"What's you're favourite Scary Movie?" Certainly not this one: Thoughts on: Scream 4

Just a few things that pissed me off about ghost-face's 11-year's-in-the-making 4th stabbing:

Number 1: Douey is the worst cop EVER

How on earth did he ever get promoted to sheriff? All he does is drive around Woodboro, constantly missing out on all the killings; arriving at the scene of the murders ten minutes too late, running his fingers through his sweaty hair. Scary Movies "Dufus" comes to mind more than once, most prominantly when Douey is beaten - nearly to death - with a bedpan. Although that is hilarious.

Number 2: Syd - Will You Ever Learn?

  Sydney. We're four movies in now. Everybody in your life has died and you've lived on, scarred, in turmoil; the witness, "The angel of death." You've watched tradgedies most fictional characters cannot even imagine. Would it really have hurt to have taken some self-defence classes? Usually ghost-face turns out to be some moronic twat or a dumb teenager with Daddy issues, surely if you learnt a few moves you could take him - your a big girl now. E.G: "Lesson number one: If a creep comes at you with a butcher's knife raised above his head, kick that bastard right in the family jewels, then toss him down the staircase."
  Personally, If I were Syd, I would have gotton myself a gun licence - say round Scream 2 time - and blown ghost face to Tim-buc-fucking-too before he even had time to hang up his shiny-new I-Phone.

Number 3: Woodsboro Teenagers Are Completely Retarded

  "There's some dude in a mask killing people around about our age, lets totally have a party in an abandoned barn where no one will find us, especially police."

AMATUERS

SO to sum up, Scream 4, though enjoyable, is without a doubt one of the most idiotic films I have seen for quite some time. It's not bad, it's not great. It's OK. You will get a good few laughs here-and-there, but theres no real point to this sequel. The eventual motif behind this batch of Woodsboro killings feels like a last minute brainwave from one of the writers; it is a very lame reason to go on a killing spree (cough - FAME - he-hem). I would not advise you to not see Scream 4 because if, like me, you just fancied a laugh with a few of you're mates then you will not be disappointed. However, fans of the great original Scream and such other classic horrors will find themselves much like David Arquette's hapless Douey, forever lagging behind the films events, confused and frustrated at yet another round of pointless Woodsboro stabbings.

Just Avoid thoses bedpans.
