There are moments of greatness, like "No!", and that reveal when the horse rides out of the fog. And some great cinematography (those tracking shots). Unfortunately, not much else.
Also: Does James Franco always sound drunk, or just in this movie?

Edit: After seeing the 1968 original, I think I was too harsh on this. This preboot (prequel-reboot) includes a lot of parallels to the original which make it more interesting and powerful than I initially thought.
I'd definitely recommend starting with the original if you have the chance.
