Just what I expected
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Supernatural sequel The Conjuring 2 is a fictionalised account of the Enfield Poltergeist, which allegedly terrorised the occupants of a council house in Enfield, England in 1977. Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga reprise their roles of paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren (Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga), who, having decided to take a break from investigating ghosts and demons after the trauma of Amityville, agree to travel to England in a purely observational capacity. Of course, they become far more involved than they originally intended once they see the plight of the family involved, single mother Peggy Hodgson (Frances O'Connor), and her four children, Janet (Madison Wolfe), Margaret (Lauren Esposito), Billy (Benjamin Haigh) and Johnny (Patrick McAuley), all of whom have had enough of their unwanted ghostly house-guest.At 134 minutes, The Conjuring 2 is about half an hour too long, and often feels like it is dragging its heels: there's only so many times that we need to see furniture being tossed around or the kids waking up to experience supernatural shenanigans. That said, the film is a serviceable sequel that should please fans of the original and those interested in the paranormal, partly because it is loosely based on fact (with the emphasis on 'loosely'), and partly because James Wan has had loads of practise when it comes to creepiness, the director conjuring up (pun intended) plenty of atmosphere and some well crafted scares. A solid cast also contribute to the film's effectiveness, with youngsters Wolfe and Esposito faring particularly well as the Hodgson sisters, who suffer the most from the haunted happenings.At the end of the day, the film doesn't do anything to rewrite the rules of the genre, but it's a slight improvement over the original. I was entertained enough to want to see what further sequels and spin-offs might hold (the latest being the forthcoming The Nun, which is based on the demon that is causing all the trouble in this film).
I have to say this is my all time favourite horror movie. I loved the first Conjuring but this is even scarier. Trust me you won't be disappointed, I've seen it many times and still love it as much as the first time.
The Conjuring 2 sequel Of The Conjuring also directed by James Wan is highly recommended for every horror fan! I wasn't expecting that the 2cnd chapter was going to be the same good as the 1rst,but yes It really is! The Cast did an amazing job,there's no so much jumpscares as the first one but The Conjuring 2 has a better plot and a better purpose! I really cared about all these characters! Hope James Wan continues with the amazing Movies
Other people rating this must have seen a different version because the one I saw was horrible. It might not have been so bad if they hadn't claimed it was a based on truth (it isn't, and if you think it is, you need to talk to a professional about it).Very Christian, very silly, very bad acting. Giving it 3 stars because the child actors weren't bad. The adults; however, needed a better director.
