I enjoyed this movie from start up until around the last 20 minutes with the reveal that felt way too Scream 2 - Just like Scream felt way too...well, Scream (1996). The Intro was very creative, kills were ok-ish but the tally isnt high enough when you think about it. I did enjoy the growth of the four survivors of the last movie and this time around you do really care for them. However, I was really let down by the last movie partially because of the misleading trailer with quotes like 'this one feels different' - only for it not to be. The trailer for this movie was also misleading with the 'Theres never been a ghostface like this'. Hasnt there?!
Despite the flaws with this movie (and marketing) the film does have some great tense chase scenes, and also drops of humour here and there. It does well to try new things but often relies on the same old tropes the originals used both for scares and story. That being said, although the final showdown is disappointed beyond belief, the rest of the movie is enjoyable. 7/10.
