Extended Version: Gawd knows why they cut the exciting beginning of this (and all subsequent references to it) but hey ho. Nice to have seen it. Film is still decent as a no brainer action feast and whilst not as insanely blood soaked as it's predecessor, still has numerous moments of wince inducing, bone snapping glee.

La La Land 2016
It's been a while but my love for this has not wavered one jot. It is just so well put together it hurts. Inspirations worn proudly on sleeve, brilliant songs, brilliant lyrics, brilliant score, funny, heartbreaking, pure 24 carat gold for the senses.

Oh what a blinding shame. A good cast and some really good visuals are sadly not enough to warrant this any more than a whopping 'meh' on The Conjuring Universe.

If, however, The Nun you seek is new nun Taissa Farmiga then by jove you'll be as equally let down. A proper polished mess. So disappointing when it should have been so good.
