Nashville I. It’s not the worst sequel; it’s mildly satisfying. Half the reveal is kind of perfect, but the other half is too ridiculous for film. Overall a decent watch but it’s pretty forgettable. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review Claudio C Scream 2 (1997) Inferior Sequel (11,817 – 09 Jul 2025 – by Claudio Carvalho) When Phil (Omar Epps) receives two tickets for the premiere of the movie “Stab”, based on the novel by Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox), he brings his girlfriend Maureen (Jada Pinkett). The audience receive Ghostface costumes as gift, but Phil and Maureen are killed by the real Ghostface. Meanwhile, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) is studying at Windsor College and dating cinema student Derek (Jerry O'Connell). Cotton Weary (Liev Schreiber) has been released and Gale wants to interview Sidney and him, but Sidney refuses. When Ghostface attacks in the campus, Sidney becomes scared and paranoid and questions: who might be the serial-killer. “Scream 2” (1997) is an inferior sequel of the original movie, with the story of copycat from insane killers. The plot keeps the survivors of the original story in a different town. Dwight “Dewey Riley”, performed by David Arquette, has a sequela from the original story since his nerve was cut. The motive of one of the killers is silly. Like in the first movie. The gore plot is funny. My vote is six. Title (Brazil): “Pânico 2” (“Panic 2”) My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/ Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/10/25 Full Review Mickey A Scream 2 is just a masterpiece that is even better than the original in my opinion, it started with a brilliant and fun opening scene (best opening scene that I have ever seen in a (horror) movie). Wes Craven did again an amazing movie!! I just love this movie so much and it's fun that there are new things added too this movie so that it's not just the same as Scream 1, new and bigger locations, longer and better chase scenes, more kills... It's just the best Scream movie in the franchise. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/25 Full Review Jared M A solid follow-up to its groundbreaking predecessor, Scream 2 doesn’t quite live up to the suspense or shock value of the original—but it’s far from a bad film. The plot lacks the tight twists of the first, and many of the new characters are so forgettable that when they’re killed off, it barely registers. That said, it’s still one of my personal favorites and remains a must-watch in my yearly rotation. My favorite aspect of the sequel is how it builds on the love story between Dewey and Gale. Their chemistry was undeniable in the first film, and this entry gives that spark room to grow. The weakest moment, however, is the off-screen death of Randy Meeks—a fan favorite who deserved a proper farewell. His character had more to offer and should’ve gone out with impact. My MVP: Liev Schreiber. Though Cotton Weary is technically proven innocent, Schreiber plays him with such intensity and aggression that keeps the audience on edge. It was a great move giving him more screen time—he made every moment count. Film: Scream 2 (1997) Top-Performance: Liev Schieber as Cotton Weary Top Quote: “He’s exactly the type of man would like to bring home to your mother… if you had a mother.” -Mickey Altieri Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/27/25 Full Review Frank the Pug . A more than solid follow-up to the first film--and easily better than the horror sequels it's critiquing. There are a few plot holes, and the second act definitely drags a bit, but overall this is a strong second showing for the Scream franchise. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/25/25 Full Review Target C Used to love it, but couldn’t really get into it after rewatch. It comes off as boring, and the weakest of the original trilogy. Is it worth a watch? Only if you’re trying to get the full story.
