One of the best and scariest horror movies. Highly recommendable!

A largely faithful remake, this American version of the Japanese classic, creates a great atmosphere throughout, has an excellent cast and is unsettling and creepy when it needs to be. Whilst it does expand slightly on the backstory to the central premise more than the original Ringu (and it could also be argued perhaps a little too much), the question that has to be asked is why bother in the first place as there is little to set this version apart. It's not a bad film at all, but the similarities to the original leave experienced horror aficianados comparing their quality in the one aspect that matters - how scary and creepy they are. In this area, the original still has the edge.

Rated this 4 because it is a rip off of the Japanese version which is much better in my opinion.

Revisiting a classic horror on #Netflix. It was one of the scariest movie back in the day. The one that started it all.

That being said, I really enjoyed this film. This was my first experience with The Ring and I have to say it is More

[7.3/10] *The Ring* is a well-built movie that doesn’t really move me. It has a strong central premise, some quality scares, a propulsive story, and a solid twist. But the characters do next to nothing for me. So the end result is that for a movie so well-constructed, I admire it more than I actua More

I really appreciate "The Ring" for its well-written story and shocking, but largely gore-free imagery. The film's blue-gray gloom and rain-soaked settings, along with the accompanying music, setup the story and scares beautifully. Naomi Watts is very good, her character uses her investigative skil More
