Critics Consensus

The Nun boasts strong performances, spooky atmospherics, and a couple decent set-pieces, but its sins include inconsistent logic and narrative slackness.

O diretor falha em assustar e traz uma obra cheia de conveniências toscas.

Cuando comenzé a verla, me di cuenta que olvide literalmente toda la pelicula desde que la vi por primera vez por allá en el 2018. En resumen: Entretenida, desaprovechada y divertida.

Rolling Stone

Once everyone gets to the abbey, the film simply gives up the ghost and cynically indulges every horror trick in the book.

Rated: 2.5/5

Salon.com

By overly relying on jump scares, "The Nun" uses a mechanical approach toward instilling fear rather than a more profound understanding of terror.

Rated: 2/4

Irish Times

Alas, The Nun is more chaotic than most of the many, many films set in The Conjuring universe. To compare it to a ghost train would be to understate the narrative cohesion that habitually governs those seaside entertainments.

Rated: 2/5

But then you get to the storytelling which slowly sucks out the film’s potential.

Deep Focus Review

Despite its talented cast and the chilling location, neither director Corin Hardy nor the screenplay engages the viewer in any memorable or substantive way.
