Plot:
Rachel Keller (Naomi Watts) and her son Aidan (David Dorfman) have relocated to the quaint mountain town of Astoria, Oregon, where Rachel has found a new job at the local Astoria Gazette, working alongside reporter David Rourke (Simon Baker). The discovery of a local teenage homicide whilst scanning the electronic Astoria Police archives prompts Rachel to uncover the truth behind it. Before long, Rachel has linked the homicide to the mysterious video tape. When Rachel is within reach of uncovering the secret, she finds and then destroys the killer videotape. Bad move. Soon after, Aidan is hospitalized; unconscious, perilously cold, and bruised. Rachel suspects this is the act of the vengeful ghost Samara Morgan, but the local physician, Dr. Emma Temple, suspects otherwise. Having being blamed for child abuse and looking guilty as sin, Rachel returns to Seattle to dig deeper into the past of the ghostly Samara who is apparently trying to re-enter corporeal existence by using Aidan as a conduit/host. Will the secrets Rachel uncovers solve problems, or will they end more lives? IMDB

Review:
A bad movie.
More of the first movie. The only interesting thing in the movie was Sissy Spacek, and her role was so small that it didn't help enough in the movie.

The movie is just like the first one - except in a different town. The story is not carried on nor do you learn anything new about the situation. And a whole bunch of stuff happens without explaination of why, and a whole bunch of stuff happens that is unbelievable - even for a movie like this.

It is dull and boring.
Don't watch this one. If you want to watch more movies like The Ring - especially to learn more about the complete story, which this movie doesn't do, then skip this one and go find yourself the Japanese originals.

For a lack of a story, the same story as before, and lack of scare:
