.... So I don`t know if this is a factor of not being able to make head nor tail of this sequel . To my mind it plays out entirely different from what I was expecting , where the original movie ended led me to believe this sequel would involve the most dangerous pyramid scheme in human history - and unless you`ve seen RINGU that last sentence will make no sense - but here we have something that threatens to come close to the Brian DePalma films CARRIE and THE FURY and I bet that Gore Verbinski and Ehren Kruger will milk that aspect for all it`s worth in the Hollywood remake.
It`s good in places with a scene involving aura photography being very chilling especially with creepy music being played over the soundtrack and the ending does answer the question I had about the ending of the Hollywood version of THE RING , but this is still an inferior reworking of the original that left me confused with scenes like the bit in the swimming pool , just what was all that about ?
Some people on this page are pleading not to see a RINGU 3 produced . I couldn`t agree more . I give RINGU 2 a mere 4 out of 10
