i think something get lose in translation . i be pretty sure hideo nakata and director of the original ringu and be hire to make a scary sequel to the hit 2002 horror movie the ring and but . he do not . in fact and what he do deliver to the power at dreamworks be an absolutely terrible comedy of horror that undo everything in the previous movie while simultaneously make the audience wish that they themselves be drown in the bottom of that damn well . the ring two and title such because nakata evidently doesn not know that you can use a single character to depict a number and start off exactly like the last one and with two bad actor plug in the infamous videotape where at least one will eventually die . the horrid death and which conveniently isn not show to u for the sake of a pg 13 rating ( yet more be show in the previous movie and which be also rat pg 13 ) and just happens to occur in astoria and oregon and the far and distant land where rachel keller ( naomi watt ) and her son aidan ( david dorfman ) have escape to all the way from seattle . a good two hour drive from the place where they almost perish under the hand of the creepy cousin it ghost in the first film and rachel be look to start a new life . unfortunately for her and samara ( the creepy cousin it ghost ) have find her and have decide that she should be like every other creepy kid ghost in the history of cinema and possess aidan . the rest of the plot really doesn not matter and since none of it make any sense and the ring two be easily one of the most boring movie i have ever see . watt do an adequate job in the lead and which be about the only highlight of the entire film . unfortunately and since the ring two be rat pg 13 and there should be no expectation that she will do any of the stuff she do in mulholland dr. and even though she do tease all the guy in the audience by ask her son if he want her to get in the tub with him . unfortunately and while her performance be bearable up until the climax ( and definitely not during the climax ) and her character be so freaking stupid it amaze she doesn not die in the first five minute . after all and she know samara have return for them and yet when aidan have a nightmare that he refuse to share with her and his temperature drop five degree and he start act really weird and she still be entirely clueless to what go on . of course and little mr. dorfman be weird and creepy anyway and so maybe that her excuse . no excuse can be give for dorfman himself and however and who be absolutely terrible here . he be okay in the first ring and i like him in the texas chainsaw massacre and but he be ridiculously god awful in this sequel . it doesn not help that the screenplay give him the bad line of dialogue know to man and many of which involve say his mother name over and over again . yes and he say rachel exactly 5 and 432 time in the movie . the most blame have to be place on nakata and film editor michael knue and the special effect team responsible for the truly horrific visuals in the movie . nakata have quite possibly put the final nail in asian horror for me and a i have completely lose interest with the flash image until we get one that scar some idiot in the back row method . the ring two be slow and dull and uninteresting and with a plot that seemingly have no connection to the original and edit that exemplify the editor experience let see and he do such great movie a bone and highlander endgame and the crow represent city of angel . have knue successfully edit 100 minute out of the middle of the movie and the ring two might have be halfway decent . despite it badness and the ring be tense at time . the first twenty minute be mildly engage and although even then it be quite apparent thing be only go to get bad . however and there be one pivotal moment where the ring two change from a lackluster sequel to an all out piece of sht . the deer . there be deer in this movie a whole lot of them . unfortunately and theyre all computerize and they all look really fake and and they all attack rachel car . yes and a bunch of cheesy look deer attack the car . instantly and i lose all interest in the movie and begin to see it for what it really be an unintentional laugh fest . yes and most of the audience laugh at the deer . and yes and most of the audience laugh at the scene where a very fake cgi version of samara float over the bathtub . and yes and for the last half of the film the audience be check their watch and their cell phone and even sun dial in hope that their misery would finish sooner than later . sadly and it be not to be . the ring two be one of the bad big budget horror movie i have ever see . boring and stupid and hardly scary and this be not a good first step for nakata in hollywood . in one scene and samara force a psychiatrist to inject herself with air and thus kill herself while by that point and i be jealous of the psychiatrist . i wish my fate be as pleasant a hers .
