Rating: Summary: Not for the PC Review: I am an obsessive fan of the horror genre as a whole, but I avoided this movie when it was released because I had recently seen the MTV movie awards hosted by the Wayans brothers. Needless to say, I thought all of their jokes on the awards show failed miserably and I couldn't imagine a movie by the same lame guys being anything more than an over-rated and unfunny flop (take the SNL related movies "It's Pat" and "Stuart Saves His Family" for example) After seeing some of the trailers for the newly released Scary Movie 2, I decided to give in and rent the first one. It is hands down the funniest movie I have seen since SOUTH PARK. I know that wasn't exactly popular with the critics either, but I loved it. To give you a point of reference, I like a range of different styles such as low brow (Billy Madison, Slapshot, American Pie, Happy Gilmore, Austin Powers 2 etc..) classic british stuff (Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Life of Brian, This Is Spinal Tap etc..) 80's teen comedy (Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Breakfast Club, Better Off Dead etc..) Coen Brothers (Raising Arizona, The Big Lebowski, O Brother Where Art Thou? etc..) and black comedies (American Psycho, Heathers, Whiteboyz, etc..) If you liked any of the previously mentioned movies (save "pat" and "stuart") then there's no reason you shouldn't like this one. My favorite part is Doofy. Oh.. and about SCARY MOVIE 2, avoid it like the plague. It's as bad as I initially thought this movie would be.
Rating: Summary: Great but too much male nudity!! Review: This was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen, laughed my ass off in the theatre just like everyone else. It was really nasty, probably more so than most of the other movies I've seen, which I don't really mind except there was too much male nudity. If they have to put that stuff in the movie they could at least put a little from the other side to balance it out. Anyway, this is a hilarious spoof on Scream and other horror movies and is really fun to watch so buy or rent it today, and see Scary Movie 2 its also hilarious!
Rating: Summary: FANTASTIC Review: What a film has to be one of the funniest films i have ever seen.From start to finish it just makes you laugh.I don't how this film has been critisced in my view its the best film of the year Brilliant stuff
Rating: Summary: Possibly the funnies move EVER Review: If you don't laught at least 100 times while watching this movie, then you need to see a doctor. I thought I was going to have a heart attack.Spoofs of Scream, Matrix and many other horrors are included in the movies main theme, which is really an insane remake of Scream. You need to have a sort of sick sense of humor, like me, to really enjoy it. A lot of people getting hit by cars, stabbed multiple times, and so on. Only the Wayne brothers could make vicious murder hillarious. If you haven't seen this movie yet, you have never really laughed before in your life. The movie actually manages to become a good mystery. I don't think anyone will guess who the killer is until the end. While the movie is funny, dumb, insane, and crazy, the Wayne's actually managed to pull off keeping the killer a secret. I CANNOT WAIT to see the sequel!
Rating: Summary: As bad as American Pie, and that's saying something Review: Scary Movie (Keenen Ivory Wayans, 1999) The tagline to this movie promised "no sequel." Would that it had been accurate. Maybe I'm just getting too old for this (but then, come to think of it, I had no pateince for mindlessness when I was a teen, either), but I found Scary Movie about as funny as American Pie-- a whole lot of jokes that missed the mark, and those few that found it just didn't appeal to my sense of humor. Besides, why parody a genre of films that's already so mired in self-parody? (zero)
Rating: Summary: This film rocks! Review: Scary Movie is hilarious!It is a parody of teen age horror movies like the "Scream" movies and "I Know What You Did Last Summer" as well as many others.The reason I proabably liked this so much is because I hate the "Scream" movies so much.It .Anyone who enjoys parodies and gross out humor will love it.
Rating: Summary: Awful Awful Awful Review: Many of the "funny" scenes in this movie were not funny at all. It seems like the jokes you would make as a child in elementary school.
Rating: Summary: This is whats wrong with society Review: I am a big fan of alot of genres including stupid comedies like biodome,Bill and ted, airplane, and son in law. But while I can take and even enjoy a mild amount of sick jokes, this crossed the line by about 50 miles. The saddest thing was that this was a hit. There were a few chuckles and one huge laugh,the wazzup scene, but otherwise it was just people making fun of small penises, penisis caught in thongs, and more penises. If you want a horror parody go see "Shreik if you know what I did last friday the 13th".How this was not rated x I will never know. If this is where societies headed the human race should not survive.JUST SAY NO!!!!
Rating: Summary: SCARY MOVIE Review: SCARY MOVIE is a halarious spoof on all the teenage slasher movies that have come out in the past years. The plot of this film is simple: a group of high school teenagers (who look like they are played by actors who are in there late 20's and early 30's) are being stalked and killed in stupid ways by a ghost-masked killer who likes to drink, smoke pot, and rap. This film makes fun of movies like "Scream," "I Know What You Did Last Summer," "Halloween," and various other films, as well as TV shows and commercials. There are plenty of sex jokes, fart jokes, and drug jokes. There is also a surprising amount of male nudity in this movie, but you can't take it seriously...I mean after all this is a spoof we're talking about here. This film was written by Shawn & Marlon Wayans and directed by Kennen Ivory Wayans (The Wayans Brothers).
Rating: Summary: Disgustipating Review: I am so embarrassed to say that I saw this movie. While I admit that there were some funny scenes, overall it was an overly disgusting gross-out. Worse than any other I've ever seen. Actually, this movie turned me off of gross-out comedies forever. Maybe my IQ isn't low enough to find cruel jokes aimed at gays and the mentally disabled funny. As a 19 year old female I found it to be quite demeaning towards women, but what should I have really expected? As for the people who happily comsume this inane drivel, keep it. I used to love to read, maybe now's a good time to get back to that. Bottom line: avoid, avoid, AVOID!
