Scream VI

Never thought I'd see another Scream movie after Wes Craven's passing, but here we are with the second film since and I gotta say, it was better when Wes was alive. Now, I'm not saying this isn't a competent film. It very much is and is enjoyable through most of the runtime, dodgy acting aside, which was also a problem in number 5. But this new team can't come up with a good twist to save their lives. Saw the ending coming a mile away, same as the last one, and when it hits, you can't help but to feel let down. The logic that you have to throw out the window to believe this one is, well, illogical. I will say that the film is better than the previous one. There is no unimaginable deaths, like a 17 year old, 5 foot tall, skinny high school girl lifting a man twice her size. Thank goodness for that, because that is still hard to swallow for me. All the puzzle pieces fall into place quite nicely here, it's just fairly unbelieveable that the new crew, including old crew member, now FBI agent Kirby, had zero info on the culprits and had no idea about their intertwined past with the new crew. Kinda ridiculous. Other than that, it was a decent entry in what I hope is a dying franchise. This film just proved to me that there is not a whole lot left to do with the story and they are starting to slip when it comes to motives for their plotline. That and no Sydney Prescott is kind of a deal breaker. Even a cameo would've been nice, but we got nothing.

2.5 butcher knives out of 5.

I hated it. And it makes me so so sad to see a franchise that I love dearly being connected to a sequel like this. I loved the change of setting-that was a definite plus. The different intro was promising. Sidney's presence not being in the film is almost its own ghostly metaphorical character. Sidney is Scream, and her absence is painful to witness, so much so that you might as well not call this a Scream film. I hated the reveal as well, just a rehashed motive reminiscent of the motive in Scream 2. I LOVE Scream 2, it's my favorite film in the entire franchise, and Mrs Loomis is the best reveal/most underrated killer out of them all, but for the directors to talk about subverting expectations, they did the exact opposite regarding this film's motive. It does feel a bit too long, and I never thought I'd say a longer Scream movie would be a negative. The chase scene/call with Gale was great, though not as epic as the one in Scream 2. Much of the dialogue was cringey, including Gale saying that Sidney "deserves her happy ending." Really?! They made Gale say the most annoying comment used by fans online about whether Sidney should or shouldn't be involved? Ugh. Kirby, who's a character I've never cared for, was so underutilized (she should've been the killer/no survivor has ever been that, and it would've been a way to turn everything on its axis). These directors had the opportunity to create something fresh & great here, but failed.

I honestly have to say that I loved this film ! The main thing that I loved is the whole storyline , it was pretty rich . Every scene adds perfectly one to the other . All the characters are super charismatic. Ghostface is the scariest one until date . I loved how the tension is built on every single attack ! The k*ills are super creative and this is one of those films in the franchise that surprise you every second . I feel like everything that was wrong with scream 5 , was covered with scream 6. The opening kill was extremely creative !! Overall I hope this movie gets a lot of love cause it deserves. A perfect slasher.

I know its not Oscar worthy.

But if you expect This movie to be different from the other 5. You will be disappointed.

I dont get way peopel see This movie if They dont like the other.

Make no sence to me. And then wright how bad it is.

Sorry if my writing sucks. I am Norwegian with dyslexia. I wanted to wright realy short, but i have to wright Like 600 Words or something.

I was 14 years old when i saw the first one. I loved it. It was new and not like anny other horror movie at the time.

So for me This is nostalgia but also entertainment.

So i can absolutely recommend This one. If you like the other films and take it for What it is.

I went to the theater, because I had read the reviews here and they really succeeded to fool me.

I believe that everything this movie needed to become great was only a good ending. Unfortunately, the ending twist was poorly written and as a result of that nothing made any sense throughout the movie. We are all very aware that nothing can top the original, but at least they needed to try a lot better. I won't spoil anything, just think about the ending if it makes any sense to you, as for me it creates plenty of plot holes and I expected something more satisfying instead of what we got.

There is more action this time and the scene with Gale in her apartment was decent. She remainded me of Sarah Connor and Ripley.

Lastly, I don't know why, but this time every character feels like a child of Chuck Norris, or the The Terminator from the first movie when Kyle Reese explained to Sarah that he will not stop ever, until she is dead. Everybody is stabbed, deadly wounded, shot, but no.. the plot compels them to stay alive no matter what.
