anyone else going to see this?

I love Sarah Michelle Gellar, so I'm there even if it looks like a ripoff of The Ring

I saw the original Japanese version when I was in London. It scared the cr@p out of me

I have no idea who that Irish girl was that was sitting next to me, but we kept jumping into each other's laps - it was that scary.

I think I'm gonna see this. Maybe I'll understand the ending better.

I am going to see it eventually. I don't know if it will be in a theater or not.

It doesn't seem to be popular at Rotten Tomatoes.

I just sgined up for Rotton Tomates right now in fact I am going to my e mail and get my password and name. I am going to see the Grudge tomarrow.

Dean Winchester · 10-22-2004, 08:36 PM

it was OKAY. but nothing extraordinary

They really hyped it as Sarah's movie, when she only appears in about 50% of it.

Jason Behr is second billed and is only in it for 10 whole minutes

Sarah said in an interview that from a technical aspect, that the film was like Brian De Palma in his early days. This makes me very interested in seeing this film.

LucyCompanyPhan · 10-22-2004, 09:48 PM

I'll probably be seeing this tomorrow. I'm hoping its decent enough. It will be no ring though thats for sure.

AllIWantIsYourClutch · 10-23-2004, 08:07 PM

I really want to see it. And Rosa Blasi is in it, which is a plus cause I like her and she's only been in like one movie ever.

Hollow · 10-23-2004, 08:49 PM

looks interesting. i won't see it though, i'm too much of a *****.

TheGreatPretender · 10-23-2004, 09:10 PM

That little Asian boy is ****ed up.

Ebert and Roeper gave it 2 thumbs way down.

That surprises me. The Japanese version was really, really good. Apart from the fact that this is a totally unnecessary remake (which we ought to be used to by now) I wonder why they gave it that bad of a rating. Maybe it's just not as scary.

LucyCompanyPhan · 10-24-2004, 12:39 AM

a big thumbs down from me. It did have its cliched scary moments but the plot itself wasn't anything too original and the ending left too many unanswered questions. Its fun for halloween but its not entertaining like The Sixth Sense or The Ring.
