Check out my new ranking of the Scream franchise: ruclips.net/video/NQwod_LIw4c/видео.html
Hi Cody, I just saw the movie and I think I completely and utterly agree with you. It's pretty good and I'm not upset or dissatisfied that I saw it but I was just like you; I walked in with modest expectations and left feeling that it was definitely overhyped. My rating: 3.5/5. Good, not great.
I liked all 5. I thought part 4 was the worst but still all good. They all advanced the story. When Dewie asked Sid, "How's Mark?" In part 5, that was a call back to Patrick Dempsey's character in part 3. Detective Mark Kincaid.
I thought scream 4 was more gore filled.
1984 children of the Corn movie review would be nice, cuz there is room for it a debate that the opening scene could run a close second to at least one or two of these opening scream films.
After the attack on Sam in the hospital, they mentioned moving Tara to a private floor, so I think that's why the dead cop was the only one there.
Yep my exact thoughts. They moved her to a private area. And because she was in a stable condition and just watching TV she didn't need a nurse at that time so her nurse was probably elsewhere while she just had the cop keeping guard.
David Arquette was the best part of the movie. Fantastic performance
I liked Jenna Ortega too! The cast was pretty solid between the legacies and the new cast
It was shocking to see him die. In a way it was his own fault he died because he should've just went on the elevator with everyone else. I like how the director wanted to have Amber as the ghost face killer burnt to a crisp and he probably took that bit from Once Upon a time in Hollywood when her character gets burnt to a crisp at the end and had it planted into this movie. It totally fit.
It's unforgivable that they killed him!!!
@@my3rs307 I agree and even though he said he had been stabbed 9 times this was the 10th and it was enough to kill him.
@@bryanrizzo9377 do my comments get deleted again?!
The Best thing about Scream is that you know who the killer is, then the film tricks you into doubting yourself
Exactly!
Yep agreed!
I didn't like the killers in this one too much, but I did like how it tricked me into doubting myself
SPOILERS
Yeah I was saying why didn’t Richie help Dewey in the hospital and it was a flaw for me but then when the reveal happened it made sense
@@TanWam spoilers
yeah I picked Ritchie when I saw him holding the ghostface mask in the fan poster but the film threw me off
It was fun and went by in what felt like 5 mins. The people in my theatre were awesome! They laughed and cheered at all the right times. No one was talking. For me, that is the biggest win.
Wish I could say I had that experience. I had this pretentious couple a few seats up from me. Talking I can get passed on, It's annoying? But I can overlook it. The checking your god damn cell phone every 10mins? Holy fuck...
Same experience.
@@TwistedSMF yah same this girl wouldn’t stop talking so loud but this random guy got up and told her to stfu and she was silent the entire time lol
@@greenscreenmovieguy5582 that’s what I like to see, the people who do that are selfish scum.
What's that mean though. Laughed and cheered at the right times. Now cheering I guess I understand. But, no one can tell me what I find funny and not funny.
For me what makes a SCREAM movie a Scream movie is how good the phone calls are AND how the kills keep you on your edge with the suspense. Honestly i thought Scream 5 delivered with those especially the whole scene with Judy. Ghostface played her so damn well
It didn't have any suspense at all
I will say that while the carnage was overhyped, I found it felt more "vicious" with the knife than in previous installments.
I feel like the stabs were much more graphic than the other movies besides that one closet kill from 4
In all fairness, Scream has delivered some inventive kills. Casey was gutted and hung from a tree. Tatum was squashed in garage door. Stu had tv smashed on his head. Cici was thrown from her balcony. Officer had pole slammed through his head. Mickey was gunned down. Stone was stabbed and beaten with frying pan. Tom exploded. Tyson was stabbed, beaten up, and thrown from balcony. Olivia was brutally beaten and gutted. Rebecca was stabbed and thrown from parking garage. Trevor was savagely shot. Jill took defibrillator to the head and was shot.
One of the most important elements to a good death scene is the set pieces, and the Scream franchise really succeeds with its set pieces.
