Leave your thoughts about Scary Movie 2.
| Seattle TimesJohn ZebrowskiSome will find this funny. Some people laugh themselves silly flushing the toilet over and over. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanAn act of nose-thumbing that never quite figures out how, or even where, to position its thumb. |
| Film BlatherEugene NovikovYes, there are laughs, but they're sporadic, with a lot of the jokes being regurgitated from the original. |
| Chicago TribuneRobert K. ElderScary Movie 2 had seven writers. Seven. That's one writer for every big laugh in its stealthy 82 minutes. More frightening: these jokes are worth waiting for. |
| L.A. WeeklyF. X. FeeneyThe Wayanses can be crude beyond crude, but they're so clever that their inventiveness takes the place of taste. |
| Blunt ReviewEmily BluntIt's the wackiness of the whole thing that makes it work. |
| Reeling ReviewsLaura Cliffordjust goes through the motions of parodying one movie after another without any apparent stab at wit or humor |
| New York PostLou LumenickSo desperately unfunny that you wish someone would sue for false advertising. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderThere are seven writers credited for Scary Movie 2. That's approximately two writers per laugh. |
| Film Quips OnlineJohn R. McEwenBasically just a bunch of silly spoof scenes cobbled together around a thin premise, it allows the Wayans brothers to have fun in the way a group of kids might have fun with a video camcorder, except with a multi-million-dollar budget. |
