Roger Ebert
It is like an exercise in cinema mechanics: Images, music, photography and mood conspire to create a sense of danger, even though at any given moment we cannot possibly explain the rules under which that danger might manifest itself.
Anthony Lane
A perplexing compound of the silly and the glum.
Stephanie Zacharek
May not be a masterpiece, but it has its share of thoughtful little angles.
Andrew Sarris
Too many loose ends.
Ed Park
The let's-travel-through-the-TV-screen sequence was better in Fat Albert.
Richard Roeper
I thought the original had a nice evil chill to it, but this is an unnecessary second chapter that dumbs down all the main characters and is curiously lacking in quality scares.

This is a campy scream-a-thon in which you can alternate between freaking and cackling.

What idiots How can anyone actually think the Ring one was not good!? Seriously, knowing the little I know about making a movie, the first Ring and Ringu were absolutely not crap. In my opinion it is actually near if not completely flawless. This movie here is not bad either. However, I agree that it was not necessary to make a second nor did it help understand anything important to the storyline, but its ok nonetheless.
Ring2 This is a good movie more action into really stopping the madness that Samora caused.
This movie... scared the f*cking hell out of me!!!!! (so did the first movie!!!). Classic horror storytelling!
Stupid How the hell did they make a sequel when the first one sucked?

Drama

True Grit is a powerful story of vengeance and valor set in an unforgiving and unpredictable frontier where justice is simple and mercy is rare. Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld), is determined to avenge her father's blood by capturing Tom Chaney (Josh Brolin), the man who shot and killed him for two pieces of gold. Just fourteen, she enlists the help of Rooster Cogburn (Academy Award Winner Jeff Bridges), a one-eyed, trigger-happy U.S. Marshall with an affinity for drinking and hardened Texas Ranger LaBoeuf (Academy Award Winner Matt Damon) to track the fleeing Chaney. Despite their differences, their ruthless determination leads them on a perilous adventure that can only have one outcome: retribution.
The Island
Blockbuster action director Michael Bay delivers a striking look at a strange world of the future in this sci-fi action drama. Midway through the 21st century, Lincoln Six Echo (Ewan McGregor) lives in a confined indoor community after ongoing abuse of the Earth has rendered most of the planet uninhabitable. One of the only places in the outside world still capable of sustaining life is an idyllic island where citizens are chosen to live through a lottery. Or at least that's what Lincoln and his fellow citizens are taught to believe; the truth is that Lincoln, like everyone he knows, is actually a clone who is kept under wraps to provide needed organs when the person who supplied his or her DNA falls ill. When he becomes aware that his existence is a fraud, Lincoln escapes to the outside world with a fellow clone, Jordan Two Delta (Scarlett Johansson), though the powers that be are determined to see that no one gets away alive. The Island also stars Steve Buscemi, Djimon Hounsou, Michael Clarke Duncan, and Sean Bean.
