Review of Annabelle (2014) by Facundo N — 23 Mar 2015
Hoy me sorprendí a mí mismo: no odié esta película, ni me pareció la peor película de terror del mundo. De todas formas, tampoco puedo decir que me gustó, y aunque ya me lo veía venir, lo mucho que me gustó "The Conjuring" hizo que no pudiera evitar sentirme decepcionado. Y es que mientras ves la película (y también recordando a su predecesora) te das cuenta de que tiene potencial, pero un ritmo que se hace demasiado lento y aburrido, un par de actores protagonistas bastante flojos (en especial Ward Horton, en su caso MUY flojo) interpretando a dos personajes poco interesantes en una historia llena de sustos inefectivos y tensión prácticamente inexistente, no me permiten darle a "Annabelle" una nota mayor.
Espero que la secuela de "The Conjuring" le devuelva la calidad a esta franquicia.

Today I surprised myself: I did not hate this movie, and I didn't think it was the worst horror movie in the world. Anyway, I can't say I liked it either, and although I saw it coming, because of how much I liked "The Conjuring" I couldn't help feeling disappointed. And is that while watching the film (and also recalling its predecessor) you realize it has potential, but a pacing that is too slow and boring, a pair of protagonists pretty weak (especially Ward Horton, VERY weak in his case) as two uninteresting characters in a story full of ineffective scares and virtually no tension, don't let me give "Annabelle" a higher rating.
I hope the sequel to "The Conjuring" gives the quality back to this franchise.
