Featured review
Expected more, but still a very solid sequel.
This is Chaves' third Conjuring universe film and likely his best. Much like its predecessor, The Nun II does a fantastic job with the brilliant atmosphere it establishes. It's also backed up with great performances from each member of the cast, and there's some very creative sequences and camera work throughout the movie. Also loved how they used the characters of Irene and Maurice with this one too, where they felt underdeveloped in the last film.
However, this film doesn't have enough of the freaking titular Nun. It also has too many slow buildup scenes that lead to multiple unnecessary jumpscares, some questionable moments, and a few parts of the story that aren't well established. I expected more from Akela Cooper on this front knowing her stellar writing on Malignant and M3GAN.
Overall it's still very solid. It's a massive improvement over The Nun (2018) and serves as a nice entry into the Conjuring universe, even though it doesn't quite live up to the standards that were established with the demon nun character in The Conjuring 2.
