I enjoyed it. Thought it was a solid entry in the franchise.
I will say this film by far had the most of specs and tucker. So by default,it had the most comedy. That will probably be a make or break it thing for most people.
But,I thought the horror was well done. The first 15 minutes was on the same level as the first film. The jump scares were earned and well done. There just wasn't enough of it. The main ghost had such a great design but was very underused. The climax was...anti climatic. Even if it did have some nice story book ends.
Plot wise I thought it was the most human the franchise has been. Having the plot revolve around Elise,her past and family was a high point for me.
Overall I'd say if you dig the franchise I find it hard to believe you wouldn't like this one.
Overall I'd rank it
1
3
4
2
Though I'd say 3 and 4 could easily flip flop in my ranking with repeated vieiwng. I'd say they're pretty close to the same quality wise.
7/10
