Scary Movie

Pros: Like most Hollywood comedies, it has three strong laughs and three or four weak ones
Cons: Well, can't I get six or seven laughs in as many minutes from a rerun of The Simpsons--saving myself several dollars and more than an hour of my life?

Because my wife is one of her boss' favorite employees, we were sent home from the company Christmas bash with virtually all of the unconsumed beer from the party.

And because my wife does not drink beer, the not unenviable task of draining...

Pros: It finally ended
Cons: Way to much male frontal nudity for my liking

Having completely failed my mission to find a laugh-so-hard-you-fall-off-you-chair new release to video movie, I decided it was time to take some drastic measures. Yup, that's right, I decided to spend the $7.50 to see a movie at the theater (something...

Pros: A few laughs...
Cons: ... too dirty

The sound of popcorn popping starts as a young beautiful blonde starts a movie. She receives a phone call with a scratchy voice resembling that of the voice from “Scream” in fact it is meant to sound like it. Following the story line of “Scream” the...

Pros: A Few Funny Scenes
Cons: Everything else

There are several words and images that come to mind after watching this movie. None of them relate to the word "scary". I would forgive the obvious lack of plot and dialogue, not to mention performances, photography and originality if there...

Pros: Laugh factor & ripping on crummy movies.
Cons: Not for children, yet people still seemed to bring them.

The movie was definitely made to be a rip off of Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and other various movies that recently came out.

I tuned into MTV (Don't ask why) and the Wayans Brothers were talking about the film and why they made...

Pros: Some slight goofy laughs
Cons: Excessive sexual content only enhances the unfunniness of this flick.

Yeah, yeah, I know appealing to the lowest common denominator has been all the rage in cinema ever since Jim Carrey made his a$$-cheeks "talk" in Ace Ventura, Pet Detective, but come onnn, 85 minutes of lowbrow genitalia jokes does...

Pros: Funny
Cons: Fairly Disgusting

Scary Movie is a reasonably good movie. Many of its apparent faults are forgivable, because they are probably intentional, given what the movie is: a super-schlocky spoof of the somewhat hokey horror movies of the last five years or so....

Pros: Funny Parody of the Horror genre.
Cons: Lacks any real sense of plot line development.

It's an interesting concept to make a parody of a satire, however with 'Scary Movie' this is exactly what has been done, taking the storyline of 'Scream' and turning it into a comedic spoof. Although 'Scream' is the main film parodied here, they've also ...

Pros: Hysterically funny
Cons: Too short, very graphic

Okay, so I wasn't terrified, even though I found this movie to be frighteningly funny(yeah, that was bad, I know...).

Recently it seems that not much has been released in the way of movies that I have found even remotely interesting....

Pros: This comedy is definitely among the raunchiest of the raunchy. It is racy, crazy, idiotic, funny, and an “as low as you can go” film. Carmen Electra is also an electrifying screen pleasance.
Cons: This movie is beyond offensive with gratuitous male nudity and other dirty jokes. Also, in order to appreciate the true appeal of this film, please watch a lot of other movies.

Alternate title for my review: Scream If You Want to Know My Perspective On This Horror Flick Which Was Released in Theaters the Summer of 2000 Before Halloween and Not On Friday the 13th.


Well, what...

Pros: There is some humor, somewhere...
Cons: It basically should come under the catagory of 'so stupid I laughed'.

Let it be said for the record, I did not really like this movie. It was one of those that my husband said 'come on, lets try it'. Why on earth I listen to him, I do not know. But off we went with the dumbest movie I have seen in a while.

To...

Pros: Farris is sweeeeet.
Cons: No genuine laughs, just cheap gags - and poor ones at that.

Scary Movie right? Now I know everyone’s got an opinion and that they’re entitled to it, but I think the main issue is being missed here. The discussion about this feature is not whether it's good, bad or ugly, bit essentially what, in the name...

Pros: None
Cons: You just spent 90 minutes of your life watching this

I recently attended the Megaplex and plonked myself down in front of this film - thinking that I would be cueing myself in for a fairly harmless, lighthearted take-off of the 90's postmodern horror flick...

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES SEE...

Pros: lots of laughs
Cons: tad too much penis?

Scary Movie was originally two scripts for two different spoofs by two different production companies. Eventually both didn't feel the need to make them and in came Keenan Ivory Wayans. Producer of "I'm Gonna Get You Sucka", Wayans has a way to...

Pros: Some clever gags mocking horror movies; the cast plays the material for all it's worth
Cons: A little (OK, a lot) too heavy on the bathroom humor
