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."  DustinPutman.com  Dustin Putman

1/4
"An insufferable hodgepodge of phallic and fecal humor."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

D-
"There are seven writers credited for Scary Movie 2. That's approximately two writers per laugh."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

C
"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!"  JoBlo's Movie Emporium  JoBlo

3/10
"...it does have one redeeming attribute: brevity."  DVDTown.com  John J. Puccio

1/4
"Filme producto de la excesiva comercialización que tuvo su predecesor"  Moviola  Jorge Avila Andrade

0/5
"The scary part is that a sequel was made."  3BlackChicks Review  Kamal 'The Diva' Larsuel

2
"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

D
"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 2s."  Mark Reviews Movies  Mark Dujsik

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

D
"You're better off renting the original and getting yourself a pizza...."  Reeling Reviews  Robin Clifford

4/10
"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.""  www.susangranger.com  Susan Granger
