Movie: The Ring (U.S. Version)



Wasn't too keen to watch movie yesterday as I was quite tired after going to the NSW Art Gallery, but my friend instead watching a movie, nothing really interesting showing now as all the block busters will only be out after next week. The cinema was showing , I was quite curious to see how this U.S. version looks like.

The story is about 80% similar to that of the original Japanese movie, there's changes in some part of the story line, esp. after the reporter arriving on the island. But generally, I already know which part will be scary, so, I usually sleep thro' the boring parts. My attention was draw to the audiences, the Ang Mo who hasn't seen the movie at all. Some really screamed during the sudden scary parts. Quite funny to see their expressions, hee hee

The production is much better this time, but sstory wise, doesn't really make sense in many ways and it got more confusing in the later part. Also at the beginning of the movie when the 2 gals talking about the video tap looks quite weird.

One of the big different from the original movie is that the little girl (who made the cursed tape) look so cute, just like a doll, like one of those evil dolls in the usual horror story.