I sat down in my theater guessing who the killer was the entire time. Either of which screamed red herring or red handed. One of them I saw coming. The other I didn't.
I new it was going to be Amber and as far as Richie I didn't. I like how the director threw a bit of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood action in there as far as how she died. She burnt to a crisp! Once again what a bitch.
@YūGen Grey Nah. The boyfriend.
And the Japanese girl
I agree with everything you said except the kills. While they were simple stabs, they were BRUTAL. The way Ghostface stabbed his victims in this film was very calculated and precise. There’s more blood in this Scream than all the others.
Exactly. He really was wrong about that part. Downplayed it big time
Yeah and the way the final girl brutally killed jack quaids character? I think that was a first, and he’s downplaying it all.. lol
I thought the same thing about the empty hospital floor, however I did work in a hospital and there were units that were shit down but still operational for over flow emergencies. So in theory they could have used one of those and had a cop watching her and no staffing because she was stable. Just to help you think a little better about that.
Yup! My Dad’s a doctor and he said that the hospital situations in Scre4m and 5CREAM are pretty realistic.
PLUS, didn’t Judy say that they would move Tara to a private floor??
@@gregsthrottle Came here to say this. They did say they were moving her to a private floor.
@@gregsthrottle yeah I’ve actually had to setup a closed down unit due to a snow storm in the event employees had to stay over and it was creepy just like in the movie. And yes Judy said they’d move her to a private floor. I will also point out it wasn’t an a tire unit but we did have a floor with a few private rooms for celebrities or executive family members. It was always empty.
Well earlier in the movie after Sam gets attacked in the break room and Sheriff Hicks is in Tara’s room talking to them and Sam asks her what is gonna be done to protect Tara, Hicks mentions moving Tara to an empty floor. Which doesn’t make sense when you think about it would be better to keep her around other people and witnesses.
@@Jessica-rf9ih yeah agreed! That’s one of those tropes you have to think, why? But then accept there wouldn’t be a horror movie if everything made complete sense! People know their risk of a car wreck goes up when they text and drive but yet they do it anyways!
In my opinion I thought this was the best since the original. I felt it did a great job and setting a tense atmosphere, with emotional ties and a clear love for the original.
Can’t wait to get a review up for it on my channel tonight!
This is how you can tell the fake fans who only watched the first one recently just to see this one. This Scream is not better than 2 or 4.
@@duhdoy1598 I like scream since I was a kid and this one is my 3rd favorite and the only reason for the 4th not as my 3rd is because I hated some of the characters in the 4th one
This is definitely not the best one since the original, rewatch the others please.
I think 4 was the best sequel
I watched this last night (stayed away from trailers) and I enjoyed it. Dewey went out like a champ. It was fairly easy to guess the killers in this movie as you said.
Not caring about spoilers for people who haven’t seen it, I see.
@A O ok so at the point I watched this video I’d already seen the film. My comment was really for others who hadn’t. You can read or watch a review to see if the film is worth watching which I can only assume some people did with this video. And I can’t recall a single moment in this video where he said Dewey died so it wasn’t spoiled for anyone. If you’re scrolling the comments and you see this spoiler then it might ruin the film for you. Of course, at no point do I recommend scrolling the comments because of spoilers but if you’re going to do it at least put a spoiler alert at the beginning. My point is, if you see the film before other people, don’t spoil it like this.
well I really wish he hadn't died. Since they did not show his face I hope he comes back. Remember what he said they always come back. And not today. So maybe its not today or in this movie.
I think he and Sidney are best characters of Scream, and he and Sidney are the real best friends. Its been shown so many times. I mean I was surprised that Gale said you killed my best friend. So she was probably referring to the Sheriff because she and Dewey were like a couple. Just my thoughts but Dewey might just come back.
@@Sentient_Zee Unless I'm mistaken, there's now a "known" timeline when people should be keeping the spoilers out of the comments unless spaced with an alert -- which is the first weekend or week at the most.
