September 27, 2007Directed by: The Pang Brothers.
Starring: Qi Shu, Eugenia Yuan, Jesdaporn Pholdee.
It's a film that took me a long time to really respect and like, once I had seen how amazingly scary 'The Eye' was, I was expecting something in the same tone with 'The... read more -
January 25, 2007Crap. Has nothing to do with the original Eye, nor with eyes in general. The plot is one of the most unbelievably thin that has ever been committed to the silver screen; it's amazing that they managed to stretch it out to an hour and a half. Basically, the movie amounts to the he... read more

July 12, 2010An interesting concept and some truly eerie images and scenes but parts of it were just bordering on the ridiculous when I don't think that was the intent. Really too bad because I was quite into it for the first little while but it just completely fell apart.

March 21, 2010more like the viewer goes mad trying to make sense or enjoy this movie. Cheap shocks and an incoherent script, at least you have Shu Qi to look at.

May 30, 2007The female lead actresses in this movie may be frightened most of the time, but those Asian women are just so damn gorgeous.

May 2, 2007With a more interesting premise than the first but not nearly as creepy, it is commendable that this sequel is not a retread of its predecessor but quite original in its own right.
There is an elevator sequence in this one as well, one of many inside-references to its predece... read more -
July 27, 2006I have no idea why this is called The Eye 2, I saw the first one and it has nothing to do with this one. Probably would have enjoyed it more had I not seen the first one first. I do however highly recommend the first one.

January 8, 2012Good things about this one are the always gorgeous Shu Qi and the stylish visuals by the Pang Brothers, but as far as the plot goes there's nothing all that interesting happening here, just more lurking ghosts and a scared lead wondering what the hell is happening.
I also find i... read more -
January 22, 2011Wasn't a fan of the first on, actually not much of a fan of Japanese horror at all, but I really did like this. The acting was pretty good and I really like how reincarnation was used to help develop the story involved. A couple of jumps, but it was more mood than horror. Worth g... read more

It's a movie that does its best to be more complex, more fulfilling than the average horror film. Full Review

Empregar o vazio para provocar tensão é o tipo de técnica narrativa sutil que, infelizmente, os realizadores de Hollywood têm exercitado com raridade. Full Review
