By Matt Patches (283) for Time Out (7,510) on 12 Sep 2013

Even before Wilson goes full Jack Torrance and Barbara Hershey shows up to investigate an abandoned hospital Scooby-Doo-style, one could technically…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Perri Nemiroff (375) for Shockya.com (657) on 12 Sep 2013

Talented filmmakers manage to elevate the uneven narrative and produce an entertaining experience, but 'Chapter 2' is nowhere near as refined…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Michael O'sullivan (1,712) for Washington Post (9,851) on 11 Sep 2013

Considering how creatively bankrupt and stylistically profligate this second installment of the franchise is, the new movie should really be…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Rich Cline (3,056) for Contactmusic.com (927) on 11 Sep 2013

After his assuredly traditional The Conjuring, director James Wan bounces back with a more playful horror movie that subverts cliches rather…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Jeffrey Lyles (696) for Lyles' Movie Files (591) on 11 Sep 2013

The most enjoyable thriller I've seen in years and one of the easiest recommendations for fans of the genre I'll make all year…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 11 Sep 2013

The sequel's not bad; it's not slovenly…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

This sequel is not nearly as scary as the first one…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Claudia Puig (2,080) for USA Today (4,117) on 11 Sep 2013

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Jim Judy (1,199) for Screen It! (1,437) on 11 Sep 2013

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Sara Stewart (700) for New York Post (6,650) on 11 Sep 2013

At the start of Insidious 2, a young woman opens her mouth to speak and someone else’s voice comes out of her. Demonic possession…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By William Bibbiani (788) for CraveOnline (813) on 11 Sep 2013

Seriousness is not on the agenda. This is just a simple, fun time at the movies. Or an unusually good pilot for The CW…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Barbara Vandenburgh (315) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 11 Sep 2013

Except where “The Conjuring” invigorated horror-movie tropes with inventive application and strong characters, Insidious only wallows in them…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Scott Foundas (913) for Variety (12,700) on 11 Sep 2013

By Jeannette Catsoulis (1,537) for New York Times (5,786) on 11 Sep 2013

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Jay Stone (286) for Canada.com (402) on 11 Sep 2013

There are a few legitimate scares in the film, but they don't stick with you like those in the first Insidious…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013)

By Rafer Guzman (1,080) for Newsday (2,345) on 11 Sep 2013

By Geoffrey Macnab (1,253) for Independent (UK) (2,026) on 11 Sep 2013