After that, it seems that all's fair. But, this is something I've heard talked about. Not sure it's agreed on by everyone
I actually care about keeping spoilers warned. That's just me
Gotta say, Judy Hicks set up the “private floor of the hospital” in her first scene, it was a really quick line but I remember it because I said to myself “there’s an entire empty floor to this hospital?? Huh, must not have many sick people in this town.”
Absolutely! I was just gonna comment the exact same. Kudos. Also, was Ghostface wearing a bulletproof vest? Gotta wonder.
@@ShaneyBright he was, he flashed it at Dewey right before he stabbed him
I love that you're wearing Sean's merch. My two favorite people to watch for movie reviews supporting each other.
What I Don't Like About The Movie
* The movie is decent what I did not like about this movie is the new era characters to me was kinda boring like the first movie we actually cared about the characters cause the development they all had even the minor characters this one the characters didn't have much development but Jenna Ortega & Melissa Barrera character Tara & Sam.
* I also did not like Sidney & Dewey had interaction in person they only talked on the phone like we didn't see them meet up again after all these years and to late cause Dewey end up getting killed neither Judy had scenes with the original 3 and Gale & Dewey only had one scene in it.
* Sidney should have had a bigger role in the movie due to Sam being Billy's daughter and Billy a huge part of Sidney's life so I would figure she might check on her or maybe back off away from her I mean her father did tried to kill her but Sidney should have been involved more him and Stu inspired all these people dressed up as Ghostface to kill Sidney.
* I still don't know if I like the idea of Sam being Billy's daughter and I did not really like the hallucinations she was experiencing and seeing figments of a dead Billy I just did not like it I get this movie was trying to be completely different from the past 4 films but I just don't know but Melissa Barrera performance as Sam was good I have more flaws of the movie but I want to get into what I did like.
What I Did Like About The Movie
* I believe this is Ghostface best movie and Ghostface is very brutal and agressive in this film and very taunting on the phone.
* The opening scene was so good again Jenna Ortega character sold being scared so well and it was intense I felt sorry for her almost.
* The final act some people found Richie being Ghostface obvious but not me I didn't expect the boyfriend to be the killer again that's most likely why Sam suppose to be the new Sidney I guess but I like how brutal the final act was.
I have more negative than positive about the movie it's not a bad movie at all it's watchable but I'm mixy when it comes to the movie I watched it twice already I really feel the original trio should have been more in this film you can't have Scream without them well now two of them the movie feels like a Scream movie but sometimes it did not.
I honestly didn't guess it and its been my favorite finale since the 2nd one. I loved all the throw backs, all of the Easter eggs. I feel like the kills, while not super graphic, felt WAY more personal. The big death....that one made me cry in the theater.
My second favourite since the OG, I think Scream 4 is very underrated and close to this but I think 5 just pips it for now.
8:04 Scream's basically the opposite of most other horror series. Most series have either a superhuman or supernatural killer who's either really hard to kill or can't be killed and most main characters die. In Scream it's different killers who are killed off at the end but the same protagonists.
The fact that he’s human makes it scarier in my opinion. To know that your best friend is secretly training on how they’re going to toy and kill you, all while you go about your life, is scary. Where with Michael or Jason you don’t care because they have identity and you know everything they’re capable of. Where suddenly your friend is shooting people in the head and trying to cut you open after you thought you were at a party.
I was pretty scared going into it because I thought that the would overdue the "new technology" part of it but they honestly did it pretty well
what's funny is the people that produced ready or not did an outstanding job with this film since Wes Craven's passing
@@Braylon1997 Ikr personally i loved ready or not because the movie was honestly just so fun to watch the kills were gory and i always love when the main protagonist is a bad ass it really gave me your next vibes
yeah first scene with the door locks was amazing and the scene using the GPS to lure Chad was pretty good
Not gonna lie, the WiFi security made me roll my eyes at the trailer. But in the movie the BUILD is so effective that when Ghostface is making fun of her, unlocking and locking over and over since he’s already in the house, you feel scared with Tara.
The part where they show RUclips reviews on “ stab 8” in the film I immediately thought of Cody
Too bad I'm not at Dead Meat level. That would be amazing.
