Advantages: Fun in parts. An excelent cameo to watch out for.

Disadvantages: The same old trick again an again....

I managed to get a free ticket for Scream 3 – something I’m glad about as I wouldn’t have wanted to have paid hard earned cash to see it.

Scream was pretty good, Scream 2 – more of the same but still pretty enjoyable, but Scream three is taking the joke a step too far. I know it’s supposed to be a self parody, but not only are the same tricks from the first two films played again, they played over and over and over….. The shock factor and even amusement soon starts to fade when we see the killer defeated only to disappear from under the heroes noses for what seems like the 17th time.

It does have enjoyable, funny and even startling moments, but in the end the films repetitiveness soon starts to become tiresome. If you haven’t seen the first two films, then maybe it will seem a bit fresher. The high point of the film for fans of the films of Kevin Smith is the cameo by his characters Jay and Silent Bob – more exciting than the rest of the film put together.
