Summary: The best Trilogies come in Three's
Review: In a suprising move, the third installment in the franchise shed the R-Rating, foregoing the obscene nudity and replacing perepetual perversion with a multitude of inuendos. What results is a hilarious ride that parodies all the movies you know you love. The crazy story follows a newscaster who believes that a videotape has a connection to aliens who've been making crop circles in the cornfield of a local farmer, whose brother is trying to win a local rap contest. The movie is hilarious, and its possible to sit through it and not be grossed out like the first two. With an ensemble cast that includes Charlie Sheen, Anna Faris, and cameos by Pamela Anderson, Queen Latifah, Ja Rule, Jenny McCarthy, Leslie Nielson, and many more.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Diffrent from the first two
Review: This movie is as funny as parts of the other 2 at times but i wouldnt say its as good. It has some funny moments but also some very stupid non funny moments. The other 2 movies were pretty funny throughout the whole movie and this one has hits and misses. There were parts i was laughing till i almost cried and other parts that were not funny at all. This one has more parodys of sci fi movies mainly and 8 mile. The last 2 focused more on horror. Here they parody the movie signs , the ring and 8 mile. The last 2 films had more movie parodys of all diffrent horror films and this film has popular culture parodys and sci fi. If your a fan of the first two , get this one to complete the trilogy and if you havnt seen the others or just thought they were so so rent this. Youll get a couple good laughs. Also i dont agree with the reviews that say the only funny parts are in the movie commercials they showed. All the funny parts i saw were not in the commercials and the one from the commercial ( the Micheal Jackson part) wasnt that funny and that wasnt really Micheal Jackson, it was a micheal jackson imitator. Overall i give it 3 and a half stars. Pretty good.

Summary: Stupidest movie ever made
Review: The wayans Bros was not in this movie like the last two. This was thrown together and did not make sense. Was 8 mile supposed to be scary??? Dont waste your time and money buying this movie just watch it over a friends house and let them waste their money. Go see white chicks with the Wayans Brothers if you want a laugh.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not worth watching.
Review: I'm a person with a sense of humor. I like comedy, funny movies and pranks. I also joke around alot. I didn't find Scary Movie 3 really funny or enjoyable though. There are parodies of horror movies such as the 'Ring' here, and even non horror movies such as '8 Mile'. The plot seems barely there, just thrown together. Its unrealistic, but thats not a problem(its a movie for crying out loud). The only remotely funny part was probably the Michael Jackson scene, or some of the 8 Mile spoof(kind of). If you're a complete moron, you might this this is a hilarious movie. You'll be rolling on the ground laughing! If you have at least an I.Q. over 5 though, you're bound to hate it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not terrible, but these sequels are getting tired.
Review: This second sequel to the enjoyable Scary Movie film has its moments but ultimately runs out of steam prematurely and seems too long, despite a relatively short running time.
The film attempts to spoof films as diverse as 8 Mile, Signs, The Ring and The Sixth Sense. The laugh factor is kept at the slapstick, lowbrow style showcased by films like The Naked Gun and Hot Shots!
The funniest part of this film is the intro, with Pamela Anderson and Jenny Mccarthy dressed in schoolgirl uniforms recreating the beginning of The Ring. Though the film starts on a high note, it quickly falters after this with most of the jokes falling flat as the Signs inspired alien invasion scenario unfolds. Without a doubt, this is much better than the first sequel but nowhere near as good as the first film which benefitted greatly from a great cast sorely lacking here. Many of the actors here appear disinterested in their material and seem to just be going through the motions. Leslie Nielsen does provide a hilarious cameo as the president of the United States.
This film will probably appeal to pre-teens and high school students who usually love this style of gross out humour. The DVD is pretty nice though with enough extras to appeal to hardcore fans of this series. Casual fans will want to rent and watch once, as there is really nothing here to merit a second viewing.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: it was ok, it's just kind of crazy
Review: i think the movie was ok. i didn't see it at the theater but i bought it and the only parts i liked were when the guy told the girl her teacher was dead, when the teacher was at her house with her friend cindi and she was playing with her acting like she was dieing and when she said in that creepy voice"you're gonna die in seven days", andi like when the girl came out the tv and she was like "Cindi this bitch is messing up my floor", and i like when she said " Cindi i'm whipping her ass". and i like when she was on the couch eating that popcorn, it was so funny.and i like at the funeral when all that stuff happened.

Summary: Too Horrible for Words!
Review: Seriously, this is the crappiest excuse for a comedy I've seen since American Pie 3! I should have known it was going to be recycled formulaic one-liners and forced situations when I heard that the Wayans Brothers were going to be replaced by the makers of the Naked Gun movies. The humor, if you can call it that, is the exact same as you've seen in countless slapstick movies from the 70's and 80's, but this time they unsuccessfully try to bring it to the youth culture. The result is unfunny parodies of the Matrix, 8 Mile, Signs, and so forth that are loosely weaved together by a poor attempt at an ongoing plot. This abysmal excuse for a comedy clocks in at only 80 minutes (which should let you know just how much time the makers invested in it) but it felt like it would never end! Trust me, avoid this movie at all costs, even if it means reading a book!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Pretty Lame rehashing of old ideas
Review: Having two teenage daughters has increased my exposure to these modern spoof comedys that are often based on cheap laughs and vulgarity, aimed squarely at the 14-19 demographic. This third installment however is pretty bad, and actually not very funny. I'm all for a few laughs and poking fun at the horror movie genre, but since when were 8 Mile and the Matrix Trilogy horror movies??? A good cast cannot unfortunately save a lame script, and suprisingly bad direction from Mr Zucker et al, whose other films in the past have been much funnier, and much more watchable. Leslie Nielsen has a cameo as the President and Charlie Sheen plays Mel Gibson's character from the "Signs" movie, but even their comic pedigree are wasted, which is a shame. Old ideas and jokes are run through the mill to try and get some cheap laughs, and I get the feeling that even the younger generation are getting tired of sexual innuendo, and corny sight gags when they aren't supported by a reasonable story as is the case here. The DVD "extra's" are actually worth watching however from the point of view of the deleted scenes and alternate ending, which accurately show that this movie could have been EVEN worse (as unlikely as that is). One can only hope that this will be the last installment in the series. Avoid!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What a wasted
Review: With the Waynes Brothers stepping aside, David Zucker sat in the director's chair to take a shot at the thrid movie.

And missed horribly.

With so much talent and no real story the 3 movie fall flat on it's face with no real direction, only a constant stream of jokes, not many of them are that funny.

With attempts to Spoof 8 mile, Matrix Reloaded, the Ring, and Signs did not pan out at all. The connection with the tape in the Ring and the monsters in Signs just didn't connect.

Unlike the pervious movies that were rated R, the studio wussed out and made it a hard PG-13. This is a movie that is meant to be R

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bad Comedy from Over-The-Hill Filmmakers
Review: Isn't the point of a comedy film to make you laugh? I didn't laugh once. A couple of old, white, male filmmakers (yes, the Wayans LEFT) try to parody pop culture and it just comes out sad and painful.

Pat Proft (co-writer/head-writer) hasn't written a funny movie since the mid '80s, and David Zucker (director) hasn't directed a funny movie since Naked Gun 2.5 in 1991. Why Dimension would take these two hacks and hand them a profitable franchise is beyond me, especially after the raft of pitifully UNfunny movies they've made in the last 10+ years. This film sucks so hard, you'd think it had a collapsed star at the center (i.e. a black hole)... though Charlie Sheen could qualify for that description.

Someone stop these hacks before they make another NOT FUNNY comedy.
