I prefer "Ringu" to US "The Ring" which was overly done with the effects just for the US audience. "Ringu" is much more calmer with psychological themes that test out our "fears". I would say this film is scary but more of a mystery with a supernatural twist to it. I think the best and shocking moment was when the girl climbed out of the TV. The sequence was so well-done; it didn't seem like any cuts were made. Really nice film.

The original was read first and better た of the comment at that time was "mystery which was able to improve" って touch.
CM of a movie -- seeing -- っ "included in the genre of this horror" -- considering -- a friend and a movie theater ...
It became that it is likely to fly up first by the face when Tomo dies for start 15 minutes.
yabai [ this ] mind carries out...
It is although っ and mind were tightened..
The scene which has a hand held by childhood Sadako, the scene on which the face is distorted were frightened of fear that the punch line must have been found in the original.
comment [ when coming out of a movie theater ] "-- it ぁ [ disagreeable-] and was fearful - it is uncanny to have appeared in honto by no means at horror But the last is ねぇ...
That Sadako who had not substantiated comes out at the end as comment when seeing in a movie theater at the time of" was the like and regrettable feeling which will not carry out cha く見えて very of making a "sweet home" etc.
remembering....
っ!
If you go home, it thinks that it will sleep by one person and an eye is closed, the 色んな scene of a ring will have revived on the head.
The scene on which especially Sadako comes out ...
It was about frightened of fear on the third.
The comment about which it spoke by two persons when he met the friend who went to see together after one week again "there are not that movie さ, and the last or ばく.
It was ".
I think that it is the completion system of a horror picture of Japan as itself.

It is a horror picture favorite (it is whether it should say ...) even now.
Compared with the novel version, the talk is considerably simplified by the direction of a movie.
So, evaluation falls rather than the novel version.
が.
The time of this movie 見た did not think that it was fearful and fearful.
The scene on which Sadako comes out from TV will think that it is fearful, even if it sees it now.
Moreover, a person setup is considerably solid and dramatic deployment can also be evaluated.
...
imaichi Sadako's back story cannot be seen.
It is for the place of the talk which was simplified considerably unlike the novel, and I can consider it also to the place sake which forced explanation on 次回作 "a spiral." In short, the "human being" "Sadako" is calling it ...
to which the "past" of "having been alive" is not told in a ring.
In that a close-up of Sadako's talk could be taken to a slight degree, it attaches [ evaluation / ?
/ make / have you / it ] "it is good."

Although it was as fearful a movie as it comes out in a dream when it sees at first, Sadako looks humorous if it sees 2 to 3 times (smile).
This melon "from which the man who looked at this video dies after one week" is wonderful.
Although it will become desperate and will consider [ all ] whether it gets off if it carries out what, it does not happen not to think.
However, the new rule "survival is possible if it dabingu" is born by somewhere........
Although it does not understand why it dies, a face only rises at people's fearful death at first, and doesn't the process increase fear, either?
Although it becomes clear last why it dies, the point cannot be seen till then.
Although imagination was attached generally well .........
It was fearful to honto at the time of first time view た.
From television, there are not whether anything coming out and a meaning, either, and it had been worried enough, and carried out every night.
Although the highest cannot say, I think that it is a very good work.

An original is non-読.
It is the ring of the movie version which he probably sees and knows.
It was telecast several times and was looking to whenever [ the ].
He likes the scene which is on a car at the last, i.e., the last.
It was made to imagine the true last and it was immersed in a complicated feeling that it is sad.

An excessive horror thing is the kana which was not fearful rather than it considered, when seeing since it was around popular, although it was uninteresting.
Was it fearful that Sadako came out from the television of a まぁ name scene?

