I didn't really like this movie at all. It has a few startles and a couple of creepy parts. Other than that it wasn't scary. Plus, there's a bunch of really dumb stuff. Some of it didn't work with the premise of the previous two movies, some was just out of place and not what this series is about.
To me this is a stand-alone movie with some of the same characters. Another example of a series that gains a following and then puts out cheap garbage because they know it will still make money. (2 viewings)

Really? She physically fights the ghosts? C'mon. Nothing in the original two would lead you to put that in the third. It was definitely dumbed down for the audience, like the first time she fights the ghost and has a flashback of when her friend told her she's stronger than them because she's alive. That happened like 20 minutes earlier, we don't need a flashback.
Late in the movie she asks dude if he can use the camera to record in the dark. He says yes, but never used the camera again.
At the end, the main character talks to her dead mom. Afterwards, she asks Elise, "She's not coming back is she?" I was a little confused by that question but assumed she meant that her mom's ghost was leaving and not coming back to be around her. But Elise's response proved otherwise: "Not to this world, no." Really? So the girl was asking if her mom who has been dead for over a year is coming back to life? Great writing (sarcasm).
One example of this movie not following the premise of the previous ones is that they are able to wake her up from the further by just shaking her. She did not have to go back to her body which played a big role in the previous movies.
Random funny thought: the way the main girl keeps getting injured reminded me of the little kid from Scary Movie 3.