@@CodyLeachYT you will be eventually
Great review, I can’t wait to see it. So glad you finally got a good movie for your birthday!!
I really liked this one this might be my favorite sequel of the 4, it does so much well, the kills are brutal, it's so much fun. I think they did right by the OG cast while still making the new cast feel important and fun. David Arquette definitely came in doing something different and he held it down. The two main standouts from the new cast I think were Jenna Ortega and Jack Quaid. And one returning cast member I think is not getting enough attention is Marley Shelton as Sheriff Judy Hicks, in 4 I didn't care for her this time around I really liked her.
Finally someone agrees with me it's my favorite sequel
I thought the movie was extremely boring. But i was sad when Judy died. 😢
@@Hellstothenaw it kept me on my toes up until the reveal of the killer
@@Braylon1997 wish i could say the same.
@@laurarules3642 There was no wokeism here luckily. But even in the good old days when movies weren't so woke, you would still get a boring movie here and there. This movie was definitely a little lackluster. The main 3 beloved characters (and fans) were disrespected here imo. Disappointed.
Great review man. Really see eye to eye with you on this one. I also guessed the killer right from the beginning lol
10:42 Scream 4 had an inexplicably near empty hospital when Jill tried to kill Sidney, Dewey, Gale and Judy in a desperate attempt to keep her fame as the supposed "sole survivor" of her own murders.
They also kinda explain it in this movie when Judy says they're giving Tara a private floor
Dewey emotionally wrecked me while watching, I felt so bad for him and one scene with him seriously made me cry bc it was so heartbreaking
Also that first character to die felt like a jab at Morgan Wallen. The hair and clothes seriously looked exactly like him
Lmao I thought it was him for minute
@@josephfaircloth6950 I honestly did too when I saw the trailers for the first time lol 🤣
Not in a rush to see this but happy to know it's not a complete January dumpster fire, great review as always Cody
Awesome review Cody and Happy belated Birthday!
I wish there was more connection. To stu as far as the killer went … in the first scene he seemed so mad she didn’t know it was 2! That would’ve made my scream circle complete.
You may have missed, but they said when they were taking Tara back to the hospital that she was going to have a room on a floor that was not being used. Hence no other people as your complaint stated. Legacy characters were great and they're "moving on" with their lives so in the future I expect to not see them or barely. Solid review. I loved the movie myself,. 1 4 and 5 are my favs.
God damn that Dead Meat cameo. Instantly one of my favorite Scream sequels just for that part
Loved how they used “Red Right Hand” again in Vince’s death scene. Great touch
"I like a little variety in my carnage " lmao 🤣 great review Cody . I appreciate how you talk your shit . Keep up the great work
facts, this movie is the best Dewy!!! Also, whoever did this payed homage to Wes nicely.
The people who directed the movie are the same who directed ready or not
I really really enjoyed it, I guessed the same killer reveal as you before the film started just by off chance but it didn't ruin it for me.
Definitely the best version of Dewey we've had!😄
Great video as usual Cody!
Will you ever do a scream mtv show review Cody? I would really love to know your thoughts on it. The kills are pretty creative in the show.
Ghostface is definitely one of my favorites, up there with Raekwon, Method Man and Inspectah Deck
Masta Killa is dope, too.
Scream 2022 was literally a love letter to Wes Craven and Kev Williamson's original. It was made by fans for fans. The minor things I can nitpick at are not enough to not enjoy the film. The only thing I'll critise is that from the trailer, you know the kills and when the scares are coming. The only time I was on edge in the cinema was Judy/Wes kills, cause I didn't know what or when something was gonna happen. Every other kill was pretty much shown in the trailer. The characters were stronger in this than in Scream 4. All of them ( the main ones ) have a very definite personality. Whereas in Scream 4, none of them (except Kirby) had any form of personality and they were just there to be kills or be the killer. The hospital scene in 2022 did make me laugh, cause I turned to my friend halfway through saying "where's all the nurses and docs?" haha. Richie was my favourite character walking out of the cinema(out of the new characters). I thought he was great, I liked him non-ghostface and I liked him when he turned ghostface. Not my top 3 but definitely near the top.
