1.5/5
"There's a fine line between funny and just plain sick; this movie goes way beyond that line."
Filmcritic.com
Blake French
"Most of the gags have to do with sex, none of it makes any sense and no one cares. And if it's not so surprising or clever as the first film, well, that’s just predictable isn't it?"
Nitrate Online
Cynthia Fuchs
2/4
"Choppily edited and obviously rushed into theaters to make a quick, tidy profit."

"An insufferable hodgepodge of phallic and fecal humor."

"There are seven writers credited for
Scary Movie 2
. That's approximately two writers per laugh."

"Yes, there are laughs, but they're sporadic, with a lot of the jokes being regurgitated from the original."
Film Blather
Eugene Novikov
D
"Dull, obvious and unremittingly vulgar."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
2/4
"Aside from a few genuinely funny gags, this motion picture represents an 80-minute exercise into tedium that does little more than re-hash the first outing."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
2/4
"fast-paced, sloppy, and pretty dumb, but it's over quickly"
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
"It's just unfortunate that so much of it keeps beating a dead comedy horse from time to time."
Screen It!
Jim Judy
4/10
"The only horror in this film is its lame-ass script!"

"...it does have one redeeming attribute: brevity."

"Filme producto de la excesiva comercialización que tuvo su predecesor"
Moviola

"The scary part is that a sequel was made."

"It should be said that Scary Movie fails on most of its essential levels, and therefore, is only worth seeing to support Tim Curry's and David Cross' careers."
Cinerina
Karina Montgomery
"If you didn't like the first one, stay away, but if you got a few good chuckles out of it, you'll get more of the same with the sequel. I guess it's a matter of personal (bad) taste."
Montreal Film Journal
Kevin N. Laforest

"just goes through the motions of parodying one movie after another without any apparent stab at wit or humor"
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
1.5/4
"The creators of
Scary Movie 2
have forgotten one crucial fact about the horror genre--for every
Scream 2
there are twenty
Blair Witch 2
s."
Mark Reviews Movies

0/4
"That the first film's primary target/model was
Scream
and that this one's is
The Haunting
says everything about its creative bankruptcy. "
TheMovieReport.com
Michael Dequina
1.5/4
"The movie plays just like the rush job it is."
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
2/5
"What we have is a lot of fake and lazy attempts at humor."
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow
1/5
"It's just terrible, with long stretches in which the sea of writers don't even try to insert any humour, followed by an attempted joke that doesn't work on any level."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline

"You're better off renting the original and getting yourself a pizza...."

"More of the same...only less funny."
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
""This repulsive, vulgar, disgusting, over-the-top horror spoof is early candidate for my WORST of 2001 list. It's slapdash, not slapstick.""
