Sinopses(1)
Rachel Keller (Naomi Watts) and her son Aiden (David Dorfman) move from Seattle after their first terrible run-in with the tortured evil spirit Samara, relocating to Oregon. Attempting to make a fresh start, Rachel takes a job as a crime reporter at the local newspaper, instantly establishing a pluckily competitive friendship with colleague Max Rourke (Simon Baker). But when it turns out Samara (Kelly Stables) has followed their trail, taking out innocent teens along the way with her old videotape tricks, Rachel dives right back into the mystery. But Samara gets to her son Aiden first. And as a budding photographer in his own right, with a nifty digital camera that he takes everywhere, Aiden quickly finds his own way to harness the relentless ghost. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

Estava preparado para a deceção, mas não esperava nem sequer ter vontade de o avaliar. No início, ainda há algumas possibilidades promissoras para o desenrolar da história, mas com as sucessivas doses de cenas de clichés e sem sentido dentro e contexto, a confiança do espetador enfraquece e, no final, já não lhe interessa nada. Uma curva completamente oposta à do primeiro filme. O argumento é só uma tentação de continuar, tentando a todo o custo encontrar algo a que se agarrar no tema anterior. A personagem de Samara já não tem nenhum valor, o medo funciona a cerca de 30% (se no primeiro filme funcionava a 90%) e falha muitas vezes à custa da confiança do realizador na funcionalidade dos efeitos digitais, que até então não podia pagar e que infelizmente são completamente sem sentido. Os únicos pontos positivos: um «supernatural feeling» inicial que culmina numa fantástica cena com cervos, uma câmara decente, um excelente tema central de Hans Zimmer e a sempre bela Naomi Watts.

The same cassette, the same Rachel and Aidan, the same gloomy "neither night nor day" atmosphere, the same musical background. And Hideo Nakata didn't pull it off as well. The plot itself is already absurd, and from the trailer, it is more or less clear that the film had to fall apart at some point, which eventually happens with the unnecessary detour to Samara's mother. However, it is precisely the connection to the visual style of the first film that gives it the feeling of a cohesive story. Besides, when I remember the deer or the fateful well, it immediately gives me goosebumps and convinces me that The Ring Too is definitely not the disaster I predicted it to be. However, I wouldn't venture into further experiments because it could split a treacherous crack in the aura of the first film.

A typical sequel. The screenwriters apparently decided to give the first part a good beating, they wanted everything to be even more gripping, shocking and scary, but somehow it didn’t go beyond the effort. The Ring 2 doesn't have nearly the atmosphere of fear that Verbinski's film could boast, all the scares are forced and unsuccessful, the director serves one cliché after another, ultimately drowning the great performances and plot potential. The story digs its own grave from the beginning, sinking deeper and deeper into it, despite the great effort to scare the viewer and keep a true horror face. A big pompous sequel trying to capitalize on the success of the excellent first one, which, while watchable, is still best avoided.

Solidly shot wholes/half-parts clash with utterly incompetently shot details in this aesthetically very uneven work. But the camera impotence and the inability to captivate are nothing compared to the stupidity of the script, which has more logical errors than holes in Swiss cheese. And even the idea itself – if it can be called that at all – is rather laughable.

Technically brilliantly filmed, unatmospheric boredom. The main problem is that it completely lacks the atmosphere of part one. This is mainly due to the incredibly dumb screenplay that is all sixes and sevens, absolutely ignoring the rules laid down last time round. Here “fear" is invoked by randomly located, cheap, non-functional frights. The actors have nothing at all to act, so they are stylized into one common expression, and that unfortunately includes Naomi. It is painfully obvious in her performance that if she weren’t bound by contract, she wouldn’t have played in it, given the choice. Only two scenes of the entire two hours of running time are worthy of mention. One for its incredible dumbness (the scene at the university) and one coolly made scene with the bath and the water on the ceiling. I think that Nakata wanted to put an end to remakes of Asian pictures and so he sacrificed himself, putting his reputation on the line and filmed this pile of codswallop to end up on the shelves at the very back of the video rental stores: I see no other logical explanation...
