AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

iamrioto I seriously hope this will be the last Insidious movie. I love the first insidious but they are getting worse with each movie. The last key is not only a bad insidious movie, but a bad movie overall. They crank up the sound effects of jumpscares so loud your neighbors will jump out of their chairs . Every time I had to turn the volume down, but then I couldn't hear the dialog so I had to turn it up and AHHHHHHHH!!!! great another cardiac arrest.The movie is shallow and has no feel to it. The comic relief duo are not funny and the scariest thing about this movie is the fat guy's mullet. The demon looks like a dumbass and the last 15 minutes makes no sense.

aeminz Trust me it is not bad as people are saying. i assume they just watch the horror movies for scary scenes and not the story. I can tell that some of them didn't even watch the previous parts. The story focuses on Elise,her ghost hunter friends and her past. It shows all the emotions that how she suffered in the past because of her ability and how she overcame her traumas. She stood up to help people who are going through these haunting experiences. I wanted to see more but i think we won't get more parts because of the last scene. In the end i recommend you to watch this movie only if you have watched the previous parts.

Arivor I really enjoyed this movie and will watch it again to see if I can pick up somethings I may have missed the first time I saw it. This is another film that requires that you pay close attention to the story. It has layers that one by one are added to provide continuity and must be considered for the ending to even make sense. It does take someone with some sense of logical reasoning and empathy to see how one's personal view on what is casual, correlated or irrelevant contributes to misunderstanding their perceived situation. I really enjoy movies that allow me to think and attempt to figure out what is going on... it's called suspense. So, if you have more than one brain cell and can pay attention... this offers plenty to think about. If you're one to complain about things like "Well, why didn't they just come out and say so!" these movies are not for you. However, if you enjoy figuring and piecing a story out, this offers more than just scares... it's a story filled with revelation and redemption that few of us will ever actually experience.

Ibsen3 After enjoying the first film, you certainly get the impression that the makers of the franchise want to repeat their success. Whilst the second was underwhelming and the third unusual but a little flat, the fourth is an absolute travesty. I was left wondering how it all became so bad. Indeed, some of the recycled elements from previous movies mentioned in other reviews actually appear to make a mockery of the previous movies. It really is like some kind of parody made by amateurs.There was always a danger with continuing Insidious. After all, what made it work were a lot of features from sound to camerawork that were blatantly stolen from other films and rehashed. The jump cuts of the ashen-faced victims of the crime in the house combine 'The Shining' with the well-worn trope of crackling music from the turn of the 20th Century. There was an eerie vitality to it that raised it above the old candle-strewn, trans-dimensional cliches, revived the spirit of the classic 80s 'Poltergeist' and made you care at least a little for the characters. The techniques were strong, the comedy was fresh and unexpected and there were numerous avenues for the narrative to travel along whether exploring an historical tragedy or moving more into the realms of Demonology. However, whilst all the tricks worked nicely in the first one, the second was stale and left me quite puzzled, wondering whether they made a second film when they clearly didn't seem to have a clear direction to take the whole franchise. This is where the more serious questions were raised over whether the series was a case of style over substance.As a fan of some of the Paranormal Activity movies, I felt that they nevertheless flogged it to death when they should have trimmed it down and focused on what worked, rather than rehashing and refocusing just to prolong its shelf-life. But for me, my biggest problem with that series of films was the way that the third one ended but wasn't truly developed in the later films and lost its way. The essence of the storyline therefore became attenuated. With Insidious, the story arc wasn't actually going anywhere to begin with; it's just eating its own tail. The only thing to link it all together is Shaye and one actress alone is a long, long way from making an effective horror franchise. Whilst they re-imagined the ideas in the third Insidious, it nevertheless just didn't really work IMO and felt flat (but with extra marks for effort). Now with the fourth, they are just recycling the already recycled ideas, adding nothing. Shaye can't do much with a lazy script and worn ideas devoid of imagination. There were far cleverer ideas in the 'Nightmare on Elm Street' series than the pitiful 'demon' in this one. Frights? Scares? If you've seen just one horror movie then you'll know what to expect and see it coming a mile off. I really do feel conned and, if I had seen this at the cinema, I would most certainly have walked out.It's worth saying that, as a big fan of horror movies, you notice some films getting reviews that are way too harsh but the low rating is wholly warranted here. I often find that some very good found footage movies are low-rated purely due to a cross-section of the public who regard them all as cheap and lacking credibility as they can't suspend their disbelief on who's holding the camera. Yet some of the ideas within them and the sense of horror in the viewing experience remain raw and effective. This, however, just feels very immaturely written and directed without any imagination. I don't truly know why Shaye attracts so many comments but she was good in the first and really saved #3 in the franchise.Nevertheless, this dog has had its day, maybe two more days than it should have. Now it's begging to be put out of its misery. I don't mean to be rude but if you rate this highly then you clearly haven't seen enough good horror movies to tell the difference between good and bad.
