Good, but...

Rating: Null/10 (24 November 2002)

I just recently went to the theater to see "The Ring". While I can't really say that I was disappointed, I just can't understand why everyone thought this movie was so terrifying. True, it did have its moments, and there are a couple of images in it that I don't think I'll ever get out of my head, but this film struck me as more of a dark mystery than true horror. I even got a little bored in the middle as the main characters struggled to develop the plot, which was creepy, but not so much that I couldn't sleep at night. If you have nothing else to do and feel like watching a movie that actually makes you think, then you'll enjoy "The Ring". I give it 3 out of 4 stars for a great plot and some really scary images.
