Critics Consensus

Less a return to Scream's roots than a disappointing creative regression, this seventh entry draws little blood with its dull knife of a script.

Audience Says

Ghostface remains a reliable thrill, giving fans of the franchise much to relish in Scream 7, even if some plot beats feel comfortably familiar.

If there’s a single witty idea in the entire two-hour slog, I missed it.

There just isn’t that much meta commentary you can supply for horror franchises this deep into their existence, except that they mostly suck.

The true test of a Scream movie is the quality of the villain behind the Ghostface mask. By that metric, this instalment is thin gruel indeed.

But really, this shouldn’t be a wallow in trivia but a new reason to watch. "Scream 6" introduced new characters. Now it’s back to the beginning, where we can easily exit.

I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a good time, but I can’t say that the movie makes a case for more Scream movies.

Sidney should have been more protective than what was shown. Her characterization didn't make any sense given what she's been through. The kills were good and overall the movie was entertaining. It just wasn't very memorable.

Decent movie. Not as good as previous because of the reveal. I think I could have written it better to get a 90% rating.

The movie was all over the place. Felt like they had no clue where they wanted to take the plot. It was decent, but that ending was ass.

This Scream was full of nostalgia in such a good way! For me, Sidney being a wife and mother now brought a whole new set of feelings. One kill stands out to me as a top teir "Terrifier" style kill ,and it was awesome! I really liked this movie and I'm standing by my 5 stars. We all love a good Scream twist... this one was very fitting for keeping up with current times, but I cant help feeling a smidge let down. I can't explain that any further without giving away spoilers.
