This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

I actually didn't hate Scream 3, which appears to be a controversial opinion among fans of the franchise. Hey, I'd even go as far as saying it's GOOD. As a big fan of Neve Campbell, I do absolutely adore Sidney, but it was refreshing having the movie with a split focus, seeing in more detail the adventures of Dewey and Gale. I also loved to hate the new characters - Parker Posey as Jennifer was absolutely hilarious and I thought the inclusion of the Stab 3 cast was a genius move. Even the ending wasn't that bad, and while the reveal of the killer felt a bit weak due to his Roman's irelevance as a character, if you will yourself to believe it, plotholes in the first movie can be explained away by this big reveal. Personally, I'm not sure how you could dislike this movie. It's still funny, despite Williamson's lack of input on the screenplay, and it's different - something the franchise is known for that I think it delivered on again. If it was the same as the first two it'd have little impact, and this shake-up of the formula was well done. While maybe it's not as solid a film as the two before it (the deaths certainly aren't as memorable), as a Scream nerd it was still totally enjoyable, and provided a good end to the 'trilogy'.

Scream 3 is watchable, and is a good film. It's still scary just like the other two movies, but you could also get a sense that it doesn't take itself too seriously at times. The only issue I had with this movie is that the main character (Sidney) didn't get much screen time as you would've hoped. It's definitely the weakest of the trilogy, but they're all good nonetheless. Nothing more to say really other than the fact that it's a fitting end to a trilogy. I'll give it an average rating.

Sidney has surrendered to the woods, her whereabouts are unknown to everyone but Dewey, and Wes Craven. After a number of murders that seem to be related to the Woodsboro case take place on the set of Stab 3, Sid comes to Hollywood to be terrorised, find out more about her mother's death, and try to figure out how much of the barrel has been scraped making this film.....So as the videogram from Randy states that with the third part of the trilogy all bets are off and no one is safe, this is just a subliminal message to the viewer stating that there is no chore nice with this film, but you have to have a trilogy, and it's going to make a shedload any so who cares about narrative?After a quite impressive opener, it's straight to dumpsville with the narrative. Sidney gets involved for no good reason, as do the other surviving members of the cast, and in hindsight, would any of the really have gotten so involved? Just get in a car and drive far away until the killer is caught.But we can't do that, because we have to find out who is behind all this banality and what their motive is.And if it wasn't one of the poorest Scooby Doo endings I've seen, I'll re watch it with directors commentary.The cast look bored, and it all feels stale and flat, the exact opposite of the first film which reset the clock for horror films.It's a shame though because somewhere there is a good film waiting to get out, but the writing is terrible.

The crew returns to make this horror franchise a trilogy. This time, the killer is stalking Hollywood and the stars of a meta movie Stab 3 based on events of Sydney Prescott (Neve Campbell) and company. Gale Weathers (Courtney Cox) and Dewey Riley (David Arquette) also return as wealthy consultants for the films and amateur detectives. The killer starts with Cotton Weary (Liev Schreiber) and works their way through the actors in the new film in the order that they die in the script.The movie expounds on trilogies and skewers the shallowness of film stars. Randy (Jamie Kennedy) is revived in a video to explain the rules for the third part and this means that things from the past will come back to haunt the main characters. The plot does come around and connect with the other films though the final explanation comes off as a little flimsy. Wes Craven embraces the campiness of this slasher flick a bit more than the first two.Check out more of this review and others at swilliky.com
