Sister Irene and The Nun is back in this most anticipated sequel from The Conjuring universe, and after watching this, you know what, just give up, stop making unnecessary sequels, or if you do, do something that really will put things on a different level. Taissa Farmiga as Sister Irene felt more important, she did more, less useless, something I felt from the previous Nun movie. But that doesn't mean that this made this movie better, because it didn't make it any better. Now I will tell you what was the few pros, and what made this movie to a disappointment. They had to stop The Nun, but they had to find out what it wanted and how they were going to stop it. They got clues, and the clues was a good thing in this movie. The clues were greatly detailed and unexpected. Sometimes they also made interesting ideas for a jump-scare, that was made in an interesting and creative way. But beside that, this movie was overall just very, very boring. It missed the suspense and the adrenaline that for example the previous one had. It was also many scenes that I felt was just there to fill up the time and make the movie longer. Some characters had backstories that suddenly appeared in from time to time, but later they never really explained more of it. The last act was just too much. Some devils just came and gone, and it was too much mess here and there, the action was either entertaining or interesting in any way. The Nun II did have so many devils, but The Nun did appear only a few times in here, so I wondered if it could be better if they changed the title, for example to Tales of The Nun? It could have been so much better, and I could understand the idea better. From my point of view this is only called The Nun II, only for the sake of the sequel reputation. But god, how disappointing. This is probably one of the most boring movies from this year that I have seen so far. To summary, this was a totally waste of time. It missed entertainment and suspense, and just so many details that could have been fixed. If you liked the first one, I don't know if you should watch this one. I had so high expectations, but well, not every movie is as good as they are showing on trailers, unfortunately. I can safely say that the trailer was much better than the movie.
