Scream 2

 

 

 

 Starring: Neve Campbell

 Directed by: Wes Craven

 Rated R

 Genre: Horror

 Synopsis: Set two years after Scream, Sidney is now in college and starting life over, when copycat killings begin to happen again.

 My Thoughts: Like most sequels, they rarely live up to the first, this suffered from the sequel syndrome too. It was still pretty good, but there is no way it lived up to the first movie.

  Scorecard

     Acting- The acting was about par in this movie. No one went out of their way to give a great performance, but the acting was still okay. David Arquette gave the best performance of this movie (yes, you heard me right) and that may be saying something. (1/2)

    Direction- Sequel syndrome strikes again. The direction of this film was just average, it seemed to want to go one place, then flipped and flopped a few times before deciding where to end up. It took away from the movie. (1/2)

     Story- To be honest, I think this movie was written better than the original. With already established characters, they really didn't need to spend time on developing them, so they really got right to the fun of the story. With copycat killer(s) it is always a little more fun, to see how much further they will go than the original, these killers didn't go as far as the first movie, but it was still good to see. (1)

    Expectations- This movie lived up to the hype of the first movie I suppose. While not quite as good as the first, it was still a pretty fun movie to watch in itself. (1/2)

    Boring?- Not at all. This movie flowed very well, with very few down times, and there was just enough horror action to keep you wanting more, and they delivered. (1)

   Final Score: 3 1/2 out of 5

 Final Thoughts: This movie was fun to watch, and was almost as good as the first movie. Few sequels live up to the original movie, while this movie did not quite do it... it was certainly close. Don't see this movie without seeing the first one, you will get confused.
