Before seeing this, I had heard many, many bad things about this film. Every review was negative. So, initially I passed up on it. But then, I just decided to watch, and to my surprise, it wasn't too bad. I thought the film was borderline decent considering all the flack the film received. I thought the film was eerie and had a lot of atmosphere, which I liked, but it lacked in character development. The parts where it was supposed to very creepy were good, and did work, but they could've been done slightly better. I enjoyed Edward Burns in this film, and I thought for a remake, it had a few decent scares. But of course this remake doesn't even come close to the original. For what it is, One Missed Call is actually fairly decent, and manages to be quite fun, if you forget that this is indeed a remake. But like every other remake, it fails to capture the essence of the original, and like with every other remake this remake tries to outdo the original with fancy special effects. The film is decent, managing only a few good scares. But this isn't as bad as everyone has said it was. Though nothing will beat the original, this Americanized version is fairly entertaining and manages to be quite fun if you allow it to be. But don't go in expecting something great, go in with decent expectations, and you might like this.
