Rating: 3/5 -- The Curse of La Llorona could have been better than average. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- In spite of the absurdity of the plot and the flimsiness of the concept, there are enough bloodcurdling moments here to make you cower, jump or hide beneath your seat at least once or twice. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Velasquez doesn't have many lines...but she uses the ones she has to make as much of an impact as possible. Full Review

Rating: 1.5/4 -- The appearance by Father Perez marks this as another entry in The Conjuring Universe, but I daresay that a character from a different Warner property -- say, Clint Eastwood's drug smuggler from The Mule -- would have made for a more interesting crossover. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- A formulaic slab of supernatural dirge destined to be forgotten by year's, or perhaps even month's, end. Full Review

The movie delivers on the jump scares, and gets extra points for exploring Mexican folklore. Yet, The Curse of La Llorona suffers from generic plot and easily forgettable characters. Full Review
