Anthony Hopkins is really strong in this movie, the story is pretty good but not any big surprising elements, and a happy ending.

I went to this movie a few weeks ago and I have to say I thought it was very well done, even for a PG-13 film. It was disturbing and the best "exorcism" movie since you know, the Exorcist.

I reviewed the movie here:

if anyone is interested in reading a review.

In 2009 & 2010 was the PATHETIC 3D trend, now we have another trend: POTENTIALLY GOOD or VERY GOOD HORROR MOVIES WHICH RECEIVE PG-13 RATINGS. Cash Cash

Let's face it, there hasn't been a good movie about exorcism for 35 years, and that one was rated R, coincidence? But hey it'll make money and that's all that matters. All the little high school fucks who went to see The Ring, The Grudge, Shutter, The eye, etc... they will have something to look forward to now. For the rest of us, a lot more waiting is all there is.

Unfortunately I have to disagree. I enjoyed Exorcismus quite a bit.
