Set your expectations low and you'll never be disappointed.
The Grudge 2020 was surprisingly good and the hate probably came from people who anticipate more ghostly presence from original. The film-makers actually do a great job setting a different plot and deflecting from Japanese source, nothing is worse than a forced crossover.
Cheap jumpscare was there as usual, like most modern horror suffers from. But the scene where Detective Muldoon hug her 'son' in the room turn out to be Melinda was genius. It was jump scare done right.
It was decently made reboot or remake of a remake. The acting was convincing especially Riseborough.
