SCREAM: This movie bored the pants off of me. All the self reflecting winks at the genre just served to pull me out of the realm of movie magic, instead of drawing me in. There were no character development to speak of. Then again, I shouldn't be surprised, after all there were no interesting characters at all! To top it off, it wasn't the least bit scary.

I wanted to fast forward to the end to find out if the whole thing had been a movie within a movie, involving a screenwriter's dream sequence brought about by a case of indigestion. No luck, I should've followed my gut and walked out.

Rating: 2

Rating system:
