Summary: Better than Scary Movie 2 but that isn't saying much...
Review: Scary Movie 3 works well over the disappointing Scary Movie 2 in many ways. A different cast of characters for the most part and better movie spoofs. But saying Scary Movie 3 is better isn't all that special since Scary Movie 2 was one of the worst movies I ever saw.

Scary Movie 3 is great humor at first. This one spoofs "The Ring", "Signs", "The Matrix", "The Others" and "8 Mile". Its funny really but only the first time around. The second time you get a chuckle and the third time you probably won't care for some parts.

The movie begins with a rather clever spoof of "The Ring", letting you know what the main spoof of the movie is. The movie then goes off into Cindy (yes the same Cindy from the previous two films). She finds this mysterious tape and watches it and learns that she'll die in seven days. Not unusual for anyone who's seen "The Ring".

The film also focuses on a Pasture that's lost his faith since his wife died in a car accident of a friend who fell asleep behind the wheel (clearly from "Signs"). The crops circles and aliens are there as well.

The THIRD and final focus is on a young boy who wants to be a rapper and hopes to make it in the movie business someday (clearly 8 Mile).

The humor in the film can be to die for. Not so much language and drugs in every scene but as far as sexual humor goes, this film STILL has a lot of that, in case you're wondering. It says "PG-13" but if you've got younger kids keep them FAR FAR AWAY from this movie as a lot of the kiddies will be asking questions to the sexual jokes they don't (and more than likely won't) understand.

But as I said, watching the movie again and again shows that you'll quickly forget it. The humor is nice but a lot of it is incredibly stupid! This is a movie that you go to only for the laughs and nothing more. If you were expecting a CLEVER spoof then you came to the wrong movie.

The DVD offers an alternate ending and if you watch it you'll learn just WHY it wasn't used. The alternate ending is shown to you unedited but it really isn't funny. After a while you stop laughing because it becomes too much and is clearly too stupid.

Overall, the average comedy lover might go for this movie but for someone looking for a smart humor film stay far away.

Summary: I see a ring! ... wait... wait... it's a big, fat zero!
Review: Well, not exactly a zero. I admit, the crude, and often, sexual, humor of the Wayan Brothers always brings a laugh out of me. But unfortunately for the third movie of the "Scary Movie" series, this one is by far, the worst. As with most movies and series, the quality just keeps going down... and "Scary Movie 3" is not an exception.

"Scary Movie 3" uses "The Ring" and "Signs" as the main themes of the third installment. The beginning of the movie is exactly like the beginning of "The Ring" with Pamela Lee Anderson and Jenny McCarthy. It was pretty hilarious to watch, as also what the Scary Movies do is point out questionable and often, stupid, aspects of the movies that they are portraying.

Charlie Sheen and Simon Rex are two of the main characters in this movie, with the theme of "Signs". Sheen is an ex-priest living on a farm with his wanna-be rapper brother, Rex. Faris returns as the leading character in the film, as a news reporter. She represents Naomi Watts' character in "The Ring" who is a newspaper reporter trying to find out about the mystery of the videotape. Regina Hall also re-appears as Faris' good friend, who is now a teacher. There are cameos by Queen Latifah, George Carlin, Eddie Griffin, Denise Richards, and Leslie Nielson (Gun 1 1/2), are some of the actors/actresses that appear in the movie.

With ideas from "The Sixth Sense", Faris' nephew has an extrasensory sense that gives him the ability to see and know things that other people do not. Also, there is a part of the movie that uses "The Others". Rex's character portrays Eminem in "8 Mile", with a MC battle scene. It also uses ideas from "The Matrix Reloaded", with Queen Latifah as the Oracle and Eddie Griffin as Morpheus.

Faris' character begins investigating the mystery of the crop circles that appear in Sheen's field, and she discovers a mysterious tape that "kills" people. The story unfolds, character's stories are told, and aliens land on earth...

The movie had its funny parts, but most of it was corny and typical as they come, much like stale popcorn you get at the theatre. Most of the crude, sexual humor that made "Scary Movie" so popular is not there as much and neither is the signature "release" scene, which I was looking forward to but got disappointed when I found out there was no such scene in this one.

My advice would have been to keep it the crude, sexual humor that made the two predecessors so popular, and keep away from the corniness. Keenan Ivory Wayans apparently rushed the filming of this movie, wanting to complete it as soon as possible. It shows, very strongly, in the movie. Instead of making it even funnier, all they added was more cameos or eye candy, to keep the audience entertained. I'm sorry, but I did not take it.

I didn't bother to watch any extras but the alternate ending. It was a good thing that they didn't use this as the real ending, it was twice as corny. Rex turns into the Hulk, and Faris goes into the Matrix...

For any Scary Movie fans, it's something to watch, it's entertaining enough. But if you haven't watched any Scary Movies yet, I would recommend watching the movie in order. It also helps to make sense between the first and second one. I also noticed that there is no connection between the first two movies and the third one, except the return of Faris's and Hall's characters.

Summary: The Stupidest Movie of ALL TIME!!!!!
Review: The Scary Movie Trilogy had only two funny sequels.But this one is a big,lousy miss...I just really don't understand why a good movie goes from funny to unfunny at the same time.
So,skip Scary Movie 3 and watch the first two instead.

Summary: Scary Movie 3
Review: Although this is really not saying much, Scary movie 3 is the best in the series. Its two predecessors were not funny at all, and often times just downright gross. Scary Movie 3 tones down the grossness enough so that it is actually funny and not just disgusting. And my recommendation is that you watch some of the movies this one is making fun of, as it makes it much more enjoyable to watch.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Funny stuff!
Review: FUNNY! FUNNY! FUNNY!

If you like lewd comedy, pick this one up. Lots of cameos skits that make this one worth the time. I loved the movie spoofs because some of the movies they cracked on were a bit ridiculous. Making fun of them was funny stuff.

For those who like to be grossed out, get ready!

One thing though. There are quite a few low blows. When you see the film, you'll get the point.

One last thing. You've gotta watch the deleted scenes. I think they should have left most of them in; especially the Matrix spoof.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Funny but not the same sick humor as the other 2 but funnny,
Review: I bought scary movie 3 the day it came out and it was good. I thought it was funny, but it was not the same sick humor as the first 2, but it was still funny. So see it. Anna Faris, Jenny Mcarthy, and Pamela Anderson are all hot.


Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Though not a masterpiece, a movie worth watching!
Review: Scary Movie 3, following in the footsteps of its predecessors, is a parody of several films; Signs, 8 Mile, The Ring, even Matrix.
Though not a masterpiece, it is a funny movie, guaranteed to provide more than a just a few laughs. The casting is very good (especially Jennifer McCarthy and Pamela Anderson in the opening scene!!!), and the story is very well written.
Overall, it is a movie definitely worth watching, and even though quite silly at times, it will surely put you in a good mood!


Rating: 5 stars
Summary: you're gonna need an extra pair of underwear for this one!!
Review: I watched it last year and I liked it. But I thought it was gonna be HILARIOUS. The differences are that this one has weaker crude humor and it makes it not that funny after all. But I liked it. I think it has clever moments and it is funny overall. But I think the second SCARY MOVIE is the best of the trilogy. If you like light crude humor. Watch this one. But if you'd like a little bit of stronger crude and gross humor, then watch SCARY M0VIE 2.

Rating: 2 stars
