Sure to inspire a few chuckles, but not enough to compensate for the recycled material from its predecessors.

Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Scary Movie 4 is so lazy it's downright boring, something not even a naked Leslie Nielsen (!) can salvage. Rated: 0/5 May 6, 2006 Full Review Anna Smith Time Out Watch (sober) at your peril. May 6, 2006 Full Review Keith Phipps AV Club What makes it to the screen feels pretty joyless. Rated: C Apr 20, 2006 Full Review Alberto Abuín Espinof A complete stupidity, with really bad actors. [Full Review in Spanish] Feb 12, 2020 Full Review Mattie Lucas The Dispatch (Lexington, NC) In its attempt to lay waste to every recent hit, Scary Movie 4 creaks and groans from one joke to the next. Rated: 1.5/4 Jun 5, 2019 Full Review Simon Weaving Screenwize By the time you get to see the fourth incarnation of any movie franchise, you should be pretty sure what you're in for %u2013 and this one is true to its brand. It's corny, mischievous and more than a tad tacky in places. Rated: 3/5 Oct 10, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member It tries so hard to catch your attention either with "sexual" scenes or out of pocket ones, but it fails. so hard. Truly one of the worst movies ever, not the worst one of the series, but still utterly terrible. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review Michael W This movie parody was terrible. Anna Faris, Craig Bierko, Regina Hall, Bill Pullman, and the rest of the cast did a terrible job in this movie. The plot of the movie was peculiar, tedious, and ridiculous. It's just another parody involving classic horror movies done horribly. If you haven't seen this movie yet, don't waste your time. It's not worth it. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/11/24 Full Review Jules N On essaye dans cet opus d'absolument coller des films qui n'ont aucun rapport entre eux, cela donne donc un film très peu compréhensible. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Audience Member Muito bom. Recomendo assistir esse filme. É um excelente filme de comédia e paródia. Tem um humor bom e piadas que fazem sentido. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/02/24 Full Review Yash B There isn't anything in "Scary Movie 4" that hasn't already been done better in the previous three movies, and yes I am including the second movie. This movie does have some bits that could have worked well as a YouTube video or SNL skit, but the story does not come together at all. I just can't find myself enjoying a spoof movie if it is not that funny and the story is also mediocre. Overall, it is a franchise that never lives up to the first movie and of the first four, this is probably the worst of them, despite a few chuckles scattered throughout. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/09/24 Full Review Pedro G Decente película, una cinta que esta por debajo del nivel de las anteriores películas de la saga en mi opinión. Esta película es bastante peor que la anterior, debido a que perdió por completo lo entretenido de su historia, contando con una trama algo aburrida por momentos y con pocas referencias al cine de terror en mi opinión. Las parodias no están nada mal, destaco algunas como la de Saw que son algo ingeniosas, pero no mucho mas. El humor sigue siendo lo mismo que la anterior pero con un poco menos de nivel, creo que no hay chistes tan buenos como antes, se nota un bajón de calidad que no es tan grande pero que esta ahí. El elenco es el mismo en su mayoría, solo se agrega Craig Bierko al elenco principal, haciendo de un personaje bastante olvidable e innecesario, siendo el reemplazo de Simon Rex. Los demás cumplen en su mayoría, solo esperaba un poco mas de los personajes de Kevin Hart y Anthony Anderson, que en la anterior cinta me habían gustado mucho y aca no parecen los mismos. En conclusión, una película que es disfrutable como las demás entregas pero que ya se nota un bajón de calidad y una falta de ideas en la franquicia, siendo una película algo aburrida por momentos pero con un humor que sigue funcionando a mi parecer. La recomiendo. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/24 Full Review Read all reviews
