Scary Movie 2 isn't scary, funny-scary, or even just plain funny.

Consensus: Instead of being funny, this gross-out sequel plays like a sloppy, rushed-out product.

Reviews for Scary Movie 2
Top CriticThe film had eleven writers. I don't see why it needed any. It's unstructured, plotless, and even the truly funny moments are merely juvenile stabs in the dark.
10/28/01
More of the same...only less funny.
10/10/01
Filme producto de la excesiva comercialización que tuvo su predecesor
10/08/01
If you haven't seen the target film, not only is it not funny, it becomes totally pointless.
09/10/01
It's the wackiness of the whole thing that makes it work.
08/09/01
Yes, there are laughs, but they're sporadic, with a lot of the jokes being regurgitated from the original.
07/30/01
Lacks the humor, invention and auto-critique of the first film.
07/30/01
fast-paced, sloppy, and pretty dumb, but it's over quickly
07/30/01
"worth a rental"
07/29/01
The proceedings mainly revolve around sexual and bathroom humour, and – depending on your tastes – this will either quickly grow tiresome, or will entertain you endlessly.
07/19/01
Never has a movie franchise fallen so far so fast.
07/16/01
Choppily edited and obviously rushed into theaters to make a quick, tidy profit.
07/16/01
An act of nose-thumbing that never quite figures out how, or even where, to position its thumb.
07/16/01
Top CriticThere are seven writers credited for Scary Movie 2. That's approximately two writers per laugh.
07/16/01
Bodily functions and fluids serve as a thin clothesline for cheap laughs.
07/10/01
This time Wayans and company don't so much lampoon their targets as ineptly copy them.
07/10/01
Top CriticIt should be said that Scary Movie fails on most of its essential levels, and therefore, is only worth seeing to support Tim Curry's and David Cross' careers.
07/09/01
"This repulsive, vulgar, disgusting, over-the-top horror spoof is early candidate for my WORST of 2001 list. It's slapdash, not slapstick."
07/09/01
The whole thing reeks of sequelitis, with an emphasis on the rude and crude.
