Light years better than the first one!
So let me start off by saying this is the first time going to see a movie in dbox seats and I have mixed feelings. They were synced really well with the movie and did help create a immersive experience. The only problem was I was thinking about the chair moving every time it did for a few seconds that did take me out of the movie. My girlfriend hated it due to the fact that she was going to be scared regardless of her eyes being closed due to movement.
Now onto the movie. A prequel to a prequel that is way better than it ever had to be! This movie actually had good characters, great cinematography, and some pretty well earned scares. I loved all the nods to the "universe" it's created and really am looking forward to the next chapter. I felt they expanded on the mythology in a positive way and the nun is set up perfectly. The first act was a little slow but once it hits that halfway point it shifts into first gear. Definitely check this one out!
