Paul Lê Bloody Disgusting While not undeserving of its criticisms — and there is plenty — I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer‘s attempt to evolve the overall story is a little daring. Weirdly so for a film of this caliber and aim. Rated: 1.5/5 Jul 11, 2024 Full Review Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh Pivoting away from its predecessors was a bold choice that totally failed. Rated: 1/5 Sep 24, 2023 Full Review Charles Cassady Common Sense Media Another violent and unnecessary sequel. Rated: 1/5 Dec 15, 2010 Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy Not bad enough to be good. Rated: 4/10 Aug 13, 2009 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews Aggressively dull and downright unwatchable...

Frederico F Before we get into the plot, let's get one thing straight: this film was quite confusing. Some people thought it was a remake, a sequel, or a side story that had nothing to do with the first two. For me, it's all of these things at once. What happened here: for some reason, they didn't make a third part in the '90s; it was left open-ended, until a director was hired, but he only had two weeks to organize everything and begin filming. So, it wasn't a planned continuation of what the first two started, hence all the confusion. But look at it however you want, I see it as a separate story, the same way American Pie became a separate series from the original, or Home Alone 3 and Halloween 3 did too. Coincidentally, this happens several times with the third film. Let's get to the plot: five friends pull a prank, pretending they're being chased by Ben Willis, as if he's now a legend—that is, the very urban legend mentioned in the first film. Only, in this prank, one of them ends up dying. And the other four then end up participating in a pact, much like what happened with Julie's gang. A year later, someone dressed as a fisherman starts killing them, until the final revelation that... it was Ben Willis himself, now an evil entity, a ghost, a zombie with red eyes, whatever. What I liked about the movie: The lead actress is actually quite nice; at times, she's bolder than Julie, in other words, braver. I found the Ben Willis myth interesting. If the series had followed that path, I wouldn't have thought it was bad; it just lacked an explanation. With Jason, in Friday the 13th: Part 6 , the same thing happens, except lightning strikes his corpse and he turns into this zombie. The only thing missing here is that explanation. The film is full of references to the previous two, as a kind of homage. It even shows the original hook, the one with Ben Willis's severed hand on the boat from the first film, only it was bought online from someone who shipped it from the Bahamas, the island from the second film. Now, what this film really did better than the previous two was this: there's no Ben Willis at the beginning, meaning they have no one to blame for a hit-and-run. So when they receive the first threatening message, they start to distrust each other. This made the film more interesting in that sense. They know little about what happened to Julie and her friends, based only on a newspaper report they kept, so they don't know anything about the phrase "I know what you did...", making it easier for them to suspect each other. I also liked the mythology surrounding the supernatural Ben Willis; the only thing that really hurts him is the original hook; he has black blood, red eyes, and a somewhat deformed face. I thought it was a bit far-fetched, but I liked it. What I already think could have been better: From the beginning, it was clear that the fisherman was a non-human, supernatural being. It was impossible for someone to attack a cable car 15 meters in the air, jump from one to the other, and then disappear out of nowhere. This made everything very predictable. And the film's production, overall, isn't that bad, but it fell far short of the first two, that mega-production. I think a new film, focusing solely on an urban legend about the guy with the hook, would have been better received. As part of the "I Know" trilogy, it was really strange. In fact, the level of graphic death scenes here was much higher than in the previous ones; I think this somewhat distorted the franchise, where the focus was never on the violence itself, but on the plot. One character seems to have a premonitory dream of her death before it actually happened. This was also poorly explained, although Julie had some dreams in the previous films as well. Could this have something to do with it? And the ending, once again, leaves it open-ended, implying that no one escapes Ben Willis. And about the ending of I Still Know , here it implies that when Ben Willis pulls Julie from under the bed, she died there. Which I didn't like, I still hoped she would survive, even if she was only mentioned in this third part, anyway. Honestly, I actually liked this film, but I don't like to see it as part of a trilogy. I see it this way: 1 and 2 are a closed, concise, complete story. This one is a separate story. " I Know " has been remade and referenced so many times in other formats, it's been referenced in so many series and even cartoons, and it's even been the theme song for American and Brazilian songs, that it's okay to think of it as not part of the franchise, perhaps a side story. I remember being eager to see it when it came out, hoping to see a continuation of Julie and Ray's story along with Karla, the three survivors, but that frustrated me. After understanding everything that went on behind the scenes of this film, I was able to see it with new eyes. But I still hope, who knows, one day, for a worthy conclusion to this franchise that had everything to become a wonderful trilogy. But it ended up being a wonderful bilogy and an extra film. Oh, and the way the title evolves: "I Know," "I Still Know," "I Will Always Know"... I really liked that. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/08/25 Full Review Pedro Henrique C I'II Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006) It's confusing, pathetic, bad and poorly done. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Harrison E Omg!!! The beat movie of the trilogy - always a watch with the family - I’ll know what be doing next summer Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/03/25 Full Review Audience Member No exaggeration, the worst film ever made. Made in two weeks, dont watch it. Spoiler- its a waste of your time haha!! Makes a real killer slasher into a supernatural nonsense. Horribly grey - like the whole thing is a flashback scene. Weird jump cuts and flashes. Indoor lense flairs?? Was made in two weeks, you can tell. Cost 17 million budget - somone stole 16 million from the look of it - lord knows how they spent 17million to make this utter dross. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/31/25 Full Review Oaklee D More a pale imitation of the original rather than a proper third film, edited with all the edgy jump cuts thrown in for good measure. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/19/25 Full Review Kleber d Dez minutos. É tudo o que você precisa para perceber que a equipe por trás de Eu Sempre Vou Saber o que Vocês Fizeram no Verão Passado (o terceiro filme da franquia) não passaria num teste toxicológico. A abertura já entrega o jogo: cenas aéreas gratuitas mostram que o diretor ama firulas técnicas, mas não tem ideia de como usá-las. A edição, provavelmente patrocinada pela Tramontina, é um festival de cortes frenéticos – até em cenas de diálogo, onde você só quer entender o que está acontecendo. E um aviso aos epilépticos: toda vez que o antagonista aparece, prepare-se para um pisca-alerta de flashes incessantes, que mais confundem do que criam tensão. Velocidade? Não, só bagunça. Atuações? Risada garantida. Já vi peças de ensino médio mais convincentes. Se o segundo filme já tinha uma queda brutal na qualidade do elenco, este terceiro é tão amador que chamar essa turma de “atores” poderia me render um processo do sindicato. O enredo, então, é um caso à parte. O filme é uma sequência com um elenco rebootado, faz uma menção preguiçosa aos eventos dos dois primeiros e para por aí. De repente, descobrimos que o vilão agora é sobrenatural. Isso mesmo: um Freddy Krueger ou Jason Voorhees genérico, imortal (ou quase, vai entender). Quem teve essa ideia claramente não estava sóbrio. No terceiro ato, até explicam como ele se teletransporta, mas isso só cria um novo buraco: se o vilão pode aparecer onde e quando quiser, por que enrola tanto para matar os personagens? Seria até um favor. Conveniência do roteiro, claro, que usa essa habilidade só quando lhe convém. Eu Sempre Vou Saber o que Vocês Fizeram no Verão Passado é o equivalente a um trabalho escolar feito pela pior turma da escola: uma câmera tremida, um enredo sem pé nem cabeça, uma pichação de muro feita por alguém entorpecido. Tudo é tão amador que, quando os flashes não estão te cegando, você só sente pena. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/31/25 Full Review Read all reviews
