Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Well...if you like horror movies and love sitting in the couch with a pillow, don't watch this movie. By all means, a good entertaining film - and that's it. Hint: if your child wants new dolls all the time, make her watch the movie - and "wupti"! Your wallet has been cured for never having money in it..

I watch most horror movies that pop up on Netflix etc. Not splatters tho, but this kind of stuff that put emphasis on scary rather than blood and gore. I'm not sure if I ever saw the first Annabelle, but I really enjoyed The Conjuring movies. I guess these movies belong in the "same universe", but I can't even remember which movie was Insidious and which was The Conjuring, so it doesn't really matter to me that much.6.6 score had me waiting for a better than average movie, but I'm not quite sure it deserves that high a score. This is not a classic by any means. It's well made for sure, very nicely shot, scary and atmospheric and a good watch, but if you look any deeper, it really isn't anything special. Considering this movie is about the creation of Annabelle, that whole subject is very briefly handled and it takes a lot of time before they cover it. And it's done with a couple of sentences as a told story and a few quick flashbacks, so this movie isn't even about the actual creation. This movie happens 12 years after the creation of Annabelle if I understood correctly.Acting is both good and mediocre. Actually the kids pull off much better performances than Anthony LaPaglia and Miranda Otto. On the other hand most of the actors are quite unnecessary in this movie, it would've worked better IMO, if there only had been two kids instead of many more. Most of the orphans don't serve much purpose here.There are plenty of why's and not very logical things in the script which have been covered in other reviews. These are what drop the score in my case a lot. The biggest question mark in my case is probably who or what actually possessed Annabelle and what was the motive. I understand the parents made some kind of a pact with the devil (?) to get their daughter back, but it's so vaguely handled that it leaves a lot of questions. How and why did the "devil" jump around from possessing the doll, Janice, scarecrow etc. What was it up to, killing people just for the fun of it? Maybe this is explained in this or another movie, but I've missed it then and now.Ok watch, but try not to think too much while watching.

I'll keep this as short and to the point as is needed.Do not watch this pile of horse...manure!.One of the biggest wastes of near 2 hours I've ever sat through. How people can actually laud this is beyond me.Storyline? rubbish. Acting? rubbish. Script? was there one? Ok, it too was rubbish then. Whole concept? rubbish. Scares? oh you mean those 'jump' scares which were emailed to us a fortnight in advance? Those scares? rubbish.The whole thing is a cliché of a cliché of a cliché. What is it with this modern 'big budget' horror films that the score has to be the main aspect of the film?, Why does the scares have to be in your face, over the top and ( as mentioned earlier) emailed to you a fortnight in advance? Why does the lighting always have to be the same in every film? Insidious is exactly the same. For the first hour, I thought I was watching Insidious.These films will be laughed at in 10 years time. People will hide their heads in shame that they actually bought into the crap that was on offer with this. Films like this are killing the horror genre, they offer nothing. It's studios churning out conveyor belt mass produced crap that the masses fall over themselves to see. The sooner this obsession with utter nonsense like this is done, the better. Avoid this if you have any dignity. I for one feel like my dignity has been stripped by watching it, don't allow yourselves to be hollowed out too.

Doll-maker Samuel Mullins and his wife lose their daughter Annabelle ("Bee") when she is hit by a car. 12 years later, they take in 6 orphan girls and their young supervisory nun when their orphanage closes. Polio victim Janice experiences strange occurrences at night, and it gradually transpires that something unspeakable may have happened to Bee after her death. If you're going to make a doll, why on earth would you make it so that it looks as creepy as possible? Because the one thing you can be sure of is that if a doll looks creepy, it IS creepy.I liked the main location here - one of those hot, arid farms where all they seem to farm is dust. And it was good to see Anthony LaPaglia and Miranda Otto playing parts which are a little off the beaten track for them. The youngsters are all fairly good, and the story meanders nicely on its way to setting up the events in Annabelle, itself a prequel to The Conjuring (which was not a prequel despite being followed by a sequel, The Conjuring 2). The destination is no surprise, but there is some interest in the view during the journey.It is, however, not even slightly horrific. There are sufficient loud noises etc. to make you jump fairly frequently, but that tends to be solely the result of a sudden assault on the senses, not because of anything inherently scary. Other than a creepy doll.
