The Conjuring 2
(2016)

Fantastic Sequel
The Conjuring 2 exceeded my expectations. After a lot of horror movies going downhill and failing ridiculously, James Wan comes back for his 'Conjuring' franchise and rips it. Most of horror sequel don't live up to the expectations of it's predecessor but The Conjuring 2 was, IMO, better than the first one. James Wan has done a magnificent job here.

You know a horror movie is scary when the title comes on and it scares the hell out of you. The cinematography, the tension the movie builds is on point. Even paintings and pictures scare the **** out of you. The movie includes no blood or gore (except the first scene) and still manages to scare the life out of you. James Wan doesn't follow the horror movie blueprint. In a regular horror movie, traditionally, when you're trying to prove a ghostly creature in your house to someone but the unusual doesn't show up until the people are gone. James Wan isn't following the tradition, instead the unusual happenings happen in front of anybody, there's no hiding. You see a lot of movies where actors are trying to investigate and all those stupid thing that you'd never do in real life, The Conjuring 2 is as same as what we'd do if we were in those situation. First time ever i've seen smart people inside a horror movie who do the sensible thing to get out of the house.

There are lot of things James Wan has done by not following the horror movie blueprint and it has absolutely paid off. The movie is 10/10 scary. Actors are smart and acting is very good. Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson are back again as the paranormal investigator and demonologist. Acting is top notch. Even those 5 British kids and Frances O'Connor playing British mom was outstanding. A huge performance mainly by Madison Wolfe A.K.A Janet and her acting was marvellous.

For those who liked The Conjuring would really love The Conjuring 2. It's 10/10 scary, 10/10 acting, 10/10 creepy soundtrack. 10/10 jump scares, 10/10 scary creatures and 10/10 movie. Well done to James Wan for single handedly carrying horror franchise. Would go first day for The Conjuring 3 if it is to ever happen.

Real Message
My friend suggested me to watch this movie. I didn't expect anything out of it, just wanted to pass some time. After the movie ended, I felt like I had never seen anything like this before.. It even made me write a review. Such a beautifully made movie, has got everything. Teaches you about the power of love and innocence. Sometimes we take our life as granted and all we think is we don't have anything. This movie tells you how to realize and work with all that you have, no matter how you are. Brilliant way of telling a story of a young boy Forrest and his life. Not only through the eye of Forrest, but a mother, a friend and general people. The way your innocence wins over anyone you come across is exceptional, and all you will leave behind is love and respect. Magnificent movie.
