Critics Consensus

Ring Two serves up horror cliches, and not even Hideo Nakata, the director of the movies from which this one is based, can save the movie from a dull screenplay full of absurdities.

The Screen

Aidan is one of the weirdest, least likable, and most irritating horror kids that ever graced the silver screen.

There’s very little fun to go around, and scarcely any suspense or terror.

While I found the original to be smart and a lot of fun, The Ring Two is just stupid and silly.

I was expecting not to like this one, but I did. It was actually pretty good. It's kind of similar to Ring 2, which makes sense as they have the same director, and I liked Ring 2 so that's a good thing. While it was a bit boring at times, it was a very different and unique but still grounded sequel to The Ring. It had some amazing scenes e.g. the stag scene and the scenes with Aidan were always good. Also, the opening scene effectively builds on Rings, the prologue to the movie (not to be confused with Rings 2017, it gets confusing), with it showing the aftermath and how Jake died. Overall, great film. Next up, Rings! Then we're done!

Luckily, it could keep the same feeling of the first film with the help of Noami and the great soundtrack, even with a boring plot(until act 3) and a dull script.
