"As with its 2013 predecessor, The Conjuring 2 serves up a hodge-podge of horror as the procedural paranormal work of Ed and Lorraine Warren (Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga) intersects with unexplained household phenomena. This time it's set in dreary late 70s Britain, in other words, somewhere damn near Hell already."

Flicks

"A rattletrap haunted-house demonic-possession movie made with scary style."

—

Variety

"This furiously bizarre follow-up deserves full marks for throw-everything-at-the-screen entertainment value, but none for execution."

—

Total Film

"After 'Insidious' and 'The Conjuring', James Wan has his method down."

—

Time Out

"The Conjuring 2, unlike pretty much everything else I've seen this year with a "2" in the title, might even be a slightly better film than the original."

—

Stuff

"Lacking some of the simplicity and elegance of the first installment... nonetheless a smoothly efficient horror movie, building to a powerhouse finale rooted in our emotional connection to the film's well-drawn main characters."
