I am disappointed with this film. I can't believe I fell for the previews and I watched it at one of my uncle's house. I couldn't even get through the entire film, so I stopped watching it. Joshua Jackson is an... Full review

I never saw the Japanese version or any trailers so I assumed this would be horrible seeing as most horror movies that don't get alot of discussion are. I figured it would just be laughably bad and I would be entertained... Full review

This film was one of the better Japanese horror films I've seen (at least in comparison to the Ring). It had more of a plot and seemed less predictable, especially the ending. Sort of like a haunting of a past love... Full review

Is it just me or was this movie too much like The Grudge? It wasn't horrible like The Grudge though. This movie was done by the same people who made The Ring. The creepiness factor of The Ring wasn't in the... Full review

But Shutter is almost perversely upfront in connecting privileged, self-justifying white boys with the problem at its core. For all Shutter 's pedestrian plotting and ho-hum scares, this detail of the ghost's motivation gives pause. ... Full Review

PopMatters
But in the end, Shutter fails because it's simply not scary. Except this is not the angle Shutter chooses to take, nor have previous films that tried a similar trick-the ridiculous remake of Ju-on did the same thing and did nothing with it. ... Full Review

I had some high hopes for "Shutter" after hearing of how well the original film did and hoped that this remake would be at least half as good. However, I´d be far more willing to spill my water than dish out praise for the film, but the water tastes good and "Shutter" looks decent enough so my rant on spring water can end now. ...

Based on a 2004 Thai horror flick, this surprisingly effective Hollywood remake is actually set in Tokyo. The movie also gets into the phenomenon of "spirit photography," which suggests that the dear departed make their presence known as white flashes in snapshots. ... Full Review