I totally agree with you about David Arquette. Wasn’t a big fan of his performance in the first four, not bad but wasn’t anything special, but in this film, he did amazing. He went out with a fight and I’m glad they didn’t do a fake out death again.
Love your reviews bro!
I also guessed who the killer was too(well one of them) just by one of their previous roles in a certain Tarantino film… but it didn’t ruin it for me.
I love that Dead Meat cameo and Kirby Reed Easter egg(I hated Scre4m because of her fate)
No way same with me. I new all along Amber was going to be a killer and she's the main one of the two IMO. Considering her character burns into a crisp at the end of OUATIH it was cool to have the same happen to her character as the killer in this one.
Great review man! Love to hear your thoughts as always. I loved this movie. Yes it didn't do anything like reinvent the genre but I do feel as it's the best film since the original! 4.25/5 for me. No spoiler but I actually called the killer even before the movie based on the actor/actress lol. But I agree I do like the motivations and such.
Same
no way is it better than 2 (and that cast was stacked). Scream films are stuck in a 90s capsule. You can't really top Wes and his way of pacing, suspense, chase scenes, 90s music/soundtrack. This one was ok nostalgia entry.
No it's not better than 2 lol. I wouldn't say it's better than 3 either. But that's me. 4 maybe. I was not a fan of that for the same reason I wasn't for this. Killer reveal was boring
Took my wife to see this in theaters she didn't like a few fake jump scares but she was very entertained for not having seen any previous movies. Honestly I was surprised this was one of the better January movies I've seen. I'm not a fan of Dewy in any of the previous movies but he was definitely one of the best characters.
My thoughts going in were same as yours. Just wanted to see a fun Scream movie. And I really liked this one. They tried their best to honor Wes Craven and the legacy of Scream. And they succeeded. As a huge fan of the series, I'm very happy with this one. Great review too, Cody.
Speaking of the killer reveals and kills, I actually thought it was really clever in a meta way that who the killers were was so obviously predictable very early on, because that ties into their pathology as toxic fans (they lack creativity and originality and have a nostalgia obsession), therefore of course they would inadvertently place themselves in trope roles for their cover up. The reveal being a slight disappointment is of course the killers' own fault as it is an unfortunate result of the killers' attempt to "course-correct" the franchise.
The Richie character even says it was disappointing after the reveal. The dialogue worked really well with being able to speak to the characters and the audience at the same time, especially when he says that he even made you believe it was your sister for a second. I had to laugh out loud at that part because I literately did think that.
That’s the vibe I got from the reveal as well.
I loved the movie! But i do agree with you that the killers identities were way too easy to figure out.
The hospital scene was so frustrating lol I work in a hospital and there is always someone on the floor. Even when they turn the lights off for nighttime, there’s always a NA, RN, environmental worker etc and if they’re short-staffed, the charge nurse covers the station. Also, I did remember they said they were going to move her to a private unit, but still there would be someone on the floor. ALWAYS. Lol
I haven’t watched past scream 2, when they were coming out I wasn’t really able to latch on to the series. But I’m thinking maybe it is time to commit and watch them all. Great review man!!
Love your review.
I actually appreciate the impact that neve and courteney had in such short screen time. I get that they wanted to focus more on new characters and it was a breath of fresh air. Loved the new SCREAM.
Sad about dewey of course. But it was bound to happen to one of the legacies.
Fantastic movie.
Sam and tara were great.
I liked the almost invisible bond Sam had with her father.
Call back to Billy referring to Sidney's situation in 96 to be like Jodie Foster in the silence of the lambs having flashbacks of HER dead father. I thought that fit very well.
Sam went in complete savage mode on Ritchie as if she was channeling her father's psychotic energy.
Tara was a very strong character.
And I can't stress enough how much I adore Mindy Meeks and her carrying the legacy of her uncle randy.
So many great moments.
The best requel I've seen yet.
