Consensus: Instead of being funny, this gross-out sequel plays like a sloppy, rushed-out product.
Runtime: 88 mins
Genre: Comedies
Synopsis: The Wayans brothers scored a surprise monster hit with SCARY MOVIE, and in the advertising for that film they promised "no sequel." So here it is, SCARY MOVIE 2, featuring the return of Shawn and... [More]

Reviews for Scary Movie 2
Does a satisfying hatchet job on the spooky ... world of supernatural pictures.
07/05/01
Predictable but only occasionally amusing.
07/05/01
It's just unfortunate that so much of it keeps beating a dead comedy horse from time to time.
07/05/01
So remarkably shapeless you can imagine Shawn and Marlon hashing out scenes between presenters at last year's MTV Video Music Awards.
07/05/01
This outing doesn't seem to understand that any attempt to parody a parody tends to negate any potential laughs.
07/05/01
Like its predecessor, it's as exuberant as it is puerile, oozing a cheeky energy that will make you forgive many things.

What exactly is being satirized when a priest has diarrhea?
07/05/01
Feels strained, cheesy (in a bad way) and largely uninspired.
07/05/01
The film's genuine groaners and howlers are few and far between.
07/05/01
Basically it's just an excuse to set up an uneven stream of sex jokes and toilet humour and movie spoofs.
07/05/01
It shows no particular insight into the movies or cultural phenomena being mocked.
07/05/01
Even fans of the original may find their patience tested.
07/05/01
When did comedy become so lazy?
07/05/01
Watching this sad parade of scatological jokes is a humanity-robbing experience.
07/05/01
The picture wastes barely a second heading straight into the toilet.
07/05/01
Just a bunch of spotty sketches slapped together that will satisfy no one except the diehards.
07/05/01
I liked the first Scary Movie, but this spooky rush job is a hobgob blob.
07/05/01
This is the most damning criticism that could ever be leveled against a film such as this -- I was a little bored.
07/05/01
Stupid, disgusting and inept is a deadly combination that plunges this sequel into the depths of boredom.
