I'm glad Hollywood finally learned to stop remaking these Japanese ghost movies, cause they sure as hell don't translate to good American films.

This was just plain horrible. The acting was a joke, the plot was one big hole after another and all the charactors were just bad people. I was actually happy when they died, I am actually angry more of them didn't die! Don't watch this steaming pile of crap.

Pulse is a terrible movie that should not qualify as a horror, or a scary movie, not to mention that it should not have been made at all. not much goes right in this film. The entire cast overacts, The writing is embarrassing and the direction is lazy. This is another japanese remake that has a good premise, but lacks emotion. Nothing is ever resolved, leaving the film empty and pointless. The ending seems like it's from another film entirely. This film is what you would get if you mixed Resident Evil and The Ring together, those two had something to offer, well, The Ring did at least.

While Kairo was a tense, scary, and well developed film this remake is completely inept and boring. Nothing is upgraded and not a single little thingee, even the red tape, is a step up from Kairo. Therefore, watch the original drudgees and avoid this and its ridiculous straight-to-dvd sequels.

Maddeningly inept horror concoction which not only can't explain what the hell is going on, but also changes the entire approach from the original Japanese chiller (which got it right!); the actors are less than enthralling and the script and other technical merits are embarrassing. Final Grade: D

I am a fan of horror and can become easily scared sometimes, yet this movie not only was full of plot holes but i was not creeped out in the least. Not worth seeing at all.

Another attempt to remake a superb Japanese horror film that falls flat on its face. Tired acting, bad dialog, sub-par scares... maybe it's time to think of something original again.