I absolutely fucking loved this movie, Scream is my favorite franchise of all time (not horror franchise, so franchise in general) and this gave me everything I love and more. As for the killer reveals, without giving anything away, I kind of had the opposite reaction as you, the first that was revealed I guess near the beginning but the second on, the one you found obvious, really surprised me.
I know I’m in the minority for sure but I really did not like this movie. The script definitely had issues as far as plot contrivances and lazy writing, excess suspension of disbelief, the pacing was a little off in the second act, and none of the new characters really had any compelling or even standout traits aside from being carnage Candy. Marco Beltrami not doing the score also really shows. No one really asked for this movie and I don’t feel it added anything to the overall story. The story was also much darker and lacks that comedic touch that the first for sequels were known for. I wish I liked it as much as everyone else does 🤷♂️
Great review cody!
You give great reviews. Thank you!
Thank you paramount plus.. you gave me more cody leach vids 🤟
In regards to the empty hospital. There was a line of dialog that they would give Tara i believe, her own personal floor and room. Hence single guard.
I am a die hard Scream fan and really enjoyed it. This installment was a love letter to Wes and the franchise. I absolutely loved that they dedicated the movie to Wes Craven. I believe Wes would be proud. #ForWes
Judy Hicks moved Tara up to a PRIVATE floor which is why there was only one cop and no nurses and doctors. The staff wouldn’t go up there unless to check on Tara and the cop is there to watch over her.
Congrats on 70k
I liked it better than Halloween Kills. It was straight to the point & there was no unnecessary shit like "Evil dies tonight"
Halloween being my favorite Halloween kills was horrible except James Jude and Christopher Nelson. But scream 5 still sucked worse and that's saying ALOT.
It's because the scenes were much more graphic in this film that people appreciate it. It brought a sense of realism to the franchise which I personally found to lessen my enjoyment in the previous films. This film felt much more "real" to me and that is when slasher films can be really scary. I loved seeing ghostface wear a vest when he got shot and all the little details like that. They also combined this really well with the meta angle they were going for. The first thing I said to my girlfriend after watching it was this was everything Matrix 4 wanted to be and more. Thoroughly enjoyed this one.
Saw it and thought it was ok at best. Way too many references to a point where it just felt like a straight up comedy. People don't realize these movies are horror movies first with comedic elements.
Eh. I’ve always thought more of the Scream series’ satire and comedic bent than I have of it’s horror or slasher elements. Not counting the new movie, the first one is the only one that’s properly vicious at points.
I get your overall point. I’d say Scream was never a “horror “ movie as opposed to a satire slasher. None of the films are set to immerse you completely in the horror elements either in my opinion. I feel this opinion with the MCU films on callbacks though. It can take away from the feeling of a film regardless, especially when it just feels like fan service and the movie overall was alright at best. Same here.
Agree
It felt like the vh1 mtv series
So mad
When Jack Quaid was in the car on the way to woodsboro he said something to Sam and I was like yep he's the kill
So I mostly enjoyed the review as usual but one thing I do have to say is in regards to your comment about the hospital floor being empty, I had heart surgery 9 months ago and after I left ICU and went to the cardiac floor for the next 7 days, every night after about 9:00, good luck finding any staff. Sometimes there would be nobody in sight and you would have to flag someone down. I'd be going out for my nightly walk in the Halls and couldn't find a single person I had to push a button to ring somebody in and they would sometimes have to come from another floor, if it wasn't a scheduled time for a nurse to be in your room the floor could be empty and sometimes smaller hospitals only have one nurse working in entire floor... Just speaking from experience and the fact that woodsboro is presented as a small town I can totally see that. Anyways good review man congratulations on 70k
Interesting. Maybe it's the Covid world we live in I just can't wrap my head around an empty floor in a hospital.
