Movie Review

Grade: B- Every couple of years a good spoof comes along just waiting to make fun of all of the pop stuff that has come out in recent years. While we're waiting for that one, there's Scary Movie 3, a moderately funny movie that provides some good laughs, if nothing else. Read the full movie review

Scary Movie 3 (2003), by Anthony

April 9, 2004

Not as good as the first, but definitely better than the second, [b]Scary Movie 3[/b] completely "disses" films like: -The Matrix Reloaded -Signs -The Ring -8 Mile and Bruce Almighty. OK: this movie might sound really stupid because it also spoofs dramas and other comedies, but trust me when I say that it *is* stupid. That's the whole purpose of the film. It's not vulgar/gross-out humor, but worth the 6 dollars. I saw it 4 times and will buy the DVD. The chemistry, the cameos and the Zucker make this film what it is: (for lack of a better word,) awesome. It was completely saved by Regina Hall and George Carlin, but I have to admit that the best parts were in the trailer. There were very few jokes I disliked (pedaphile priest, KKK hood and the beastiality joke). Though it's PG-13, it's very funny for a film that can't have more than 1 F-word. Somehow, it's **** 1/2 out of *****.
