But the original does fare better thanks to its more acerbic wit and darker tone.

Trying hard to impress the fans of the fans of the franchise. The soundtrack and performances shine. Not even close to the brilliance of the original but good enough to entertain despite its lack of character development with the new figures. Part of the plot and direction were slightly confusing, still Scream 2 delivers the gore and laughs to be a …
