I have watched all the Sadako movies before this, but my least favorite storyline was the 3D one, if that helps define which Sadako movies I like (without spoiling anything). This movie was good quality, with beautiful actors/actresses, and music/sound effects were effective for creating a thrilling horror experience. As for the story, it didn't seem to introduce much lore about Sadako, and at first it felt like it was just repeating the plot from the earlier movies. But there is a twist later on in the story and the writers did a good job with making it logical. The acting was amazing, and I loved both the leads. Great for a watch, and it didn't feel as scary as some of the other ones, but maybe I just knew what to expect, and it wasn't as bad as Sadako 3D
