Review of The Grudge

The Grudge (2019)
4/10
Not even close to the originals
2 January 2020
So this movie is not Ju-On. Not even close to it.

The story places itself in it's universe, it uses it's known sound effect and the idea of the curse. That's all.

Otherwise, you are going to see terrible actors without character. There's is no character arc at all. The story is just a CHEAP (with big letters) ripoff...

It's all about weak jumpscares (you even know when to expect it as they turn the sound off to warn you) and plotholes ofc.

I would not make horror movies as it's not my style, but there was a scene in a wardrobe.. How an Earth did anyone on set thought that it was the right setup?

They missed everything that made Ju-On good and put their amateur thinking into this movie instead.

Not worth the money. (There were 2 people walking out of it.)

Btw, the cinematography, the editing, the acting, the directing (especially) was just awful.

I wouldn't recommend it to anyone even if you liked any of the Grudge movies.
