Summary: A Hilarious Spoof, Very Funny!
Review: A very funny spoof, even though it is not in the same league as 'Airplane' or 'The Naked Gun' it still has plenty of laughs. An inventive spoof of teen horror flicks such as 'Scream' and 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' and blockbusters like 'The Matrix', 'The Usual Suspects' and 'Blair Witch Project'. A very funny cast of which the Wayans Bros. stand out and Carmen Electra is surprisingly good as she vamps it up in the beginning sequence. Filled with lots of bathroom humor and jokes about drugs and sex. All that and three cameos by a playful penis make you wonder hoe the film got rated 'R' in the first place. Less lively and a whole lot darker and nastier than most other spoofs but still delivers some heavy laughs. Creative direction by Keenan Ivory Wayans. Some of the jokes fall flat and a lot of the jokes may insult many viewers which make this film definitely not for the squeamish. Wayans approach to comedy is forceful and aggressive but one can't help but laugh. From a scale of 1-10 I give this film a 6!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Some funny scenes, but basically a funny porn movie.
Review: This movie covers all the bases in shocking people...sex, drugs, gore, male nudity...you name it. However shock doesn't mean laughter. I found myself cringing through out alot of the movie. There was some laughs, but the movie beat the jokes to death. You would laugh first and then uggh! This movie is not for for kids, or adults for that matter. It's pretty much a universal teen movie. So be warned!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Slashing the slasher genre!
Review: Yeah, the Scream Trilogy and I Know What You Did Last Summer have had their spots in the box office hall of fame. Their creators and Dimension films have made their millions. This could only mean one thing: Time to mock it to no end!

Let's get down to business: This movie was hillarious! Lousy casting (except for Wayans who plays a terrific pothead) but bad actors are the key to a good parody. The plot... well, who cares about plot, that's the reason this movie was created: Because slasher films have no plot! There's only one thing left to judge: The humor value.

Well, it's rude, vulgar, obscene, and keeps you guessing how "far" the movie can really take the R rating without hitting NC-17. One way or another, I was just about on the floor for the entire movie. Naked Gun, Hot Shots Part Deux, and now Scary Movie. As reluctant as I am, I have to rank this as one of the funniest movies I have ever seen.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Satirical and immature... overall, a great comedy
Review: If you're someone who loves the satire genre and doesn't mind a venture into the immature, this movie is right up your alley. It takes a nice blend of recent horror flicks and exploits every nook and cranny of them for a cheap laugh. While the plot itself was somewhat twisted (people who didn't see Scream may have no idea what the plot is) it was worth following just to see the antics around every corner. I was looking forward to buying it on the way out of the theater. Definitely one to give at least a fair chance no matter what your take on recent horror films is.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty funny.
Review: This movie is totally along the lines of DON'T BE A MENACE TO SOUTH CENTRAL WHILE DRINKING YOUR JUICE IN THE HOOD. It has the same director (Keenan Ivory Wayans) and the same actors (Shawn and Marlon Wayans). It's also got about the same level of intellect :) While I thought they went a bit too far with some of the sex jokes, it was still a funny spoof. If you haven't seen any of the SCREAM movies or I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER, you probably won't enjoy it as much. The opening scene with Carmen Electra was great!

The jokes come fast and furious, so watch out. They're piled one on top of another. They stuffed so much stuff into this flick, I'll have to see it a few more times to catch everything: SIXTH SENSE, the "Wassuuuuuuup! " Budweiser commercials, AMERICAN PIE. It was great!

