nasty gash across his knee, then walked up and finished the job.
