Second Time's the Charm: The Nun II
5 years ago I told y'all how I went to go see The Nun and I did not like it. At. All. What I never updated you on is that over the years, the movie has totally grown on me. While it is not my favorite movie in The Conjuring universe, I enjoy watching it and this created an excitement to see the sequel, The Nun II.
The sequel picks up 4 years after the original movie. Sister Irene is called to save the world again as it has become clear that the demon from the first film still lives on. She is reunited with Maurice in a French boarding school as she learns that the demon has latched itself to him.
The sequel is full of jump scares and moments where I had to watch through my fingers (the newsstand scene was INTENSE)! However, something that my friends and I have discussed is this plot hole- at the end of the original Nun movie, they attempt to tie Maurice to the Warrens by showing them exorcise him. I believe this should have been left out and saved for this movie. At the end of The Nun II, we see the Warrens receive a call to jump into action. At what point do they exorcise him if he is rescued with Sister Irene's help at the conclusion of this move? Is it me? Am I the drama? Because it just is not adding up to me.
Overall, this movie was such a good time. I loved Storm Reid's character and I would love to see her come back for a third movie.