@@CodyLeachYT that is fair, I guess it probably also depends on which floor you're on because every floor is different in terms of which kinds of patients are on each floor so I imagine there's certain parts of the hospital that are slammed packed 24 hours, either way I definitely wasn't trying to be a douchebag in the comment section LOL just creating banter and conversation on the matter, I always look forward to your videos and I am genuinely happy to see you being successful on this platform and also happy belated birthday brother keep it up
they did Dewey's character right in this movie. they finally took him seriously instead of making him a side joke, like how the other movies make him clumsy and easily fall down. I also really like that the legacy characters were in the background more instead of center stage, apart from Dewey. the one killer reveal I thought was rather weak and felt they tried to make it too shocking by the reveal but it just was a let down
Yeah I really enjoyed Dewey' in this film David did a great job
Dewey was way more interesting in 5 than he was in 4. In 4 it felt like the plot was just stringing him along and he did nothing significant.
Why would I watch a new scream movie if the original aren't the main focus anymore? What's the point of making 5 6 7 etc then?
I love Scream. Can’t wait to check this out.
Scream 5 tries to be the first film again and yet opens a new chapter to this franchise satisfyingly. Interesting watching this one for the first time after seeing the new one too.
Idk the stabbings were a lot more graphic than any of the other movies from what I remember, but I knew Jack Quaid was the killer when they announced Jack Quaid was in the cast 😂 also I agree that the new friend characters weren’t very developed but I think the actors did a good job with what they were given
I actually live in modesto CA so it was shocking to see that and here them mention it in this movie was pretty cool. Also that bowling alley they work at doesn't exist here tho lol
I personally loved this film. They did some things with who the killer was that took me by surprise. I also think the kills were pretty good. Definitely the bloodiest of the franchise.
definitely not the bloodiest lol
@@jboao definitely the bloodiest lol
which was never the point of the Scream movies
@@jboao 100% it is. The scene by the doorway? Yikes.
I really enjoyed it. It was super fun and I love how it satires "re-quels" and its a pretty good re-quel itself.
(I feel like you should still do a spoiler review😁)The main thing I felt when leaving the theatre was that it was really missing Sidney’s character, and if that’s the last we get to see of her then I’m not very content with that. They went a little overboard on the meta stuff but I enjoyed a lot of it, hid the killers decently well, gave a lot of options and made you think. Kills could have been more creative but they were definitely cool and gory. And they really teased the idea of Stu coming back😩 feel like they blue balled us hard. Overall I give it a 7.8/10. I have to watch it again before I can rank it
I was expecting more of Sidney in the movie, that´s my biggest problem with Scream 2022. Hope the fix this in the next one.
@@carlosmanuelmendezgodinez3701 if there is another one and she is in it a good amount then this one won’t bother me as much because they were introducing new characters, but if not (which is possible) it will make rewatches in the future not as enjoyable for sure
This is really accurate I’ll have to watch it again to see
Saw it last night, loved it!
speaking of your hospital at 10:19, Judy Hicks said a few scenes before that they were moving her to a "private floor" so that is more than likely the reasoning on why there is no one on that floor.
just gained a subscriber i really enjoyed your review 👏🏼
Thank you
I’m genuinely impressed with how well they introduced the new characters with the legacy characters and how gale, Dewey and Sidney are taking a back seat for new storylines
i think the opening kill this time kept me entertained and i think it was a little more brutal than the others. as someone who’s seen all of them (unpopular opinion: i loved scream 3 the most) i think this movie had one of the best opening scenes.
Loved it the twist at the end who the killer was. The Nostalgia with certain flash backs from the first scream 8.5 /10
Oh, just need to add I have been in hospital were I couldn’t find anyone and had to press the buzzer. I had surgery and kept passing out trying to drink water and would wake up from pouring it on my face. But it was creepy to be alone on my corridor.
One thing about the hospital that I did notice Sheriff Hicks said that she would move them to a private floor so that could explain the one cop and empty hospital.
That’s funny that you picked up on him being the obvious killer. I was kinda taken back by that one. For me, I could tell that girl was in on it. Her phone at the beginning being “cloned” wasn’t covered enough and all of her dialogue was super sketch. Her dialogue in the basement is when I thought to myself that maybe they were trying to trick us because it seemed so blatant. But nope, hiding in plain sight again.
When Dewie asked Sid, "How's Mark?" In part 5, that was a call back to Patrick Dempsey's character in part 3. Detective Mark Kincaid.
