Before watching this one, I watched its predecessor, which received even worse ratings. I can see why, in a way, because 4 really went all out with its ridiculousness. While the opening bridge scene was exceptionally done and most of the subsequent deaths were interesting albeit not very "creative," there was still an outrageous personality to how some were filmed, eradicating any level of seriousness. The acting was okay, but the way two particular characters behaved - and not elaborating on Tony Todd's - was kind of annoying and unrealistic. How the movie tied into the original at the end was a nice touch, but they had to continue with the cartoonish barbarism and ruin it.