No character development, a vague plot, and tons of jokes...this is what a spoof is all about. If you don't like these kinds of movies (SPACEBALLS, LOADED WEAPON, etc.), then this movie is definitely not for you. If you like crude jokes and unsubtle comedy, this is a definite must see.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: YOU COULD "DIE" LAUGHING !
Review: Oh My God. Without A Doubt. The Funniest Movie I`ve Ever Seen In Theaters. I`ve Seen Over 20,000 Movies So I Know My Movies. This Movie Picks On: The Blair Witch Project, The Matrix, I Know/Still Know What You Did Last Summer, Scream 1 and 2, American Pie, The Sixth Sense, And More.So Make Sure That You Have Seen ALL Of Those Movies, Or You Will NOT Understand 1/2 Of The Jokes. The Jokes Are Beyond Perverted. The REAL Male "organ" Is Shown 3-4 Times. Which Is Very Unusual Even For A Rated R Movie. You Can Expect A Sequel, The Waynes Bros. Are Already Working On It. This Movie Is Drop Dead Funny. It`s The First Movie I`ve Ever Seen In A Theater 2 Times. This Is The Kind Of Movie Some Teens Wouldn`t Let Their Parents Watch. Trust Me I`m A Teen Too. ......... You`ve Gotta See It To Believe It. The Video Release Date Is December...But I Couldn`t Wait That Long. And I`m Glad That I Didn`t. And There's Even This Part....NEVERMIND, See The Movie.

Summary: I ... SAW ..... SCARY MOVIE!
Review: Hey, Scary Movie wasn't so much of a scary movie afterall. Instead, it is one helluva roller-coaster parody of the recent box-office hits like Matrix and the likes of Scream that promises to bring you a ceaseless 1 and 1/2 hour of nauseous, dizzying, raucous laughter.

Scary Movie not only spoofs hits like Sixth Sense and I Know What You Did Last Summer, it also pokes fun at racism and bimbo-hood, albeit done in the light of humor.

To really enjoy Scary Movie, you'd have to dispose yourself of all reason and rationale and laugh it all down, with some popcorn and coke of course(just make sure not to choke on it while guffawing away). The plot may be thin, but it sure is the one of the funniest movie I have ever seen. Those in hope of a really frightening premise would be sorely disappointed, though.

In all, Scary Movie is the epitome of parodies and brings sexual jokes to newer heights of enjoyment. Way to go!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A TRULY FUNNY MOVIE
Review: This movie was entertaining. It spoofed on all of the scary movies of the past 5 years and it did a great job. It wasn't a stupid comedy like we are used to. Carmen Electra was beautiful like usual, even though her character was short-lived. The Wayans perfectly fit the characters. There were so many parts that I was amazed they kept in the movie, I am glad somebody didn't try to cut them out. Too much censorship now-a-days. The movie is not a mind challeging experience, but one you can just sit back and enjoy. It runs less than two hours, which is nice. If you are a fan of comedies, aren't looking for a serious movie and aren't easily offended, you will enjoy this film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sick Comedy
Review: Wow! The Wayan's brothers have done it again. This movie was quite interesting, that is if you have seen "Scream" and "I Know What You Did Last Summer." The only objection I had towards the movie was all it did was make fun of each scene in these movies. There was no story nothing, but it was very funny. The movie also makes fun of movies such as "The Matrix", "The Sixth Sence", and "The Blair Witch Project", but not as much as "Scream" and "I Know What You Did Last Summer." The movie can get quite gross not gory gross but perverted gross, some of the actions that the charaters do are quite interesting, and that goes for the murder weapons. I think I liked this movie so much was because the previews you see on t.v. aren't the only funny parts about the movie, the movie is totally funny from the beginning until the last scene. I would defenitly reconmend this movie IF you are prepared to laugh all the way through it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilarious!
Review: I saw this movie in the movie theatre with my 18-year-old sister (I'm only 16) and 'Scary Movie' was so funny! One of my favorite parts of the movie is when Cindy and Bobby are up in the bedroom and the song "I don't Want to Wait" (by Paula Cole) is playing and then James Van der Beek pops up in the window and sees them and he's like, "Oops! Sorry, wrong set!" I just thought that part was extremely funny! 'Scary Movie' makes fun of every 'teen slasher movie there is. What I really like is how well the cast resembles to the casts of 'Scream' and 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'. If you love the 'teen slasher movies like 'Scream' and 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' then you'll really want to go see 'Scary Movie'!
