Review of The Grudge (2019) by Riordanpett — 27 Jan 2020
Just got back from the cinema.
Save for a few nice cinematographic shots and a few cleverly hidden ghosts throughout the film (if the viewer was paying attention), this film was NOT The Grudge. A few jumps, but nothing in comparison to any of the other films. Kayako was in the film ONCE - in the first two minutes of the film. Toshio was nowhere to be found. The rest of the film consisted of her rip-offs, in America. it just didn't feel like a film from the franchise, the only part that felt familiar in the slightest was Kayako's croak sound.
You can't stick Kayako's hair on the promotional posters, call it "The Grudge" and pass this off as a film from the franchise.
A harsh rating of '1' for the okay cinematographic shots and Jacki Weaver.