Cody please reply, I am 49 and its great to see a younger fella with great taste, I don't think you've seen 24 by looks of it...only 2nd to breaking bad for me, would love to see your season rankings one day, but obv it's a big load....24 episodes each season...so take a break between and let's see the ranking in 2023 :)
At 10:30 regarding the hospital scene. I think the reasoning as to why there was no other patients ect around was because after the first attack in the lunch room they offered to give tara her own private room in the upper floors, so my guess is she was just the only patient in that area to keep her safe and she just had the cop with her on guard while her nurse was on another floor treating other patients while tara was resting and was in a stable condition so didn't need a nurse with her at all times.
I certainly liked it, but I felt a lot of the same things. They kept talking about stu through the film that made me believe Matthew Lillard was going to be the killer, especially with Billy being this hallucination Sam was having. I also thought the kills were going to get more brutal, and we were going to get a chrome face flamethrower ghostface, but that was just a meta thing. However for everything that doesn't work quite as well, there was five things that i really liked. Scream was the first horror movie I recall, so that one is still the best for me, but I liked this one. Worth the price of admission and snacks.
Interesting the little quick screen shot of that RUclips playlist in the movie hinted at Kirby being alive.. Well she is. she's listed on imdb for scream 6
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but there was a line of dialogue from a doctor or cop saying they were moving her to a private floor of the hospital. It was an easy to miss line admittedly.
I had a blast. I had low expectations.
I think they did a great love letter for Wes with the story. I did enjoy the name drops Sam carpenter , wes Hicks
This movie had some hilarious lines. I mean they set it up for the passing of the torch 🔥😂
Scream 5 was pretty awesome in my opinion. Yes, it makes fun of toxic fandom but I, as someone who's sick of toxicity, appreciated that, definitely a bit too meta at a few points and Dewey's death did upset me but I wasn't angered by that like a lot of people because it had to happen at some point.
I actually guessed the killer just by how the character was shown in the marketing. They were doing exactly what I thought they were doing.
12:14 well, he broke the leg, that's something new 😂
Spoiler: Sidney's absence is felt, and although Sidney has significantly less time on screen, she is still the Sidney we know. Sidney this time round is a mother protecting her family. She immediately goes looking for Ghostface once Dewey is killed. She is armed. And I actually love how Sid and Gale buddy up in this one. Whilst their individual character archs are very simple, having them together works really well. They have such a history, and both are closely tied with Dewey. It was nice to see Sid and Gale kicking some @ss together. The characters are still true to what we know them as. They just had a shorter period of time to showcase themselves.
The scene with Dewey and Sid on the phone is sweet. I absolutely LOVE Dewey and Gale's scene. Such emotion.
Why are you giving spoilers fool ?
@@replicacity92 Fixed. Fool.
@@hashtagfilm what you said about Dewey is a spoiler dude
@@replicacity92 Spoiler is written at the start 👍
As a big fan of this franchise I love the reverence they give to ghostface. In more then a couple scenes they film him from an upward angle and just give him a bit of a “god” feel, and I love it! That along with the brutal attacks (not always kills) just makes me love the ghostface killer
I just got from seeing it. I am not what you would call a "Scream" fan. The first one I did like somewhat, But bout as far it went with me. I loved this one. I had a shit a experience in the theatre tho. I have a T-shirt I love. "I used to be a people person, But people ruined it" LMAO
A good review especially as my introduction to your channel. Dropped a subscribe for the objectivity. They were on private hospital floor which is why there's no patients but yeah still like come on there's no one else ? Also I think some kills were generic some were brutal and some were silly. Overall a solid solid scream movie and now my ranking goes 1, 2, 5,4,3. Loved the video though I think you've hit the nail on the head there !
Don't ever go to haddonfield memorial. Only 1 Dr on duty and he's drunk. 3 nurses, one security guard who can't do his job. No patients in the lobby and no reporters outside.
It came out today in the uk , loved it. We also got to see billy again 🥳
So funny who you called as being a killer immediately- I called the other one immediately lol
