Critics Consensus

Dull and derivative, the rebooted Grudge wastes a talented cast and filmmaker on watered-down scares that may leave viewers nursing grievances of their own.

Colby King

A true misfire in every sense of the word. Disjointed, not scary, unintentionally hilarious at moments, and an overall waste of time. The nail in the coffin for this already mediocre franchise.

...we're suffering from a dearth of true boogeymen, the figures that loom in our shared pop-cultural nightmares. It's the faces that stay with us.

Sandra Hall

Sydney Morning Herald

Pesce has hired some fine actors and squandered them on a plot that isn't ingenious enough to justify the heartlessness that's all part of the package at this end of the horror movie market.

Rated: 2/5

Clarisse Loughrey

Independent (UK)

The Grudge could have been something much more than just another notch in a never-ending franchise. As it is, the film is exactly as competent as it needs to be.

Rated: 3/5

Manuel São Bento

MSB Reviews

Its lack of surprising features, the extremely predictable jumpscares, and the complete disregard for the audience, treating the viewers like the dumbest people ever, make The Grudge one of the worst horror films of the last few years.

Rated: D

Perhaps the greatest horror here is seeing a director’s talent be so misused.

It ends up being an aggressively middle of the road movie and the kind we’ve come to expect in early January.
