The bottom line, for me, is this: I don't scare easily at horror films, but I watched Paranormal Activity 3 in a state of high anxiety.

The Hollywood Reporter
Although not exactly breaking any new ground with its by now all too familiar found-footage format, Paranormal Activity 3 hews to the formula in expertly crafted fashion, mustering up the requisite scares and then some.

Boxoffice Magazine
The more traditional haunted house feel and fresh focus should please diehards and pull in new fans.

Arizona Republic
More of the same, using the found-footage tricks the first two films employed to try to shock the audience. But man, are those some good tricks.

Austin Chronicle
More funhouse spook show than actual horror movie but, like the black magic roller coaster ride it's predicated on, it has a startling amount of jolts, frissons, and downright freak-outs to qualify as the best teen date movie of the month if not the year. Boo. Scary.

Where Paranormal Activity 3's weak points show are in the unbelievable silliness of its characters.

Variety
Much like its predecessors, Paranormal Activity 3 is a slow-building, stealthily creepy supernatural thriller that takes a teasingly indirect approach to generating suspense and escalating dread.

IndieWire
Paranormal Activity 3 hardly adds anything new to the situation; instead, it pretends to fill a gap while basically just heaping on one calculated "boo!" after the other.
