I loved this movie because you never get to close to one character and there is a ton of suspense. It is scary because there is a ton of people that get married and there are some innapropiate parts in the movie when the girls roll up there skirts so they can show there legs more.

What Parents Need to Know
About The Grudge 2
Parents need to know that, while this teen-targeted horror sequel features relatively little actual gore, the scary scenes are tense and aggressive, with loud soundtrack effects, jarring editing, and insinuated violence. There's some brief nudity (male and female characters appear in showers and bathtubs) and a scene that sets up sexual activity (a couple goes to a hotel room and begin to undress) but doesn't deliver because the ghost strikes. Ghost attacks throughout the movie are discordant and sometimes alarming. The ghosts are very creepy looking, shadows and noises establish scary spaces, and characters scream and show fear and pain repeatedly. There is some actual violence (someone is slammed with a frying pan in the first scene, and murders are referred to repeatedly), as well as lots of abstract and menacing visual references to violence: blood on the walls and on a couple of faces, a broken neck in a contorted ghost figure, and drowned bodies.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the idea of revenge. Why do people want to inflict pain on and get "even" with those who they think have wronged them? Does revenge ever help you feel better, or does it just prolong the bad feelings and pain? How do Aubrey's relationships with her sister and mother suffer in the context of revenge? Families can also talk about the enduring appeal of ghost stories and their own views on whether strong emotions can continue to "occupy" a place.

Should have waited for this movie to play on television instead of wasting $4.00 renting it! Not horrible, but definitely not good, either.

SCARY!
I think this movie is very violent for young souls. My friend tricked me into seeing it. I had nightmares for weeks! Of corse the rating is pg-13 but I am 12 so it shouldnt matter, BUT IT DOES! If you are 15 or younger I highly recomend you don't see this.

Not the best.
Well, it was worse than the first one. This one was harder to follow than the first, it was less scary but had more of a jumpy factor, and it just wasn't what I expected. Overall, it's not too great.

Stupid!
Wow, this was one of the worst "horror" movies I have ever seen. It is filled with hundreds of cheap scares that didn't even make me jump! This film was way more funny than scary, I was laughing hysterically throughout the whole film. The story was weak and little more than an excuse to dump together bunches of lame deaths and pop-outs. As far as content goes, this movie is actually pretty violent! The ending is actually really disturbing, so this movie isn't for younger kids. Good for kids 13+

horrible horrible horrible
Can't the director see what a travesty the film is becoming BEFORE he sends it to theaters? This movie had no redeeming value at all. The acting was lame, the plot made no sense, and it wasn't even scary! I jumped exactly ONE time. The rest of the time, the audience chatted with each other and booed the movie at the end.

hahahhaha
This was one of the funniest movies of all time. SUre at some points it may have been "starteling" but beyond that it wasnt chill to the bones frightening. mostly it was a very psycological movie thta made you think about why things in the movie happened over trying to get cheap shreiks with gore. It was funny for many reasons. One, it was amusing to hear the girly shreaks from others in the theatres at completley random times. trust me...it will happen. second there is a scene where the main character is on a bus and this eldelry man is playing peekaboo and making an amusing noise for three minutes straight. I laughed soooo hard!