The time-tested product of a horror picture.
The major work.
It was expectable the opening part.
Furthermore, a setup is also good and it is also a good impression that humanity has come out.
Human relations have also improved and are success at the point.
It is made to spread...
Is it quite useless as a horror picture?
However fearful appearance may be, there is no fearfulness which sounds the heart.
Did I want you to do my best to a slight degree because only that was taking out fearfulness with the original?
I think how what does not have Sadako dreadfully generally is.
Others are too delicate although the place which comes out from television was so so (there is still nothing dreadfully).
Although performance was not found in the skillful いか lower part, it was not performance which frightens people.
Although it may be a thing with a bad supervisor ...
If it dabingu and shows people, a curse will solve [ a deep meaning ].
so so, how to finish the last came out shapely and carried out Under [ that man's death is delicate ].
Evaluation is the "worst." Although human relations etc.
have improved to be sure, I think that the horror picture which is not dreadfully too is fatal.
It is not the level which it can finish compensating with others.
The performer was good.
If there is a mashi kana ?
opportunity as mannerism is not carried out, do you want do see again and to find a new problem, although it is unexpectedly long series?
Well, probably it sees and there is no disadvantage end.

Although it is unavoidable since it is a movie, I think that it depends on vision too much.
I think that original fearfulness cannot be expressed at all.

If it is called a horror picture, it will be a husband with much people to whom this movie occurs too.
Although seen for the first time at the time of a kindergarten, it is like [ was fearful and it became impossible to go to a toilet ].
that time -- "-- such a movie -- It does not see any longer throughout life!
disagreeable, when it sees now anew, although " was thought -- is already it a great masterpiece?
The scene which comes out from the last television is a tradition thing.
Is the first "ring" the most interesting too?
Although it thinks that those not suiting are not suited, I think that it is a wonderful work for those suiting.
Of course, evaluation is the "highest."

A "ring" is kuchi which entered from this theater version.
All originals were read after that.
Both are good respectively and an original is fearful above all, although there are a setup and change of a person very well.
For me, it is a scream raising better seed involuntarily that Sadako of the last comes out from a television screen although ground wave televising was first viewing and listening.
I think that the fear which the person who viewed and listened at this theater experienced will be considerable monochrome.
It is called the boss.
Nobuo Nakagawa who photographed Mr.
Nakada who superintended 本作, and the "Ghost Story of Tokaido Yotsuya" -- is it a match?
It was impressed.

Although DVD of the 30th anniversary of "oomen" was purchased, the outline of a 本作 (of course, it also has DVD here) scenario is well alike.
the mystery of the mysterious death which happens one after another -- it should solve -- 2 -- the contents of looking for the true character of the ringleader, and the method of management while person set み is also itself exposed to fear of death From the first, although it was 本作 with an original novel, possibly it had the influence of "oomen." But the "ring" of an overseas edition imaichi and is boring.
It seems that the first problem is because the backbone of an overseas edition of the source of fear is weak although it thought at first whether the production using the small animal (the wild dog was used in "oomen" and the crow etc.
was used for the sequel) would only suit the scenario of Japanese-made horror.
the misfortune of Shizuko who said, was deserted like and did madness death of the last after Sadako was hailed as the person with preternatural power -- a 目の当たり -- carrying out -- here -- one's unfortunate が加わる -- the whole society is received by things -- hatred and a deep-seated grudge until it is frightful are held Furthermore, although added to existence of her real father who may not be man (yet true character non-Ming), depiction of this neighborhood is weak, the identity like devilish child = Damien becomes known to Samara, and the Hollywood version does not feel a lack.
as [ match / necessarily / as a subject matter / 本作 / since an understanding of as opposed to supernatural power in the American society is also deeper than Japan ] Kana in which the way rather made into the prophet or person with preternatural power of ancient times or medieval times if it was it is still dignified.

It can be called a success about the ability to have left [ Sadako's well 這い ascent and ] the impressive picture.
Although it was not a 邦画 lover, it was a setup more interesting than an ordinary oil painting.
A victim's face on its deathbed is more frightful than Sadako.

Is evaluation very good?
If horror is not fearful too ...
Is it the most fearful in a horror picture?
The place which especially comes out from television.
The place which comes out from a well.
These two were fearful to the highest.

