Although there are almost no scenes in the theatrical version that are shown on the previews/trailers, this movie did not disappoint in the make you jump factor. Yes, there are some holes and yes there are some cheesy scares but overall this movie was great. This is the perfect theater movie and you will get goose bumps, no matter what others negative reviews you may read. I have seen all 3 movies and recommend you see the first 2 before seeing the 3rd so you have an understanding as to what is going on. There are some things still not explained but I'm hoping a director's cut comes on the DVD/Blu-ray to help fill those in.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

i almost thought i was watching a different movie. they left out alot of stuff that the previews had, like the girl jumping, the mom getting snatched by the ghost, the girl throwing water on the ghost. i read they showed the previews to get you in to see the movie because they didn't want to give away the movie. well i call it trickery. i will never go see another paranormal again. i was very disappointed and leaving the theatre confused. the first 2 movies were way better than this one, and i do not recommend anyone to go and see this. save your money.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

This was honestly the first movie to scare me in theaters. Going into it I thought it was going to be very predictable but I was kind of wrong. The plot follows the same as it's predecessors, but every time something was about to happen I thought I knew what was coming and was caught completely off guard each time.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

It's the Matrix Syndrome.... the first one was like nothing you'd seen before and then each one after gets lamer as they try harder to recreate.
This one had really poor scare tactics, i blurted out laughing when the little girl got her pony tail pulled by Toby.
The creative folks behind this 3rd one were lazy.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

This wouldn't have been a bad movie if was shown on student made movie night at the local middle school and you didn't have to pay $14 for it. When a character yells "boo" into a camera and that is the scariest part of the movie for the audience, it's time to rethink your movie making career. Don't waste your time on this one.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

This was a great movie the twist at the end was amazing and it all added up at the end. the paranormal activity 2 tied in the this one. I don't know who said this movie sucks but u r crazy to think so. I will say there was a few slow parts but the action sequences make up for it. that's why i gave it 4/ stars. Here is a tip take your girl she will be on your lap in no time.

was a good glimpse of the history of the two girls and parents which was the only thing the first two were missing, good movie, still scary and jumpy, but not quite as good as the first two, BUT, did answer some questions about the origin of this ghost/demon, so maybe that makes it just as good if not better than the first two! good movie to take ur date if u want her to jump in your arms ;-)

This was the perfect way to intertwine the previous paranormal activity movies. Plenty of chills throughout. The theatre was packed and I am sure our screams and yells could be heard from outside. Now I simply can not wait for them to make Paranormal Activity 4 and delve further into the Grandmother and her involvement

I don't really care for these types of movies. However, it could have been better. First, some of the scariest scenes are in the trailers and previews; not in the movie! Save your money and stick with the trailers. Second, it isn't immediately clear what the opening sceens have to do with the remainder of the movie. For as much insight as the opening scenes give, they could have saved 10 minutes and left those scenes out.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Paranormal 3 scared everyone in the theater. it was first time I actually saw a bag of popcorn fly through the air. If you like the first 2 movies you have to see this one. If you didn't like the first 2 you may not like this one. It will scare you at least once.

What I liked about the movie is that it had some good scare factors. Really made you jump. However, the story wasn't as good and the part I really disliked the most was the fact the what you saw in the trailer was not in the movie. I think it's wrong that they deceive you like that.

I am was very disppointed in this movie.

If there's a -F grade I'd give it that.

This movie is actually where this movie trilogy began as the movies have gone in reverse order thus far. By far, this was the most revealing and action packed and set the pace for at least one more movie.. The only thing that disappointed me was that much of the theatrical trailer footage was not in the actual theater release. I'm sure it will be included in the DVD set as alternate scenes but the scenes from the trailer would have added some extra creepy and unexplainable action..
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I was expecting way more from this movie. It had good reviews and supposedly the ending was supposed to be really shocking and scary, however it ended with me saying "that's it?". I honestly have to say there was only one part in the movie that really scared me and it wasn't at the end. I would suggest waiting for DVD.

PA1 was awesome and kept me awake at night and thinking about it for months! PA2 was the exact same and a truly great pre/sequel! You could tell the writers put a lot of thought into the second movie. PA3 was just not good and disappointing in comparison. It felt like they rushed to put it together and there are so many things that don't make any sense in the overall scheme of the trilogy. I guess the good news is that I was able to sleep peacefully that same night I saw it. I hope they just stop here and don't try to push a PA4 on us next year.
I highly recommend watching PA1 and PA2!!
