MOVIE: The Nun (Film Review)

Movie Premiere Invites




From the ever generous @dohafestcity , @voxcinemasqatar & Virgin Megastore, we were again opportune to attend the movie premiere of this weekend’s horror film The Nun, the 5th film of the Conjuring Franchise, which takes us back to the demonic story of Valak. Director Corin Hardy uses a monastery as his cradle for the entire movie. & while the shadowy creepy face of Valak is all over the trailer, you will be surprised of novitiate Sister Irene’s (played by Taissa Farmiga) fresh & innocent look, giving the film a canny feeling & a lot engaging than the previous franchises. TRIVIA: Taissa Farmiga is Vera’s younger sister, the actress who played Lorraine Warren in The Conjuring 1&2.


Accompanied by Father Burke, they were sent by Vatican City to Romania to investigate a mysterious suicide. Escorted by a local commoner Frenchie who witnessed the incident, they went to abbey & look for answers. Along the way, the three experience different evil things. With the help of eerie settings, dark woods & gloomy images, you will feel something creepy is gonna happen. Well of course, it’s what we are waiting for, something will appear from nowhere & will scare us big time.


What I love the most about The Nun is its effectiveness. It feels like Valak is really in front you & her hollow eyes are looking into your soul. Not to mention the amazing 4DX experience (we experienced the same at the movie premiere of Pacific Rim: Uprising), which helps the storyline more realistic. There’s a wow factor for me when Sister Irene & the other nuns are uttering non-stop Latin prayer. But what Really hooked me is the technique they used albeit simple yet effective enough to frightened us even by just seeing the first scene. No confusing subplots, very minimal flashbacks, & no appearances of actors from other franchises.

All i can say is Amidst marvel’s superheroes & star wars flying objects, THE NUN IS A REAL GAME CHANGER! 👍