Some causes which looked at the drama (Katsunori Takashima starring) of FUJI TV, or movie versions were unsatisfactory.
Eeriness and fearfulness think that the way which is an original won.
However, as for several [ which saw this movie ] inside, it was fearful to have seen the cathode-ray tube and mirror of TV which has not been reflected at all.
If Sadako's theme (?) is heard, greasy sweat will still come out.
It is a movie fearful No.
1 for the moment at a horror picture for me.

the time like a junior high school student -- a parents' home -- a ring -- seeing -- night -- he remembers that it was fearful and was not able to sleep But there is a thrill and I also regard deployment as interesting.
- whose Sadako of the last was fearful to the highest.
That eye is not forgotten.
The deep-seated grudge was uncanny.

The ring entered from this theater version.
It was very interesting.
people's face cursed and killed -- びっく et al.
-- the deployment which must trace the true character before the time limit cursed and killed after deep て and uncanny and incomprehensible video are shown Strain of the heroes who progress in front, and the televiewer of curiosity is carrying out the skillful く match, being exposed to fear of death.
It is the touch which looked at the true value of the Phycho horror system work for which the promise after making it be relieved in having been saved is waiting, and which is frightened by the scenario.
If an original and other genres are seen later, is completely the relation between Asakawa and a dragon 2 different?
Was it changed so that the man of preliminary knowledge zero might be immediately convinced and could follow a story?

it is original 読ん -- although it expected earnestly later and being seen -- Original one was interesting and fearful.
If turn was reverse, I thought that it was good.
even so, ーん -- an original -- いじっちゃ -- well -- or Is the hero changed into the about 5-year-old boy from a baby's girl by the woman, as for a child?
ねぇ which will be why A partner's dragon 2 -- As [ be / too different / character ] -- A 幼馴染 3 ていう setup was also lost, did it female-college-student OOO Carry out, and is ちゃった話 all lost?
My dragon 2 of that bad man (it is performing ?) was better.
how Sadako is killed -- frankly -- carrying out -- passing -- it is -- it is The more miserable eye is encountered in the original.
まぁ -- as a motive of けど which will be impossible as for making that into an image, and a grudge, original one is considered to be far strong Although it is in others, since ま-time is a short movie, it is けど which will be unavoidable.
if it is called the fearful place, the opening part should break in -- it is at least the scene of the face of Yuuko Takeuchi (faint memory) when opening, and Sadako of the last -- it is Sadako is w although it is likely to laugh that it is already made terrible neta and sees now.
How about reading [ the direction which thought was fearful on a movie ] an original?
Probably it is more fearful.
Which or the direction which is wavering recommends you an original.
Let's see first the direction both referred to as interesting from a movie, and make it into the after original.
Otherwise, disappointed w Although stated also first, since the original has been seen previously, it has been felt unsatisfactory.
Therefore, evaluation is "bad." A "ring" and it are understood if it is called horror.
However, it is the direction of not a movie but an original.

This movie was fairly interesting and I feel that it turns out that it was in fashion for it.
A setup called the video of a curse was good and it is also a good impression that the atmosphere of eye dark was, on the whole, brewing a remarkable feeling of fear.
Presence comes out and って言う which will die if a fixed period comes to it by this movie without dying in video 見たらすぐ also thinks that it would be good.
I thought that this movie was a movie of the suspense-touch rather than a horror picture.
But it is if it is called the dullness of the spiral which continues next because this ring was good.
What was necessary was to have finished only with the ring.

I call it the attractive character which calls a setup called the videotape of a curse and is called Sadako, and think that it is Hideyasu very much.
The story was also collected well, I did it and it was impressive enough.
し [ Sadako also had a large custom ].
(Smile) I think that Nanako Matsushima's performance was also good.
Weakness of the "woman is carried out, and ど母 is carried out strength and regards the word " as body present していた with it being good.
