Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

strike-1995 Nothing like a good high concept to drive a horror film.

muons The movie must certainly be a feast for the eyes of horror film lovers with all its tension and suspense. However, it can't escape the cliches by touching all the twisted imagination buttons ever created throughout the movie history. As a person who has done with supernatural crap long time ago, I expected some intelligence after seeing Naomi Watts on the cast. Indeed, she was the reason for me to spare some time for this genre but the end result was total disappointment. The part involving the research about Anne Morgan looked promising for a while but towards the finale, nails coming off the walls by themselves, a zombie girl climbing out of a well and then coming out of a CRT screen to scare people to death... Those were all too much occults marring a flimsy story which was struggling to be coherent up that moment anyway. I also read that the director initially wanted to avoid big names from the cast with the idea of movie being discovered by itself (well, if you believe it...) Sorry for dashing your dreams pal, but this is just another run off the mill horror flick who'd never find this much success but for Watts. As for the movie itself, the storytelling is patchy and lacks cohesion. Some reviewers complain about the lack of character development but I guess this would be too much to expect from a horror movie, anyhow. I should finally give the director some credit that by using blood and gore sparingly, he acted wisely enough to jack up the creepiness level a notch high.

Jitendra Kotai It is well made. The movie is perfectly scary. But I have seen so many horror movies where the jump-scare of the real revelation of the ghost kills it. Naomi Watts has acted well. The depiction of the ghost is good. The child playing the role has done well. But somehow the back story reveal is not up to the mark. If the back story was made better and spookier I would have given it a 10. Disclaimer, I have not seen the Original so that I do not end up comparing the two.

sabou18 This film is a terrible "remake" of the Japanese miniseries, those were so much better.So much more suspension, so much more "jumpscare value". When I watched the American version I was seriously disappointed.Not every movie or series should be redone....
