Least scariest out of whole conjuring universe.
Story line was fine, first half an hour was great, makes you hopeful, ending wasn't.
The movie is directed by the same director who directed The curse of La Llarona, I don't like it very much. Bring James Wan back, let him do his magic for the next part.
We love this franchise, therefore our expectations are always high. Don't disappoint us next time.

Super predictable jump scares, not nearly as scary as the other movies, it's so easy to tell when something scary is about to happen but when it does it's not even really scary.
But I will say the acting is great and the story is told pretty well, this however has to be one of the most embellished of the movies yet. It's honestly more of an action thriller than a horror movie.

NO SPOILERS! Weakest of the series and and I have to believe the missing piece was director James Wan. The scares were way too predictable, the script felt one note and even though I went in cold I could still see the ending a mile away. Solid turns by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga as they have always done but still even they couldn't elevate this one.

Not hating on the movie and I'm actually glad they moved away from the haunted house formula, injecting a bit of other genres like criminal investigation but even though it's well paced, there's less of those nail bitting moments i love from the series. The cast still deliver the goods and the story, despite having a few weak spots was still engaging, but with far less memorable moments compared to the previous chapters.

As I said, the film doesn't have the same power and unique feel as Wan's 2, but it is a nice continuation in the franchise with an intriguing story that does delve into the crime drama genre along with giving us the scares we come to know. You can tell Wan still was involved with certain camera works and scare concepts much like he was with the mediocre yet entraining curse of LaLlarona which this director Michael Chaves debuted on. While he doesn't fill Wan's shoes at all, he was able to follow a certain format for this particular franchise to move forward though at dragging pace at times.
The actors are all very good as usual and the duo of Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson as the Warren's are phenomenal bursting with emotion as always. They carry this film completely. The effects are decently executed and the cgi looks near flawless. Some of the scares are a mixed bag of ambition and some are tremendously cliche, but they all do their jobs for the horror aspect. The ominous settings are fantastic and add rich environment for the frights to flourish.
Overall it's an effort that felt satisfying to see the premier franchise continue, but there's a definitive void without Wan's genius eye.

This third movie in the series was just ok. The director attempted to move the story away from the typical haunted house storyline of the previous two films. The problem is that the first couple films were very much liked so why deviate? True there needs to be some variety but most of these hauntings have enough variety to satisfy that.
The beginning scene is the best as it is the climax scene in a typical Conjuring movie, the exorcism. The film then devolves into satanic curses and flashy special effects while Ed and Lorraine investigate the source. In the end there is a small step between the sublime and the ridiculous and this film takes that step big time. They made the same error with the Conjuring 2 where the end scene with the lightning and the tree windows bursting would put to rest any question of demonic possession. This film goes even further with levitating and exploding windows and helicopters around.
Still the movie has some redeeming qualities. The special effects are good and the investigation, while choppy and navigating without a compass at times, is still intriguing. The scares are less but they are still there. This would be a good horror movie standalone but as a Conjuring movie it is weaker.
The most disappointing part is that the "true" story (depends if you believe in this stuff) would have made for a good movie. The documentary from Discovery "A Haunting" covered this case and it was a very good episode when I saw it.
In the end it is worth your time but it is a weak link in the series. I feel they should return to their roots for a Conjuring 4.

I've heard a lot of people saying that the third instalment of the "Conjuring" franchise doesn't hold up compared to the previous two (pretty ridiculous, considering "The Nun", the "Annabelle"-Franchise and especially "The Curse of La Llorona"). Albeit this film this different from the others, I think it's pretty neat, that the writers are expanding on "Conjuring" lore and the breaches of the universe as a whole. I also like the focus on eeriness and story-telling, rather than the cop-out jump scares which, at least in part, dominated significant sections of numbers one and two. If you're in for a shocker that makes you cling to your pillow, this might not be the best fit, but if you're just looking for a nice horror flick and enjoyed previous "Conjuring" movies, give it a watch!

This movie is such a drag. So unlike the previous installments. There is absolutely no tension and you don't feel connected with the characters.
Put Wan back into the director's chair !

The film actually is very intense from the beginning till the end. Full of murder, mystery and suspense surprises with a bit of spiritual twist! However, I think James Wan is still an edge better in the making of the Conjuring.

Everyone who's complaining that they're too much story and not enough scares, are you kidding? Story and character is the reason why we care about the stakes-that's where drama, tension and horror comes from. If it was all jump scares and lacking in story (the movie Winchester comes to mind), I guarantee y'all would've been even more disappointed. But if that's your thing, you'll probably be just as entertained by a jack in the box. While remaining faithful to the Conjuring universe, I appreciated that this third movie explored new territory so it wasn't just a repeat. It is a quality addition to the series with good production value, and much more thoughtfully-written than the spin offs. It's a win for what it is considering the impossible task the writer and the director had of pleasing all these harsh fans who couldn't even tell you what they liked about the first two conjuring movies other than "it was scary."
sorry if that's you and I read you for filth; go ahead and downvote my review ;-)

It's a different Conjuring, trying and innovating, not only in the story (no haunted house here) but also in the use of camera/direction, where we feel that we have a new director and with a different identity (good).
The scaries don't work as well as in the first two films and the new characters aren't as intriguing as The Nun or Annabelle, so, even if we still have very strong horror moments, we don't feel the same tension as we felt in the previous two. The Warrens do, once again, a fantastic job and I loved some references to The Shining or A Nightmare on Elm Street.
Personally, I still think the 2nd is the best Conjuring by a large margin (scarier, frenetic, fantastic direction, editing, atmosphere, London). The first one isn't as scary as the second, but it's really well executed with a very strong plot. This one is the weakest, but it's still interesting to see the couple in a different type of story and it's still a pretty solid horror film.

