Some do apparently like this movie better than the first, but to me this is just one of those rare sequels that make out as a nice film.
Plot: it's been a couple of years since the events of the first film. Sidney and Randy are in college with Sidney as a theater major and a new boyfriend and Randy a film major...and still a virgin. Gale and Dewey and no longer in speaking turns after the things Gale said in a book she wrote based on the events of the last film that has recently turned into a movie called Stab. But as things continue to be normal, a killer dressed as Ghostface once again comes to town killing people...here we go again.
Now when i was a kid, i would more or less love sequels no matter what just on the account of the beginning where they are picking up where they left off for the main characters. And the nice thing about the beginning of this film is how it was one of those film that gave out that nice sense of that idea again. cause really, we seldom care less on account of how sequels turn out. i mean off the top of my head with the latest sequels of today, Iron Man and Harry Potter have been the only franchises nowadays where i still get that feeling in the beginning of a sequel. even after that, it was well done in the extent that it was what is was suppose to be and really keeping the audience interested. However, while they made this movie arguably just as good by going through the same basic steps as the last one, that also made the movie slightly predictable while also having some twist and still giving us an interesting mystery as to who is the killer.
Actors/Characters:
Neve Campbell/Sidney Prescott:She still did a pretty good job and i liked the idea of her character going after acting. it's a totally good career for the character for is she goes any further for that.
David Arquette/ Dewey Riley: he's good, i still like his character, but i don't like how he's still a little stone face and being push-over like. i mean it makes sense in a way concerning some things that happen before the events of this film but in a way as far as the acting i would've liked a change.
Courtney Cox/Gale Weathers: I liked the character development and the all around change in character. with her having to debate between her career and Dewey and the others, this helped for Cox to make her character be not as much like Monica Geller in Friends and more as this other character.
Jamie Kennedy/Randy Meeks: Randy is a very fun character and this hasn't changed at all in this film. nuff' said.
Jerry O'Connell/Derek: I liked his character. I mainly liked how much of a loving caring boyfriend he was for Sidney. I mean the singing in that cafeteria or wherever in the middle of the film was fun. That's all i want to say about him.
Music: same deal.
Editing: I think it was nice. just as it was suppose to be.
and that is my review for Scream 2.
