Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Ploydsge just watch it!
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Stevieboy666 Of the first 5 Scary Movies this one oddly eluded me, having previously seen the other 4. Saw the original movie at the cinema and hated it so didn't exactly get off to a good start, and I'm certainly not a fan of the series. Anyway this one provides plenty of funny gags, has a cast of many familiar faces (especially being a Hip-Hop fan) & is short enough not to out stay it's welcome. A bit like my review!
Paul Evans Scary Movie three is arguably the last high rating parody movie made, what followed generally seemed to lack the sharp writing and down right laughs. The source material was perfect for parody, the best material arguably coming from The Ring and Signs. As always the film is relentless in its ability to offend every demographic without offering any genuine malice. Pamela Anderson starts off proceedings, I am a huge fan of hers, and her ability to poke fun at herself, a fun performance too. The best elements for me are The Ring parodies, each absolutely hilarious, Cindy's visit to Aunt ShaNeequa never fails to have me in tears laughing, the first time I saw that I could barely breathe.Fine performances, Anna Faris, Charlie Sheen, Leslie Nielsen and Simon Rex all equally hilarious, great timing. A shame Regina Hall seemed to have a smaller role.Hilarious.
Rickting Scary Movie 3 follows on from the disastrous Scary Movie 2, this time spoofing mainly The Ring and Signs. It involves a random plot to do with aliens coming to earth and the cursed videotape from The Ring with some random Matrix and 8 Mile related stuff thrown in. This one improves considerably on the second, and is to be honest my favourite of the series so far. It's certainly not great. Leslie Nielsen, though he's excellent as always, isn't in it enough while the jokes are somewhat hit and miss. In fairness, quite a few of them do (There's a certain scene in the middle which I don't want to spoil since it's that good which had me in utter hysterics) but others are too obvious, overstretched, inept or occasionally just a bit offensive. The movie is a mess (How did this cost $48 million?!) but perhaps that adds to its silly charm. It's pretty funny much of the time, even if it isn't particularly good in terms of plot or intelligence. However, as a collection of gags it delivers. Uneven, certainly, and endlessly juvenile, but not as insufferable as the second one and not as endlessly vulgar as the actually alright original movie.6/10
Michael_Elliott Scary Movie 3 (2003) * 1/2 (out of 4) The third film in the popular series finds Cindy (Anna Faris) working as a newswoman and discovering a mysterious video tape where if you watch it you get a phone call that you'll be dead in a week. Could this tape be connected to the farmer (Charlie Sheen) who has crop circles in his fields? SCARY MOVIE 3 will probably be enjoyed by those who enjoyed the first two but I must say that this here is another disappointing entry. I'm sure there are people out there who really love this type of film but I must admit that it's pretty much lost on me. For the most part this entire film just spoofs THE RING and SIGNS but it doesn't do either of them much justice. The stuff dealing with THE RING is never funny no matter what kind of joke they're going after. It could be the water coming out of the television, the psychic getting into a fight with the girl or anything else. Everything dealing with the spoof is rather unfunny and that's not a good thing when you consider that 60% of the running time is devoted to THE RING. The stuff with SIGNS really isn't any better but there are a few funny moments at the end once the aliens do arrive. Don't even get me started on the opening sequence with Pamela Anderson and Jenny McCarthy as it's just downright bad. The one big difference in this film is that we're given some pretty well-known people including Sheen. It's funny to see him in something like this but sadly he isn't given too much to work with. The same is true for Leslie Nielsen and the various cameos including George Carlin, Denise Richards, Queen Latifah and Eddie Griffin. The movie has a few funny moments scattered throughout but sadly the majority of the jokes just miss their mark.
