The Conjuring 2 (2016)

The Conjuring 2 Movie Review :
Based on the real life events in Enfield, England. 1977. The Conjuring 2 Follows the further adventures and investigations of the Warrens.
BUT the thing is… This isn’t a typical horror film.
Spoilers:
NO ONE dies during the course of the movie! Huge surprise, no one died in the previous Conjuring movie too.
The scares are genuine, the acting is good and this movie has surprisingly involving humane moment sprinkled throughout its runtime.
This movie, just like the previous part is not by the numbers.
Sure the movie has its share of clichés and typical jump scare moments, but the difference between this and other low grade horror films is that they actually SUCCEED in scaring you, making you feel for the characters and making you care for them and how the climax takes shape.
Overall it’s more of an investigative adventure than a just horror film.
The acting by the two leads and then four children is VERY solid and you start to believe them as real people.
The direction by James Wan of Fast 7 & SAW fame is meticulous and perfect. The music is adequate without being overbearing. All in all, a well put together film.
Fans of the horror genre who liked the previous movie will njoy this one a lot.
Rating: 7.5/10. Must watch for horror fans.
P.S : Wait for the end credits where the play the REAL tape of the incidents in the movie. This audio was scarier than anything in the movie. Because this audio is REAL.

Since its based (or believed to be based) on true events, you can't complain about plot or climax or compare it with a typical horror movie. Being said that the movie has its fair share of horror, jump scare, tension and cliches . I loved the craft used to build tension and it was effective.
