Review of The Nun (2018) by Grantd243 — 15 Sep 2018
The Good:
- The environment of the Abbey in which the story takes place is genuinely creepy. - Sister Irene and Father Burke are likable and well acted.
- The story connects into the Conjuring universe well. - In general, this film is well shot.
The Bad:
- This film isn't scary.
- It relies way, way too much on jump scares. - Unsurprisingly, the main group of characters seem to lose any common sense that they had the second they saw the Abbey. - There are a few attempts at comedy, but they fall flat. - The effects on the Nun later in the movie are pretty dang bad. - The story just isn't very good. It's extremely predictable and doesn't deliver on its promise of being "the darkest chapter" of the Conjuring universe. Overall, The Nun was a huge disappointment. I wanted to be scared, but instead I found myself chuckling towards the end.
