It's been a few days since I saw the film and I've genuinely been wondering if this film is even worth my time reviewing. I'm not much of a horror fan in general but I did enjoy the first two Conjuring films. Annabelle Comes Home is not enjoyable, it is so devoid of logic that it is painful to sit through.

The lack of logic is mindblowing but before the scathing review first some positives.

McKenna Grace is a talent and she is really trying her best with this one note role, she does her absolute best as does Madison Iseman.

Katie Sarife gets the short end of the stick, her performance isn't bad by any means but her character is so brainless that one can't help but think badly of her performance when in fact it is simply the writing.

For the first 45 mins - 1hour, absolutely nothing happens, nothing scary, it's just attempts at "development" but it's all the same cliches found in every post 2010 horror film.

Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson are hardly in the film and for a good reason, this is just a poor look on their resumes.

The special effects are quite well done for what I could see because sometimes the film is so dark you can't see a damn thing.

The sound design is the most impressive out of the film, sound is used as effectively as possible.

The direction for the most part is basic, it's solid I guess. Although there are two zooms in the film which I genuinely sat back in disgust for the sheer pointlessness and ridiculousness.

Look the film just isn't good, the performers are trying their best, the material is horrible, the direction is sub par, the music is basic and notes, the scares aren't there at all, the logic within the film is painful and it's taking the audiences for fools. The reviews are surprisingly positive but this film for me is on par with The Nun (2018) which was just ridiculously silly.

Annabelle Comes Home is not a great film, it's not even a good film, it's a bad film with no scares and trying actors and actresses doing their best. Go watch Rocketman or Yesterday or even better, stay at home. You'll have more fun.
