Begining with a strong opening sequence The ring is an effective, too often copied, horror film. It is filled with effective moments and a fantastic climax that continues to work on multiple viewings. Like many films of its type, it loses momentum when it starts to explain things but still way better the the standard PG 13 horror fair that we are getting way too used to.
Also, whoever mad that video, did one hell of a job.It Did Absolutely Nothing For Me - Except Put Me To Sleep - revsdd
Based on all the positive things I had heard about this movie, I approached it with very high expectations, which ultimately led to a major
disappointment. The movie was spoiled from the start by a story that made no sense whatsoever (incoherent is a word that comes to mind to
try to describe the plot), was then further burdened by weak acting galore and then ruins the only hope for its redemption by not even
being bad enough to be funny - it ended up just plain bad (and not in the least bit scary.) Out of a mountain of problems, let me highlight
just one: where in the world did the video come from? The story (such as it is) revolves around the concept that anyone who watches this
video dies exactly seven days later. But the origin of the video is never satisfactorily explained. Yes, it has something to do with Samara (the deceased girl whose evil powers are still being used from her grave) - but how? And since the video is the centrepiece of the movie,
I found that a major stumbling block that I couldn't get over. The truth is, this movie put me to sleep for about 40 minutes in the middle. When I could make no sense of the ending after waking up, I assumed it was because of the 40 minutes I had missed; so I went back and watched those 40 minutes. Clearly I was a glutton for punishment. It still made no sense. It was a total waste of 2 hours.Ghoulish Movie so perfect - movie_goer
After watching this movie i became paranoid that a few days later i might get a phone call or visit from supernatural force. It delivers a cold, raw unseen appeal.
I'm still here (relieved), The Ring is utterly freaky, horrifying you name it Flat out scary! Now mocked in Comedy shows and Scary movies, stealing it's grisly glory. The Ring will alway have it's haunting feel.
