Scary Movie 5 Reviews
IGN Movies
If it's even possible, Scary Movie 5 is worse than its predecessors, reaching all new heights of stupidity and fall-flat comedy.

ScreenRant
Scary Movie 5 is a dumbed down and hollow version of the franchise formula - resulting in an idiotic (and unamusing) attempt at parody that is tedious not fun.

A film composed almost entirely of jokes that were much funnier when you read them on Twitter years ago.

If I ever have to watch another Scary Movie film, I'll give up on writing, cinema, and society forever.

Surely we have a responsibility to audiences in need of laughter, and surely we can do better than this.

It's crude, gross and probably wishes it was offensive but comes across as just lazy, limp and unfunny.

Another pointless exercise that only served to make me deeply examine why comedy was ever funny. Next time, I'd rather just laugh.

Even if you chuckle occasionally at this, it's hard to see how anyone would want to pay to see it.

It says a lot about the film that the only half-laughs to be had come from Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan.
Scary Movie 5 must be some kind of psychological experiment. Perhaps the filmmakers sat in a lab, rubbing their temples while wondering aloud how awful they could make a movie and still score at the box office.

I have been to funerals a LOT less sad than this laughless 85 minutes. (Complete Content Details for Parents also available)

These movies grow shorter and less funny by the year.

This is the sort of movie where you feel bad for Sheen and Lohan, because they hadn't actually hit rock bottom until they agreed to appear in it.
Screen International
The "Scary Movie" franchise has never been known for its highbrow comedy, but this latest installment feels especially juvenile and pointless.
A hate crime against cinema, a ringing indictment of the depths commercialism will go to in search of the lowest common denominator.

This vapid, vulgar insult to the intelligence couldn't possibly have been tested on any focus groups. Can we all now agree that we've reached the cinematic saturation point with the rapidly-expiring, Scary Movie franchise?

Like so much of this whole series, the mere mention of a familiar pop culture figure or title is supposed to be hilarious.

A pitiful grab bag of awful with a torturous sense of humor, crash landing a formerly inoffensive franchise into hostile Friedberg/Seltzer territory.
