not the best of asian horror
I am a big fan of asian horror, that being said this is just and average scare or two after watching and hour or ten minutes of build up. Nice ending to the film though. If you want asain horror choose the eye, the ring or the grudge.

Awful
This film is dire. Jennifer Connolly flops around like an old rag looking dejected with a face like a slapped a*se. Why the two boys in the laundry call her 'pretty lady' is beyond me, she looks like she needs to eat and sleep for about a week.
If you want to watch this film, WATCH THE ORIGINAL!! I'm not a 'Japanese is best' person, I do actually prefer the American Ring to the Japanese Ringu, but I'm afraid this remake is awful. It loses all the atmosphere and sadness, and turns a wonderful original film into something cliched and rubbish.
An insult to the original. Someone feed Jennifer Connolly and put her back in Labrynth. -
