Don't waste ur money go to Mcdonalds instead not a joke

Don’t waste your time not scary at all and very predictable

Disappointed

This is not even The Grudge. Save your money.

Worst movie

Story is all over the place

Waste of time and money..I’ve never seen something so stupid.

Very Slow...wait for the DVD!

this version should never have been made. extremely boring and not scary at all.

...

Horrible horrible waste of time and money

Surprisingly good

Better than the original but still very boring.

movie sucks, boring and it's not even scary.

The plot was boring and confusing. When it finally came to a close it just didn’t leave me feeling satisfied. Yes, I jumped a couple times but that’s the extent of entertainment value I got from the movie. I had high hopes since I loved the previous Grudge movies but left the theater feeling dissatisfied.

Need to learn to wait for Dvd release for this remakes of good scary Asian movies. no justice was done.

Worst movie I’ve ever seen... even thankskilling was a masterpiece compared to that and I hated HASHTAG HATED!! that movie

Who every wrote this never watched or researched the grudge.

Had potential to be better. But ending felt sudden and too many cuts and a few plot holes

Wow, what a joke. I’d rather watch my grandma balance on one leg than see this pile of trash again.

Good movie has a continuation!

Worst movie I’ve seen in a long time.

With so much to work with and so many talented members of the cast this movie sadly disappoints. There are choices that could have been made that were not made. I wish the movie was better but it’s not and there’s no saving it.

Way below average. Don't waste your money and time even if someone pays to you to watch

This movies sucked balls and I’m Upset that i can’t get back those 2hrs of my life 😩

Nothing can compare to Takashi Shimizu's Ju-on or his remake, 2004's The Grudge, but if we have thave a reboot, this should be it. True to the original's rules but a different story with new characters, I enjoyed it. It was slow paced but creepy. Worth watching.

it was ok..

RUINED THE ORIGINAL

Just ok)

Good if you wanna catch a quick flick. I didn’t have high expectations going in so I wasn’t disappointed.

Stupid

No Good

So pissed I wasted my time!

scary but ending was awful. ruined the movie.

I fell asleep, that's how bad it was.

Better off staying at home

🤭😱SCARY AS HELL, BLOODY, GRAPHIC, ONE ☝🏾 OF THE BEST REMAKES I’VE SEEN!🙌🏾🙌🏾 ONLY DOWNSIDE WAS IT WAS MAD BLURRY🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤬🤣 I DON’T KNOW IF THAT WAS HOW THE MOVIE 🎥 WAS SHOT OR WHAT👀🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤣

Different!!

Complete Trash

Skip it. It’s just not good.

Should rename The Snooze, or better yet “A Meth Heads Delusion”

this was a decent horror movie for any other idea than it being a grudge movie. It had nothing to do with the original or the American remake. they had it right for the first 5 mins with the scene in Japan but then that's it. nothing else was the grudge. it was just ghost haunted house murder mystery. change the name of the movie and then I'll watch it maybe one more time but nope just don't watch the movie expecting the grudge.

I still remember it. That’s how scary it is.

Horrible

Didn't even feel like the grudge. Was a waste of money.

The jump scares were alright, some are pretty predictable. It could have gone better if there was an actual storyline though, it seemed like they just took chunks from the original movie, pieced some things together and left you hanging with redundant flashbacks. I’d rather watch this at home and not in theaters.

Love the concept of remaking a good Japanese horror movie but this whole movie was completely horrible was not scary was to fast of a movie jumping everywhere on the timeline and didn’t really explain the whole concept of the grudge (the girl) and the ending completely sucked everyone in the audience stood in the chairs wondering if that was it cause it was horrible hated it.

Terrible movie. So slow DO NOT WASTE UR MONEY

Three films into his career, Pesce is batting below average: Last year, he dropped his inventive sophomore stunner, Piercing, and demonstrated range and precision not as evident in his hollow, unrepentantly nasty debut The Eyes of My Mother. With The Grudge, the worst proclivities of that movie override the sensibilities of Piercing and combine with studio horror’s “just play the hits” ethos, resulting in one of the year’s most unpleasant releases to date.

Nothing here is left to the imagination, Pesce running down the list of clichés and ensuring he includes every single one. Once the realization that this is yet another cheap-o retread settles in (about 10 minutes in), the rest becomes agonizingly painful to sit through.

Film Threat

Nearly devoid of scares for the casual horror consumer, it will likely elicit a respectful dismissal from genre connoisseurs: We get what you're trying to do, they might gently say to the filmmakers. It didn't work.