It's 1981. The Warrens (Patrick Wilson, Vera Farmiga) are participating in the exorcism of a boy named David Glatzel. It leads to the case of Arne Johnson who claims that The Devil Made Me Do It.
I noticed early on that there is limited tension in this movie. I figured out that I don't care about Arne and nothing will happen to the Warrens since this is a prequel. I don't know any of these new people. Once Arne is in prison, I also realized that the legal system would never let him go. The Warrens can't prove this stuff in a court of law. It all culminates with the realization that this story is more a courtroom drama than a horror. This is not scary. As a horror, it is a stale by-the-coloring-book movie. It has nothing inventive or compelling. The supernatural becomes a series of random superpowers. I still love the Warrens but this is a bland superhero movie.

It was good to see the Warrens again, but it was not scary at all, now I see that Wan wasn't the director. So yeah, I agree, if they're making another one, bring him back!

Have never written a review until now because this movie was beyond dissappointing. First off, if you're looking for suspense, tension, demons, decent cinematography...all the goods of the first films...you will not find it in the almost 2 hours of pieced together rubbish that is the conjuring 3. There is zero character development and by the end you won't even care that you don't understand what is going on. The special effects are laughable, as is the dialog and whatever the plot is. Plot holes, plot holes everywhere. James Wan, you were sorely missed! Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga deserved better.

This was a great film. The two main stars really anchor these films and provide the emotion and the gravity to the film.
Lots of scares and it made me jump which doesn't happen often.
It's good that it's different to the first two films and keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time.
Thumbs up from me.

It's not a bad movie at all. I quite enjoyed it. I just went into the movie prepared not to like it as much as the previous Conjuring's or even some of the spin offs, so it did exceed my expectations on how much I liked it, the damn witch lady was creepy as hell. But it still isn't the same creepy as the other movies. Without comparing it to the other films it's actually good. But I just can't help but to compare just because of the name of movie. Basically the order of the movies is 1-3 with the first being the best and the latest entry the worst, I actually like the first two Annabelle movies more than the third Conjuring, but that's because those were more creepy and scary tone than this. But overall I will watch this movie again and did enjoy seeing the Warrens on another adventure to save the day. It's always a treat to see Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga acting alongside each other, good chemistry as Ed and Lorraine.

I was looking forward to this film and the dreaded suspense and scares that this franchise has mastered over the years and was left disappointed. What we got was more story of the Warren's and their battle against evil and the played out snapping body part movements that the Japanese mastered 20 years ago. The first two conjuring films had suspense and scares galore where you would almost hide from the anticipation of what is coming but on this occasion i found it a bit lacking. It is still worth a watch and the story is decent i just expected a lot more from what has been some of the best modern horror films to date.

I watched the conjuring: the devil made me do it last night (25.5.21) at a special pre-screening and it is A very good film. It's also different than the previous haunted house conjurings and goes for the possessed murder case (similar to the exorcism of Emily rose) but this is better.
I really enjoyed it and hope for more conjuring universe movies (the crooked man)

Seriously, is this even a Conjuring movie? The story is draggy, boring, not scary at all. I wasted 2 hours of my valuable time.

Nobody:
Literally Nobody:
Lorraine: (feeling a demonic presence) Something terrible has happened here.
Definitely weakest of the trilogy and nowhere near to the first two films. This has only a handful of horror elements. Although I had very low expectations considering JAMES WAN will not be directing it due to (cough) Aquaman. A very mediocre thrill time worth watching if you're a fan of this universe.

The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, is another strong entry in the Conjuring franchise and to my surprise, the highlight of the three films thus far.
Recently I finally got myself started in this section of horror movies, with the Annabelle films to come and more. As it seems like it's own little connected universe. But I have to say, having seen all three Conjuring movies in the past weeks, I enjoyed them. And do see them as a very ''comfortable'' horror franchise. Meaning that everything outside of the horror is pleasant, the lighting is always great. The directing is great and the characters are well acted and have decent writing. All three are just very solid horror movies.
I see complaints about this not being directed by Wan and thus missing some kind of Wan magic that the previous films had... I disagree, I didn't know who directed this movie until the credits because it felt very much in line with everything I've seen before. But why I rate this even higher than the previous two is because I find it's story more compelling, the scares more effective, and the added depth much more interesting.
Directing is great, its on the same level and still has that franchise fitting stylized look and feel to the whole movie. It's not trying to be realistic, but once it switches off the lights, it becomes effective none the less. Pacing felt excellent too, whereas previous films lingered on a slow burn with an iffy finale, especially the first one.
Acting was great once again, nothing to note, characters were decent. Music was done well and sound effects too. The story actually had a bit more stakes to the whole thing, which made certain moments a lot more effective and uncertain.
Horror/scare. Best most visually scary scenes in the franchise? I think so. I barely remember the scares in 1&2. But this one has some memorable ones, especially in the first half. As with most horrors, it becomes weaker as it goes on. But still great.
CGI/make-up, all practical stuff looks great as expected. Though the one CGI scene at the cliff... needed a bit more time in the oven, a bit rough to say the least. That's the only scene though. Scenes that matter work.
All in all I came out of this a lot more satisfied than the first two.
