Summary: Worst horror movie I have seen in a while.
Comment: This movie was so pathetic it's beyond pathetic, entering a stage of ultimate patheticness that could be pooled together to annihilate the entire planet.
There is nothing, NOTHING, scary about the "scary girl" in this movie. Compared to The Ring and The Grudge girl she is really a joke. All the "scary" moments are nothing but cheesy and stupid, and the actors are unlikeable at best. Very VERY formulaic story also.
The only scary thing about this movie is the resulting suicidal tendencies that develop as you become willing to do anything to escape the torture of watching it.

Summary: Shutter
Comment: After reading some reviews I went out and rented this to see what I thought of it. I think it was ok but could have had a little faster pace to it once you first see this womans ghost. I have to say HELL YEAH to the new wife for leaving her husband after finding out his dark secret in the end tho. Good for her. A definite rent before you buy to make sure your gonna like it before you spend the 20 or 30 dollars.

Summary: Enough Asian Remakes Already...
Comment: The only thing worse than reading a book that is 300 pages that should have been 200 pages is watching a movie that is 100 minutes long, that felt like 3 hours long, that should have been 60 minutes long. Wait, there is something worse...trying to watch a HORROR movie an having to sit through two lame pseudo-sex scenes before anything HORROR related even starts to happen. Shutter is based on a good premise gone wrong by trying to translate it for an American audience. I am no fan of all these Asian-remake horror flicks. It was done right ONCE with The Ring...let it go. Another problem...how could an actress who was good in Transformers have totally forgotten how to ACT??? I won't even mention the rest of the cast, becasue they were clueless. The only saving grace of this movie was the ending, not just becasue it was over, but becasue it was actually good. That is the ONLY reason it gets two stars. Too bad you have to sit through the rest of this garbage to get to the ending. WASTE OF TIME!!!

Summary: Much the Same
Comment: This isn't a bad picture, it is just not all that original. After all of the Asian influenced pictures and remakes of the past few years, another movie with a creepy Japanese girl just didn't scare me. The woman in the Grudge was much more effective in my opinion. That being said, the acting is fairly solid and the story is okay. A few good moments of creepiness, but no big jumps. Aside from the end of the movie, there are no real deaths either. It is a slightly above average horror movie good for a rent first. I'm sure some will like it enough to buy, but I wouldn't recommend a blind buy.

Summary: An average remake of the original, which was also kind of average
Comment: Watch the original Thai version of this film instead -- the remake is not as good, although I cannot fault the acting. I can't really say much more on this since the remake is really rather unremarkable. I wasn't a big fan of the Thai version either, although it has its chilling moments, there are other Thai horror films that are much more interesting. If there is anything interesting at all in both films, it is that they pose the plight of women in a society of coercive male abuse, and makes a good point (without saying much), about otherwise good men who don't do anything to halt the abuse.
