The Ring: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

If The Ring was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Counted the jumpscares in The Ring. Lost count. Lost interest. Refunded the popcorn emotionally.

Hot Take: The Ring's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Director clearly thought The Ring was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Unpopular opinion: The Ring is the most overrated film of the decade
Just got out of The Ring and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

The cinematography in The Ring is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Rewatched The Ring last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in The Ring actually is?
Look, I wanted to love The Ring. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
