This is an average film for me and was much worse than the original one. This film has many scares but none of them shows Sadako coming out of the TV set which was what I was expecting. This film was much less scary than the first one. The storyline of this film is a decent one which shows how the main characters try to stop the curse. The first half of the film was very interesting and quite scary especially one scene in the hospital. The opening scene of this movie was good. This movie around the halfway mark showed the boy having physic powers which was still interesting. However the second half of this movie is just confusing and quite ridiculous. There was not much emotion among the characters. I could hardly understand what was happening. The thing that was really annoying was that Sadako was so scary in the first film. In the second film they just made Sadako into a plasticine toy. The way they solved the problem was far too easy. How could the main characters just transmit their fear like that? Why did they suddenly end up in the well? I found it hard to understand. At least there was still a decent plot up to here. The ending of the film was probably the worst part in the entire film. The film focuses so much on the main characters but end up showing a girl which seldomly pops up smiling in the end. People said it was like the shutter ending, but I thought the ending for shutter was far better than this. This ending is way more silly than the Shutter's. Another thing I hated about the ending is the emotion of that girl who laughed. She has such a strong grudge against that man so why did she laugh so loudly. I could not understand that part at all. The first 2/3 of the film was quite good but the last 1/3 of the film was really bad. This film is an average film for me and is is still recommended if you like the original version of this film.
