Scary Movie 4

Pros: Farris, Bierko, very funny
Cons: Too much relienace on physical and sexual humour

I’ve not seen any of the previous Scary Movie films and wouldn’t have been interested in this one – but then I found out that Jim Abrahams and David Zucker (who were behind Airplane!), and had an 80 year-old Leslie Nielson ...

Pros: some funny parts, Anna Faris
Cons: many jokes that fail, story not too strong, will only appeal to fans of series

Cindy Campbell has taken on the job as caretaker for someone, and discovers to her horror that the house is haunted by the ghost of a little boy. It also doesn't seem like she is really up to the task of taking care of someone else, and we find out that ...

Pros: Great job recreatings sets and effects from the source movies
Cons: Not as funny as it could have been

Scary Movie 4 is the fourth part of the runaway hit series of movies that parody recent horror and science fiction films. Each one of these movies has been a huge success going all the way back to the surprising $40+ million opening weekend of the ...

Pros: enough rapid-fire jokes to hit something, even with aim this poor
Cons: wasted talent, lazy production

Scary Movie 4 reminds me of Kilpatrick's Law of Trailers: A good trailer is no guarantee of a great film, but a lousy trailer is an almost certain omen of failure.* One look at this film's best scenes tells, in three minutes, why 83 minutes ended up ...

Pros: Some laugh-out-loud funny parts, selection of well-known movies
Cons: Lots of gross-out comedy, some jokes fall flat

In this season of lackluster movies, it is refreshing to see a film that delivers exactly what it promises; no more, no less. Such is Scary Movie 4. From the previews and my familiarity with other films in the franchise, I expected spoofs and ...

Pros: …
Cons: …

I was holding off on writing this review until I had posted the review of F orbidden Planet for two main reasons. First, I like posting reviews in the general order in which I’ve seen the movies. Second, I had noted ...

Pros: Some funny parts, acting.
Cons: A lot of the jokes just don't work.

I wanted to see Silent Hill but I got there too late so the next best thing was Scary Movie 4. I had low expectations because I hated the first two Scary Movies. I was happy to see that this one was PG-13 because the first two were R and ...

Pros: Some amusing spoofs of contemporary films and events
Cons: It wasn't movie theater price-worthy

There's something about the Scary Movies that draws me back to seeing it again and again. But there's something about it that puts me off, it might be the comic timing of the jokes or a scene that just doesn't belong there. Honestly, I found the trailer ...

Pros: Consistently funny adolescent humor
Cons: Consistently funny adolescent humor

With three prior members of the series already the stuff of legend, you probably already know what is going on. The Scary Movie franchise consists of an alleged movie containing endless bad jokes, puns, sight gags and slapstick with sexist, crude, ...

Pros: Decent Preview
Cons: Terrible Acting, Categorically Not Funny, Not Clever, Pretty Much Everything

A friend of mine is a huge fan of horror films. She has been having a rough time at work lately and so I had the idea to surprise her with a night of decompressing where we would have a nice dinner, talk and watch a stupid movie. I had recently seen a ...

Pros: Some good laughs.
Cons: Zero Plot and some jokes do not work.

Anna Faris returns as Cindy Campbell in the fourth installment of the popular “Scary Movie” franchise and your favorite horror films will never be the same. Continuing the tradition of lampooning the horror genre that was established in the three ...

Pros: Some funny moments
Cons: way too over the top in a myriad of ways, some unnecessary scenes

I shouldn't have gone to see this movie. I admit it : when I saw that the fourth installment of the Scary Movie series was going to take shots at duds such as War of the Worlds and The Grudge, not to mention having a Saw skit when Dr. Phil cuts off one ...

Pros: A couple of funny moments.
Cons: An overwhelming waste of 86 minutes.

Having been a fan of the first three films I was somewhat reluctant to see this fourth film in the series when it was released as my gut feeling was that this would be a complete disaster of a film. Having read mixed views on the film when it was ...

Pros: Anna Farris, Enthusiasm, A few jokes
Cons: Disgusting humor,inappropriate films to joke about, terrible opening sequence, repeated jokes from Scary Movie 3

The beginning of the fourth edition to the scary movie series is quite stupid; it's an imitation of the film Saw involving both Shaq and Dr. Phil...clearly it has its issues. It was in this awful beginning that I realized how awful this film would be. I ...

Pros: Pretty funny, very entertaining, better if you have seen the movies it spoofs.
Cons: Jokes get annoying, it is not a good movie by any means.

Scary Movie 4 By: Jesse Bravo Directed by: David Zucker (The Naked Gun series, BASEketball, Scary Movie 3) Written by: Craig Mazin & Jim Abrahams Scary Movie 4, like its predecessors is a parody movie, which makes fun of a number of recent ...
