Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

ivo-cobra8 Scream 2 is flawless but enjoyable sequel it is not better than the first one but much way better than part 4. Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson does return for this sequel but still I enjoy the third one much way more. The second sequel was good little different mixed with action and humor, but it wasn't that scary to me. It is really a step down from the first film. I have a lot of problems with this film. The bad: The writer Kevin Williamson copied the first film why would they copy the first film? I don't get it. The film looks like the same as the first movie, first the name of the town was Windsor like in the first movie Woodsboro: Then the victims were killed whit the same names and surnames the same emo from the first killer. Than was a copy killer on the loose and than they were like two killers just one wants to get away, the other wants to get caught. Deputy Sheriff David Arquette as Dewey Riley did do nothing in this movie and he was useless in this film! He was complaining, yelling and did do nothing, he was slashed but yet again he survived, how did he survive? or why is he in this movie is yet beyond me. Kevin Williamson wrote his character dull and awful. Marco Beltrami copied and stole the theme music score from Hans Zimmer music score for Broken Arrow (1996) John Woo film. The humor I didn't like in here and I didn't like they were talking about Stab fictional movie in this film that was based on Scream film. Jada Pinkett Smith was in the beginning in this film and she was terrible. Most of the characters in this film are awful. The good: I love the ghostface killer in this movie and he doesn't use so much scary movies questions like in the first movie, he simply kills fast his victims. I love Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott she was lovely, such a sole survivor, such a bad-ass even more sexy than in the first film. Her ass was sexy, man o man she was hot! I fall in love with her, I did enjoy her performance as Sidney. I enjoy Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers this time she had a different hair cut but she was still good in her performance as a nosy tabloid reporter. The most hero I enjoy in this movie is Liev Schreiber as Cotton Weary he is awesome!!! A true real hero he is excellent! I really did enjoy the plot twist and his character. Sarah Michelle Gellar as Casey "Cici" Cooper is in here she is really good and Timothy Olyphant as Mickey from Live Free or Die Hard is in here! The cast work really well. 8/10 It is a good slasher horror movie and a good sequel to the first one I still watch this films, I like this film and the trilogy. I like the song "She Said by Collective Soul excellent song. My third favorite film in the series but still a good one, doesn't deserve the hate.

bruingal-28746 The beginning scene at the sneak preview of "Stab" is too unreal. No ONE behaves like that inside a theater room; people running around with fake knives, throwing popcorn at the screen, and acting like it's a playground. Second, WHY would a horror film based on real murders allow masks and fake knives inside the theater ? It's common sense. I just find it too unrealistic and cheesy. You don't put people in danger by handing out killer's masks, making it way too easy for actual murders and/or dangerous activity to take place. Don't get me wrong, I love Wes Craven and re-watching 90s flicks, but the only thing making this film tolerable is Gale's character and Deputy Dewy.

NileFortnerBoogieBuddha954 "Someone is out to make a sequel. To cash in on all the movie murder. Let's observe the rules of a sequel. Number one, body count is always bigger. Number two, death scenes are more elaborate, more blood, gore, and carnage candy." This is the follow up to one of the most original horror films Scream. Many people believe that Scream 2 is better than the first. On the other hand, I believe that this is a great sequel, but I didn't enjoy it as much as the first.In this film, history repeats itself. After the events in Scream, they decided to make a movie within a movie called Stab. Someone is trying to act out the killings in stab. A copycat killer is on the loose!Even though I had fun with this film, I just thought the original had more to say about the story structure of horror films. Also, I'm starting to like the prologue of these films killing off high profile actresses. In the first film, I thought it was just a publicity stunt. But know, I find them kind of funny.So these are my final Bitchin' Buddha thoughts on Scream 2. I enjoyed it, just not as much as the first film. The film is still good, delivers great performances, diabolical, and thrilling. I believe Scream 2 earns a..8/10!This review is brought to you by Boogie Buddha, and remember, don't just get down, but get Boogie. Thanks for reading/viewing, and I hope you all have an amazing day as always. :)

Python Hyena Scream 2 (1997): Dir: Wes Craven / Cast: Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, David Arquette, Jamie Kennedy, Sarah Michelle Gellar: Nowhere near as interesting as Scream. It is basically the standard horror sequel with a conclusion presented upon the most moronic intelligence. Two college students are murdered at the premier of "Stab", which is based on the murders of the first movie. Routine hack and slash concealing the killer's identity. Jamie Kennedy pauses to deliver the rules of sequels. "There is a much bigger body count," he confides. Anyone who has had the misfortune of sitting through Friday the 13th, Part 5: A New Beginning or Sleepaway Camp 3: Teenage Wasteland will know that this isn't necessarily a good thing. Director Wes Craven is great at making everyone look guilty but he is actually making the same film. Neve Campbell returns as Sydney who is now in college and pretty much runs the same drill as before including a shocking revelation in the end. Courtney Cox returns as reporter Gale Weathers who gets punched in the face by Sidney again. David Arquette returns as officer Riley who gets injured again. Kennedy spells out the rules of sequels before making a quick exit. Sarah Michelle Gellar makes a wasted appearance after being in the superior I Know What You Did Last Summer. The purpose is to examine horror sequel reputations , which present a higher body count in graphic detail. Score: 3 / 10
