A young woman (Amber Tamblyn) encounters a terrible curse while searching for her missing sister (Sarah Michelle Gellar) in Tokyo. The evil imprecation fills its victims with murderous rage, but it also brings together the diverse group to unlock its secret and save their lives.

Critics Consensus

A diminished sequel that makes even less sense than The Grudge 1.

1/5

Japanese director Shimizu may be the only director in history to have helmed a pair of Hollywood remakes of his two biggest hit films and managed to screw up both of them.

3/5

Low calorie horror, it's propped up by set-piece shocks familiar from any of the other five incarnations of Ju-On: The Grudge.

3.5/4

If you're in the mood for a good scary movie - one that mixes old fashioned frights with a novel storytelling approach - you need look no further than "The Grudge 2."

.5/4

Takashi Shimizu telegraphs scares to the point of numbness. Peek under a table? There's the boy! The room a bit too quiet, is it? It's the girl! All that's frightening are the actors' pained facial expressions, suggesting an epidemic of farty indigestion.

It's a random series of attempted frights that fails at every turn.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

A mess. A highly entertaining and occasionally spooky mess, but a mess nonetheless. Not bad but not great.

The first one is always better but I see the vision for this and I think it works in most ways tho I don’t agree with all of the characters actions in the movie but no movie is perfect
