Just so...so bad
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Scary Movie 4 spoofs millions of films like 'The Grudge,War Of The Worlds,Saw,The Village as well as pop singer Michael Jackson'. The film once again follows Cindy who must go threw impossible tasks to save earth with her stupid friend Brenda. Unlike 3,this film was pretty bad. The jokes were actually brutal in this like it was literally just farts and stupid stuff that wasn't even funny. The best parody in this film was probably The Village(2004)which was a very good film and I will give this to Zucker,he did parody that film pretty well now. Anna Faris once again returned as stupid Cindy along with Regina Hall and Carmen Electra also appeared in this but not as Drew she was Holly,you know the girl from The Village who was blind,ya her. Scary Movie 4 was a disappointing installment to the hilarious franchise that's now just like every other crap spoof movie in town.
Liked this one most out of the 4! 5 when it comes out on the 12th of April!Liked how it parodied one of my favourite franchises, Saw! When Dr. Phil sawed the wrong foot off at the beginning! Along with a few laughs here & there it was a pretty good film! Not to mention the ending of Saw when the puppet's fighting each other & Brenda giving birth to Billy the Saw puppet!The final scene when Tom goes mental & starts laughing & jumping around screaming & shouting, bawling at the top of his voice! Eating the couch & going off his nut! Which was bloody funny!! Overall, a great addition which I thought was the best! Can't wait for Scary Movie 5 on Friday! 10/10
Day 30 Of My 31 Days Of Horror Double Review Part 2.Director David Zucker returns with the Scaryy Movies with Scary Movie 4. The film follows Cindy played by Anna Faris who notices that an alien invasion is going to destroy her hometown. The films main parodies are War Of The Worlds Saw Saw II and The Village. Not as fun as the 3rd but still a lot fun with a very funny scene involving Charlie Sheen.Rated PG-13 For Crude And Sexual Humor Throughout, Some Comic Violence And Language.Theatrical: 1hr 24min/84min. Unrated: 1hr 31min/91min.1 use of the F-word.**1/2/****
I enjoyed the first movie, liked the second though it had problems, and thought the third was okay. This however was a mess and definitely for me the worst of the series. The gags and spoofs aren't as focused this time around, The Grudge and The Village were not my idea of movies to spoof on, and the spoofs on them were rather weak. The acting is rather dire this time round with nobody seemingly able to get past their weak material or stock characters. The script is very unfunny and tired, the film pace-wise is for me the dullest of the four, the story is too thin for the running time and is predictable as well, the production values are rather cheap and the soundtrack is generic and uninspired. All in all, a bad movie and the worst of the series. 1/10 Bethany Cox
