Why was this made? Why did they think it was a good idea to remake this? Why does it take the plot of the original film and throw it out the window? Why does it look like an uninspired, totally predictable, and an overall sorry excuse of a horror film?! It's 2020, people! A new decade is already here... STOP REMAKING STUFF THAT DOESN'T NEED TO BE REMADE!!
So get this: it's a remake of the film that is a remake of the Japanese Horror film: Ju-On: The Grudge (fantastic movie, BTW) and they took that and made it into one of the most predictable stupid films ever. And it's already 2020, and I thought unnecessary remakes were outlawed (they should be). I don't even see who is the target audience of this film, and I don't see who will watch this film a second time.
Weak Storyline, Bad Cinematography, and Unnecessary Jump Scares makes this film not worth your money. What a complete disaster! TERRIBLE film!!

Detective Muldoon (Andrea Riseborough) moves to a small town in Pensylvannia with her son Burke (John J. Hansen) to work in the local Police Department. She is assigned to be partner of Detective Goodman (Demián Bichir), who has recently lost his partner Detective Wilson (William Sadler) that was obsessed by a murder case. When Muldoon and Goodman find the remains of a woman in a car in a closed road, Muldoon realizes that her address was the same of the murder case Wilson was investigating. She decides to investigate the house and soon she learns that there is a curse for those who enter in the house.
"The Grudge" (2020) is a horror movie based on the vengeful spirit from the excellent "Ju-on" (2002) and the American version "The Grudge" (2004). The cinematography is uncomfortable and the viewer startles in a couple of scenes and in the end, it is a reasonable entertainment. The conclusion is predictable. My vote is five.

Went into this seeing the 4.3 rating and being like aww man it's gonna suck, it's really not that bad, the film does a lot of time jumping around but you can follow it, the story line is mehhh, but theres a lot of scares, cringe moments, anticipation, it's not a 4.3! Watch it alone, late at night with headphones on and you will enjoy!
So this movie is not Ju-On. Not even close to it.
The story places itself in it's universe, it uses it's known sound effect and the idea of the curse. That's all.
Otherwise, you are going to see terrible actors without character. There's is no character arc at all. The story is just a CHEAP (with big letters) ripoff...
It's all about weak jumpscares (you even know when to expect it as they turn the sound off to warn you) and plotholes ofc.
I would not make horror movies as it's not my style, but there was a scene in a wardrobe.. How an Earth did anyone on set thought that it was the right setup?
They missed everything that made Ju-On good and put their amateur thinking into this movie instead.
Not worth the money. (There were 2 people walking out of it.)
Btw, the cinematography, the editing, the acting, the directing (especially) was just awful.
I wouldn't recommend it to anyone even if you liked any of the Grudge movies.

Good photography and direction but the script makes no sense. From the beginning to the end I asked myself: why this is happening?
What's going on here?
I was a fan of the original one, the original story and the turn at the end made a great movie.
So why this?
