Let's be realistic.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

I can't believe people think this is funny. It not funny. It is worst then Scary movie 2 and that was awful. It worst then Scary movie 3 and that was awful. Most of the time I think it is lame to c.r.i.t.i.c.i.s.e.s a movie for being to scary. But this had a nude scene with Leslie Nielsen. That is to scary. And just think It was never funny just gross and stupid. Kind of sick at time. I don't mind that they made fun horror movies. I have seen most of the movies they made fun of. Liked most of them. They probably liked all of them. They did not insult our put down the movies they made fun of. They were just not funny. Even the bad horror movies they made fun of were better.

Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris) is jobless and has sent her kid to military school. She takes a job taking care of Mrs. Norris (Cloris Leachman) living in a haunted house. Tom Ryan (Craig Bierko) is the next door neighbor who is spending the weekend with his two kids. Then the War of the Worlds happen. Incompetent President Harris (Leslie Nielsen) tries to organize the defense. Cindy reunites with Brenda Meeks (Regina Hall) who survives a plane crash.The early departure of Charlie Sheen really saps the energy from this one. Basically I watch this hoping against any hope that Charlie would come back. David Zucker is back to mash together a string of random movie spoofs. I don't understand the addition of Tom Ryan as the new main character if he doesn't spend the entire movie with Cindy. Anna Faris is still funny playing dumb. The rest is just too random and too scattered without being actually funny. The bloopers are way funnier with Anthony Anderson trying to kiss Kevin Hart.

I don't know why I bothered watching this, because I knew I wouldn't like it. I didn't like any of the previous movies, but because I've seen all the kinds of films being spoofed, I kind of ended up watching it anyway. Sadly, SCARY MOVIE 4 only raised a few chuckles during its running time, although it's still a slight improvement over the exceptionally stupid first and second films in this series.There aren't so many films being spoofed this time around; the format instead picks about four or five major ones and kind of links them all together with a would-be storyline. So we get an opening sequence based on SAW (the best bit, actually), then follow-ups involving spins on THE GRUDGE (which I found a bit racist), THE VILLAGE, and WAR OF THE WORLDS.Sadly, the terrible Anna Faris is STILL finding work (and as awful as ever, dragging every moment she appears in down), but some of the supporting actors fare better. It's particularly fine to see Leslie Nielsen, still on top form playing the US president and providing most of the (few) laughs along the way.

This last part of the series is a good ending even though this flick is not as strong as the third part that surprised with a great acting and many original ideas. I must also admit that some of the movies that are parodied in here are not amongst my favourite ones as it was rather the case in the third part as I didn't like at all "War of the worlds" and "The village" that I found somewhat boring and too ambitious so that I couldn't even laugh about seeing them parodied and accorded further attention. In here, the ideas are a little bit less unique but the jokes are still over the top, especially as Leslie Nielsen plays once again the role of a very dumb and funny president of the United States of America and he alone is worth watching this flick as he adds once again something mature and unique to the series. Especially the jokes about Brokeback Mountain, Million Dollar Baby and Saw are still hilarious.Even though those series were finally rather childish with a very bad first part, an acceptable and entertaining second and fourth part and a really good third part, I would like to see a true fifth part in the future as there have been many movies in the past years that should be parodied by this sympathetic crew.
