Wait for the remake?! - Ring 2 review by CP Customer
Storyline very poor, and having English subtitles in white text on a mostly white background didn't help. Maybe you'll get more out of it if you speak Japanese, but otherwise don't bother. I thought I had read somewhere that the US remake was better - I certainly enjoyed the first US film.
