“Most disappointing aspect about this sequel is that it falls incredible flat as an horror.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s a sequel to an already troubled first movie, that showed lots of premise with its main concept but was one that was not without its flaws and also fell kind of short as an horror movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI just canu0026#39;t see how horror lovers, or fans of the Japanese horror genre in particular, can get any satisfaction out of this movie. Seriously, most of the time there isnu0026#39;t a whole lot happening and its horror moment mostly consists out of people looking scared whenever they receive a phone call. And the other moment, the feature some more classic Japanese kind of horror elements, you most of the time have no idea what is going on.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAgain, just like was the case with the first movie is that this movie becomes incredible confusing in its second half. I canu0026#39;t really say if this was because it was all hard to understand or simply because I had lost interest in this movie, halfway through. Whatever was the case, it ruined quite a lot for me. Before its second half I was still pretty much giving this movie the benefit of the doubt and was still willing to give this movie a better rating then Iu0026#39;m giving it now.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhat also really doesnu0026#39;t help this movie is that it has some incredible poor acting in it. It especially ruins a lot of the supposedly scary and tense moments.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOtherwise, itu0026#39;s one fine looking movie, with a typical Japanese horror look and style all over it. Nothing about this movie is basically bad looking, so all the blame could be put on the movie its script and acting.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDisappointing sequel to an already average movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e4/10u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ehttp://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/”
