Film: The Ring 2
I was wanting this movie to kick ass, I was just hoping it would be awesome like the first one, but it just wasn't.
I thought the 1st one was good, so it's hard to beat it, IMHO.
I am going to type some spoliers in white text, if you want to read them, highlight the area below.
Start here-----
I didn't like how they only showed the "new" film only once in it's entirity. It ran across the screen so fast, I missed most of it, so when certain scenes came up during the course of the movie I probably missed those too.
The scene with the deers charging the car was stupid, and I thought it added absolutely nothing to the story. The only thing it was good for was it alerted the mother that something strange was happening, but it was very excessive.
The little boy might win the award for worst child actor, ever. I understand the role he's trying to play; as a disturbed ghost ridden child, but I can't imagine a more lifeless and emotionless actor to play his part.
Overall, I'm somewhat glad the movie finally all came together, and made the audience clear just WHY Samara was so desperately after the mother and her child. However, I don't understand why Samara just didn't take up host with the woman in the mental hospital?
And to think, all this time, all they had to do was close that fuckin well - she never would have gotten back out.
End here----
Also, Naomi Watts is one sexy woman in this film.
