Lacking the satirical bite of the first Scream... this is mere pastiche that doesn't even wink at what it is pointlessly xeroxing from the past.
MaryAnn Johanson, Film.com
Overview

Anyone feeding into this nostalgia is yearning for a kind of warm and fuzzy horror that's wholly irrelevant today.
Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out New York
Rotten
Green's efforts to strike a balance between knowing humour and no-holds-barred horror are stymied by an erratic tone: a slow, talky build-up gives way to a soggy middle section and a messy, all-stops-out finale.
Nigel Floyd, Time Out
Rotten
It's just not that scary (even the gory sequences are predictable and boring). And it certainly isn't clever or funny.
Jonathan Perry, Boston Globe
Rotten
Horror without suspense is like sex without love: you can appreciate the technicalities, but ultimately there's no reason to care.
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
