It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Being so much hyped i had watched in my college time the original Paranormal activity and let me be very frank found it too over hyped. I was disappointed. Is this better? that would be saying the obvious and the effort shows especially in the writing.The acting is good and i found it to be one of the few satisfying horror flicks...The jumps may not be much but the chill is eerie...I will say this that i did like the film...not a great film may be but definitely a one time treat for the horror fans and even for its found footage style it rarely bores you Now how many flicks can say that? Go for it if you ask me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haruka Yamano (Noriko Aoyama) returns from America to Tokyo in a wheelchair with both legs with multiple fractures in a car accident and is helped by her father and her brother Koichi Yamano (Aoi Nakamura). Their father travels to Singapore for business meetings and Koichi takes care of his sister and films her most of the time with his camera. On the next morning, Haruka tells that her wheelchair had moved during the night and Koichi check the windows of her room to see if a stranger has broken in their house. He tells that probably a spirit had moved the wheelchair and he uses salt near the door of Haruka's bedroom to protect her against evil spirits. However, on the next morning they find that the salt is spread near the door. He checks the tape and believes that the house is haunted by a ghost. He decides to tape his room too and along the days, weird noises and events happen in the house.They invite the priest Saionji to purify the house against ghosts and along four days nothing unusual happens. Haruka tells to Koichi that, in America, she had hit a woman called Katie that had just murdered her boyfriend and appeared in front of her car. Their father returns home but he needs to travel again. But on the fifth night they see in the tape that the house is still haunted. Koichi decides to call Saionji again, but they learn that the priest had died five nights ago after leaving their house. Haruka discloses to her brother that weird things had happened to her also in America. Further, she tells that she had researched the life of Katie and had found that the girl was also haunted by ghosts. Now the fiend is more violent and still haunts the siblings and they do not know what to do.The low-budget "Paranômaru Akutibiti: Dai-2-shô - Tokyo Night" is a remake of "Paranormal Activity", with a similar story. After the original "The Blair Witch Project", many low-budget movies made with hand-held camera have been released. "Paranormal Activity" is ridiculously overrated but this Japanese remake is better than the original. However, the remake of a bad film may be even better, but never a great film. Last but not the least, this is the first time that I see a Japanese remake of an American film and both do not worth watching. My vote is four. Title (Brazil): "Atividade Paranormal Tóquio" ("Paranormal Activity Tokyo")
Well... I saw that many people have different views of this movie. Just like the other American Paranormal Activity movies, this one has its pros and cons.In some aspects it's a little better than the American Version, but in other aspects it's not as good. When it comes to scary, it delivers pretty much the same amount of frights (and if not somewhat better). When it comes to the story, it drives off from the original story into a new one that doesn't seem so creative. There were some surprising new elements into this installment, some that were good and some that were not as much. The ending was a bit weird, but I thought that was better than the original American ending. I just wish that the script wasn't so rushed. In short, some aspects are better and some aren't (I wouldn't say worst), yet it's a fine entry to the Paranormal Activity saga, I just think it was a bit unnecessary to do this semi-sequel/semi-remake. But some people differ from this opinion saying it's better than the American Version and some prefer the American one. But this is just my point of view, I think I'll stick to the American version, though I wouldn't mind seeing another Japanese installment.
The Yamano family lives in a secluded home in a remote Tokyo residential area. Their 27-year-old daughter Haruka suffered a compound fracture in a car accident while traveling in America. Haruka returns home in a wheelchair. There to meet her is her younger brother 19-year-old Koichi. Their father is away from the Yamano resident due to a business trip abroad. Koichi is left to take of his sister for until she can walk again.I've been heard a lot about this movie, of course because of the first two sequels. I gotta be honest i didn't like first Paranormal Activity, it was just money making machine it was created with 15,000$ and bring over $107,917,283 so i guess the team that making movie did really great job (about the money part) So i finally watch this film, and i gotta say it was like first 2 sequels. I don't want to bear at it. so i just gonna say: If you liked Paranormal Activity 2007 (first part) You gonna love this to. thanks http://www.imdb.com/user/ur23690923/?ref_=nv_usr_prof_0
