Scream 3 is so underrated and bashed from fan boys. I love this film to death I enjoy this film I have watch it with my dad. It is an underrated gem my personal favorite sequel in the "Scream" franchise series. It is an improvement over the second one. Sidney Prescott is a such a bad-ass, you have for the first time in the movie an explosion you see a house been blowed up. The plot and the story is set the first time in Hollywood. I love that it is an original story, it does not copy the second or the first film, it doesn't mess with the first two movies. It does finish the trilogy and brings an ending conclusion to the franchise. I enjoy this film, I love this film to death. Wes Craven did a great direction debut. Ehren Kruger replaced Kevin Williamson thank god and he did much better job to make an original story and make an conclusion to end the trilogy. I love with what happened next with the characters: Sidney now is a crisis counselor, I liked that. Ghostface returns he has unfinished business with Sidney and he wants her back. Dewey Riley is now working as an film adviser In Hollywood. I love his character, this time around David Arquette was better actor in this movie. I love that they did something new with his character, he wasn't annoying, he wasn't useless, he was good. He shot with a hand gun and killed the killer on the end, a real hero in this movie. Patrick Dempsey as detective Mark Kincaid was great he was likable and I have enjoyed him. I love his character. I love Jenny McCarthy as Sarah Darling she was believable. The movie was not dull, lame, or repainting the same story again, it had less humor, more horror, mystery and action it was mixed it had that what the second movie didn't had. The story is set three years after Scream 2 Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), who has gone into self-imposed isolation following the events of the previous two films is drawn to Hollywood yet again she returns again to face the past and find out who is responsible for her mother's death. The new Ghostface begins killing the cast of the film within a film Stab 3 and has a score to stale with Sidney Prescott. Dewey Riley and Gale Waethers are trying to find out who is responsible for the killings. Gale has an unlikely sidekick Parker Posey as Jennifer Jolie. Courtney Cox is excellent as always as Gale Weathers. 10/10 I personally enjoy this sequel it is my favorite sequel in the franchise. Lance Henriksen is in this movie too and he is believable. I love the setting, the story and I love Sidney she is a bad-ass and I love happy ending, I love the trilogy to death and I love this movie to death sue me!

SCREAM 3 is one of those nauseating horror sequels made to cash in on the success of the films that have come before. The sole reason for these sequels is to make a quick buck and they're often poorly written, happy to bring back characters the fans already know and love so the hard work is done already. SCREAM 3 is a case in point: the only characters dwelt upon are the three returning stars from the first two films. Everyone else is interchangeable and clearly set up as victims just waiting to be knifed.The plot is pretty nonsensical and has far too many characters involved. In essence, yet another mystery killer is on the loose, this time murdering cast members of 'Stab 3', a film based on the supposed true-life killings surrounding Sidney Prescott. Yes, it's all about self-referencing once again, and although the in-jokes are thankfully cut down this time, it's still confusing, lazy, and pretty boring, to be honest. I had no idea who the director was which why I was utterly surprised that Wes Craven made this – it bears none of his trademark suspense, wit, or atmosphere, elements that made the first film in this series so good.I'm really not a main fan of the actors involved and that didn't really help me. David Arquette reprises his role of the bumbling cop, a character so annoying you want to fillet him yourself. Courtney Cox, skeletal and frightening, isn't too bad, but Neve Campbell is on auto pilot here and seems immensely bored with everything. The only actor I appreciated was Lance Henriksen, who's wasted in a minor red herring role – it's still great to see him and he ends up acting everyone off the screen anyway.Everything here seems to be toned down – from the gore (we're left with a series of moderately bloody stabbings that bear absolutely no imagination) to the suspense (non-existent) to the will-it-never-end twist ending. I really only bothered sitting through the whole thing in the interests of completeness, and to be honest I wish I hadn't bothered – SCREAM 3 is just as lacklustre as its predecessor. By now, the whole extended chase scenes involving the ghost-face killer are completely laughable and reminded me of the same year's SCARY MOVIE. Why they just didn't go ahead and make this one an out-and-out comedy I don't know.

The main reason I thought Scream was so good was the way it played with fans' expectations. It said 'Here's what usually happens in the genre, and here's what we're going to do'. Sometimes that was to totally subvert a genre convention and sometimes it was to follow one, having first pointing out that it was one. I thought it added a lot of humour to the film, as well as being very clever. With Scream 2 we got more subversion and more of a kind of knowing wink, which was delicious. With the third, imaginatively titled Scream 3, we got something that appears to going somewhere new and interesting, but soon became a little run-of-the-mill and very predictable. In short, it turned into the very kind of stuff that the original and the follow-up were lampooning. OK, there are moments in this which are worth a giggle, but I wasn't rubbing my hands together with delight at how clever it was, as I had done with the first two. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that, as the movie progresses, it gets sillier and more contrived. It pains me to say it, having loved the first two, but, the trilogy ends, not on a high, how it should have, but rather fizzles out.

The crew returns to make this horror franchise a trilogy. This time, the killer is stalking Hollywood and the stars of a meta movie Stab 3 based on events of Sydney Prescott (Neve Campbell) and company. Gale Weathers (Courtney Cox) and Dewey Riley (David Arquette) also return as wealthy consultants for the films and amateur detectives. The killer starts with Cotton Weary (Liev Schreiber) and works their way through the actors in the new film in the order that they die in the script.The movie expounds on trilogies and skewers the shallowness of film stars. Randy (Jamie Kennedy) is revived in a video to explain the rules for the third part and this means that things from the past will come back to haunt the main characters. The plot does come around and connect with the other films though the final explanation comes off as a little flimsy. Wes Craven embraces the campiness of this slasher flick a bit more than the first two.Check out more of this review and others at swilliky.com
