Relies on the same clichéd horror tropes again and again. I've never heard so many creaky doors. It takes the amount of jump scares to a new level too, in fact, that's all there really is. None of the characters behave in a realistic manner either. I had to leave the cinema early. What a waste of money. When you think about all the starving people that could have been fed with the money they spent on this nonsense. Everyone involved should hang their head in shame. Expand

"The Curse of La Llorona" reduces an interesting folktale into a predictable house invasion horror film. This is disappointing to see, especially coming from the Conjuring Universe. 3.5/10

Um dos piores filmes de terror que já vi na vida. Um monstro que não dá medo ataca uma família que você simplesmente não consegue se importar. Os jump scare são patéticos e o roteiro é um amontoado de bobagens sem sentido.

No século XVII, ela afogou os seus dois filhos depois de perder a normalidade após seu marido a perseguir; desde então, o seu espírito voa em um vestido branco fantasmagórico, matando os filhos de outras mães pobres.

Focando na ensolarada Los Angeles de 1973, onde a assistente social Anna Garcia (Linda Cardellini) suspeita de que algo está errado. O problema é que na maioria das vezes, o filme usa pulos de salto imprevisíveis a cada turno e sem falar que havia uma chance para os roteiristas Mikki Daughtry e Tobias Iaconis usarem o curandeiro e as suas poções mágicas para examinar as raízes desta lenda urbana -- ou melhor ainda, dar ao filme uma volta ao princípio da história e como esta maldição influenciou a cultura mexicana. Isso poderia ressoar o público, mas parece não dar efeito. Mas Tony Amendola também aparece como seu personagem de 'Annabelle', Padre Perez no que aparece uma tentativa desesperada do produtor James Wan de fazer A Chorona parte de sua franquia bem sucedida de 'Invocação do Mal'. Ele deve estar brincando.

Lenta, aburrida, predecible, se enfoca mas en los repetitivos screamers que en intentar contar una buena historia.

The legend of La Llorona is widely known in Mexico. Believe me I'm Mexican and I listened to it many times when I was a kid and even then it wasn't scary.

I suppose this film is an attempt from Warner to connect more with the Latino audience, like what Blumhouse did with Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones but sincerely 80% of the films in The Conjuring universe are as disposable as they are lousy.

This one is no exception and it's understandable. They're easy and cheap to produce. Frankly they studio isn't interested in making a good product. They simply give the audicence their dose of jump scares and that's it.

What else can I say? I wasn't expecting anything good and as expected I wasn't surprised with anything that I saw.

The movie has couple of interesting build up but literally every single Jumpscare in this movie was done very cheaply, and that's only a couple of build up, the rest of the build up sucks and so do the movie, not only i don't found La LloronaThe movie has couple of interesting build up but literally every single Jumpscare in this movie was done very cheaply, and that's only a couple of build up, the rest of the build up sucks and so do the movie, not only i don't found La Llorona to be an interesting character or ghost or whatever, i just didn't dig her at all, and not only that, the whole movie just feel bland, flat, weird, cheap, cringe, lame, ridiculous, silly, and boring, it's so poorly written even though the performances was not horrible, they already messed up the backstory of La Llorona and they have this very uninteresting, boring, and flat continuation story, also fills with cheap and sometimes silly jumpscare and all of them was so predictable, they have this long ass build up for a very cheap short Jumpscare, some of the thing i still accept besides the performances being not bad and couple of interesting build up was the returning Priest and Rafael which i like at first then he also eventually become useless and cringe, The Curse Of La Llorona was not worth the time even if it's only 93 minutes long, besides that in terms of being a movie The Curse Of La Llorona was not only the worst movie in The Conjuring universe but it is also one of the worst horror movie i've ever watch, it's god awful, it's boring, and it's very lame, so lame.

probably the worst movie in the 'Conjuring Universe' thus far. Predictable with no genuine scares. The movie seems to trade tension with constant jump scares that fail to spark any fear within the audience.

Why would La Llorona, a Mexican folklore not take place in Mexico, yet the entire movie takes place in Los Angeles? It would be interesting to see a Mexican cast and a Mexican setting for this type of folklore to do the story justice - rather than the repetitive scars we are so use to now.

Linda Cardellini's acting is very good but the scares are very weak & not scary at all.

The most horrifying installment of the Conjuring Universe, oh sorry, my bad, the most horrible one.

The Curse Of La Llorona

Chaves is, I wish I could say, a good adapter. Since, he adapts most of the scenes from the genre itself. The originality objective is left unchecked and the director, Michael Chaves takes the blame for it. The franchise has always bugged me since the beginning. Don't get me wrong, I have been a fan of their mythology, but their flaws is something that draws me into it. They contradict themselves perpetually, their tactics fails and their philosophy lags behind. And yet, they never think of rechecking themselves. I have never seen a film take these many wrong decisions in the first ten minutes, as this one does.

Craving for cheap adrenaline shots, the overridden melodrama and irrelevant slow motion takes are clearly off putting. The story searches for horrifying moments or creating jarring impact on the audience, and instead completely forgets to make sense let alone have some rhythm to nod on. Compared to The Nun, it is certainly less animated- which is usually good- but also less scary. The tricks, something you can rely upon the franchise, too is in vacancy in here.

The build up of an antic is montage of up close shots of being scared and the execution too loud to catch us by surprise. Even the back story, the flashback, the gist of the film, isn't interesting. The boomerang aspect of the world is probably the best and untouched part of the film, the returning back theme, that Linda Cardellini finds herself in, from her own agency that knocks at her door to finding herself in the same spot that she accused others being at. Speaking of whom, Cardellini is the soul of the film, she whimpers as told and stands up against The Curse Of La Llorona as an improv, hold on to her and you might survive this.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Flat, boring and filled with clichés
Honestly I'm surprised with all the good scores in the user reviews. I'm surprised as this was easily one of the worse movies I've ever seen. The acting was subpar, the plot was so incredibly flat and easy to guess beforehand, the dialogue was futile and almost like something a writer threw together in a day or two.

If it wasn't for the decent effects, the mostly atmospherical suspense and the children's surprisingly decent acting I'd give this an even lower score. It's that bad. Don't waste your money on this like I did.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the worst "horror" movies I've ever seen. I went into the cinema expecting a regular but funny movie, but ended up bored and even mad of how much I felt scammed by it. Full of jumpscares without any sense, a ghost that has no rules at all, which sometimes it's like a god and can do whatever she pleases, and sometimes it's less powerfull than the people she's trying to... I'm not completely sure what she wants because this movie doesn't even bother to explain you anything, only tries to make you jump over your seat and think: Oh my god what am I watching. Expand

Throughout the movies runtime all I remember doing was joking around with a friend that watched it with me because of how utterly boring the story was. It had weird choices taken by characters, a monster that makes irrational decisions that make no sense whatsoever even if you try to make it make sense, and relies only on the average jump scare to actually try and scare you. I wouldn't recommend watching it if you want to actually be scared but I definitely recommend watching it if you like laughing at movies every once in a while (I certainly enjoy watching Shark Tale every now and again). In conclusion, this feels like a money grab (although it didn't really succeed at this too) since James Wan's involvement make it possible for La Llorona to be part of the Conjuring Universe. Stupid characters, Stupid monster, Cliche... basically disappointing. Expand

Worst movie I’ve seen in a long time. Completely unrealistic. Several parts of the movie they leave the kids completely alone knowing this thing is coming after them. Don’t waste your time or money on this garbage.
