I liked Ringu. It had good atmosphere and a good story. There was a glimmer of intelligence in the writing and directing. At the time that it was released - it was new and different. Once the Americans noticed it and copied it, we became over familiar with the idea. It is a good movie, but just a movie all the same. There is nothing in it that is beyond the pale of the ususal. We watch movies to be entertained and I think Ringu accomplishes this well.
