Scary Movie 2 (2001)
3/10
If a critic is just one person, then a review is just one person's opinion

Comedy is a lot easier to judge than most other forms of cinema, it can easily be measured by how many times you laugh. I suppose drama, could be judged by how much it "gets" to you, a horror on how much it scares you etc. Most of you will know what this film is about and what to expect, parodies of recent films and some very low brow humour, so I won't go into detail giving it a proper review, but I'll just say if that sounds up your street, and it's on the TV one night, check it out. If you aren't likely to find a string of gay, sex, toilet and the like jokes entertaining, then you should avoid. I fell into the latter category and still decided to watch it, and it got a couple of laughs out of me and a few smiles, mainly from the exchanges between the guy in the wheelchair and the guy with the withered hand, the guy with the withered hand in general, the Big Daddy Kane nod, and the high tech devices they used for communicating near the end of the film. There is a nice bit of comic acting in here too, and as with most parody movies, you will also get more out of it if you've seen the films it spoofs.

Unless you're a fan of general toilet humour, be aware of what you're getting into.
