Scream

I kept comparing it to the first movie and I actually had a lot of fun. Even the campy moments I laughed so loud.

omg that's really a good sequel, i loved it

this is such a fun movie and was such a good way to bring back the franchise. melissa barrera is amazing, i adored mikey madison so so much, dylan minnette is always a favorite of mine as is jack quaid. its a fun way back to the genre and still plays so well on tropes. sometimes a little heavy handed, but thats typical of the series. losing dewey was emotional but im glad they took the risk to take out a legacy character.

i enjoy every moment in this movie ! Love it !

The movie is surprisedly good, I really like how it is a reboot and not a reboot at the same time. The way they connected it with the last movies was amazing.

The funniest:
What, I wanna be prepared 😂 😂 😂

The saddest:
It is an honor 😢😢😢

how the hell did they make this so good? i was expecting a shit show but damn.

I remember renting with my older brother "Scream" When I was 7 because my parents not really controlled what I watch. The movie had just come out, and It was a smashing hit. Everybody was talking about it.

I obviously couldn't get mos of the movie, but I was really impressed. Jason and Freddie were not that of a thing in the late 90s and seeing ghost face really made a mark on me. I got a ghost face costume for carnival that year (we dress up in that time of year in Brazil) with a slip-in- blade plastic knife. My friends And I would play hide-and-seek with one of us dressed up as Ghost face, and you should stab when finding someone. It was kinda twisted looking back, but we're kids, we had no clue.

The point being, I've been watching this franchise since my early years, and have revisited this movies several times during my life, watched most of them in the theaters after the first one and followed all the Wes Craven movies because of this franchise.

Coming back to this movie, I was not expecting much since it was not Wes critique of scary movies as it was before, but other people looking into his work and creating a "requel" as they call it. I'm happy to say I've screamed, jumped, laughed and clapped during this movie and was really happy with the final result. I even allowed a second of tears for a beloved character who saw an end in this movie, And I'm glad to say that in an era of reboots, unnecessary sequels - I'm talking to you Matrix 4 - this one is a fresh script and great addition to the source material.

"It's always someone you know"

Scream is a genre in itself. Without a doubt, over four decades it has established itself as one of the freshest franchises within the horror genre. Despite being a typical slasher movie, it just uses its typicality as an attribute and tells us everything that is going to happen before it happens, but always leaving an unexpected element to provoke a feeling of satisfaction in the viewer. As they did not tire of repeating within the film, Scream (2022) is a "requel" that meets each of the type's conventions. Without a doubt, the original cast was a success and has been demonstrated in all the films. Neve Campbell is THE undoubted protagonist of the entire saga and continues to be so in this latest film, and together with Courtney Cox and David Arquette they make up the trio that appeals to the nostalgia that, according to the film itself, every requel needs. However, the weak point is in the new faces, neither Jenna Ortega nor Melissa Barrera have enough charm and strength to sustain the story and I can't imagine a continuation in which they are now the protagonists. Without a doubt, the saga must end here. Special mention for the tribute to Wes Craven that is moving and quite appropriate, both within the film and in the end credits.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Scream’:

1. The word “shook” was created solely to describe the way I felt when [spoiler]Billy Loomis[/spoiler] showed up.

2. In this moment, I have zero desire to watch another trailer again. It definitely didn’t _ruin_ the movie, but it absolutely annihilated some stellar reaction potential — especially with character deaths and the incredible reveal of which house they were actually partying in.

3. All-in-all, I loved it! It’s a _Scream_ movie through and through. Fan candy galore. But when I first walked out, I was wading in waters of disappointment. Because I wanted more Sidney. More Gale. I didn’t want a new lead character being the badass with attempts at iconic one-liners. BUT… then appreciation sunk in. The appreciation that the spotlight _needs_ to shift. That franchises are destroyed by milking characters for whatever they’re worth. And, the truth is, this has probably been the best supporting cast since the original. Seeing our surviving legacy cast finally move on is _the_ best way to honor them.

Bonus Thought: There’s one word in this film that I absolutely LIVED for… [spoiler]“Trap.”[/spoiler]

Not a sequel, not a reboot, but a wonderful tribute to the franchise that we all fell in love with so many years ago.
