lorcan-61881 Scary Movie 4 spoofs millions of films like 'The Grudge,War Of The Worlds,Saw,The Village as well as pop singer Michael Jackson'. The film once again follows Cindy who must go threw impossible tasks to save earth with her stupid friend Brenda. Unlike 3,this film was pretty bad. The jokes were actually brutal in this like it was literally just farts and stupid stuff that wasn't even funny. The best parody in this film was probably The Village(2004)which was a very good film and I will give this to Zucker,he did parody that film pretty well now. Anna Faris once again returned as stupid Cindy along with Regina Hall and Carmen Electra also appeared in this but not as Drew she was Holly,you know the girl from The Village who was blind,ya her. Scary Movie 4 was a disappointing installment to the hilarious franchise that's now just like every other crap spoof movie in town.

OllieSuave-007 Another entry in the Scary Movie series has Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris)finding out that the house she lives in is haunted by a little boy, and attempts to find out the truth behind his death. Meanwhile, aliens invade the Earth and threatens to destroy mankind.Spoofing a host of movies like Saw, War of the Worlds, Million Dollar Bay and The Grudge, this movie has a lot of gags, but I just didn't find them funny. The acting was pretty lame, especially Craig Bierko's melodramatic, overzealous and annoying character. It seemed the movie tried to get by in being funny with overly used crude and sexual humor. The only bright side of the film was the appearances of Shaquille O'Neal and Dr. Phil in the "Saw" spoof. Other than that, the rest of them movie was below average; the story didn't flow like Scary Movie 3, just meshed in pieces.Grade D-

kosmasp If you spoof movies, that weren't any good in the first place, you might have a problem. And that is one of the many issues this movie has here. While we won't get any "Airplane!" anytime soon, it's not wrong to assume that a movie connected to the Zucker name (and with Mr. Nielsen in it too) has some expectations attached to it.Almost none of them are met, and while it doesn't really commit the crime of trying to be funny, when it doesn't have to be (scenes that being played straight work better most of the time, if not always), the scenes it does deliver miss the mark. There might be a few silly and also nice scenes in between, but you really have to look hard for them. I wouldn't recommend watching this, as I wouldn't recommend you watching "The Village" either

Chrysanthepop 'Scary Movie 4' may not have been as entertaining as 'Scary Movie 3' but it's still way better than the first two movies. In all fairness, I probably would have enjoyed '4' more had I seen 'The Village', 'Worlds of the War', 'The Grudge', 'Saw II', 'Brokeback Mountain' etc but it was still fun and easy to figure out which films/ events (e.g. Tom Cruise jumping the couch on 'Oprah') were being referenced. The toilet humour is thankfully toned down even though there still is some gross humour, most of them taking place in The Village. The dialogues are hilarious. I enjoyed watching Dr. Phil kill himself. Of the cast, Anna Faris (an impressive impersonation of Sarah Michelle Geller and Naomi Watts), Craig Bierko (who does an excellent Tom Cruise impression), Molly Shannon, Michael Madsen, Leslie Nielson (in his usual comically wacky persona as the president of America) and Conchita Campbell are great. 'Scary Movie 4' proves once again that not having the Wayans brothers in their movie makes a huge (positive) difference.
