In Two Minutes:

criteria

initial expectations

(3) The previews turned me on but I wasn't sure if I wanted to go all the way, fearing that I'd seen the best parts. So I braced myself for a disappointing anticlimax.

(4) The trailers were too irresistible...too funnnyyy! WUZZZUPPP! I had some trepidation though, for many a time, a trailer spoils all the good parts already.

pace

(4) The spontaneity and surprise at every turn made for a fast movie. But then again, it was only 82 minutes long. So maybe that's why it seemed so short. 'Cuz it really was.

(5) Joke to joke faster than you can say Scary Movie. One gag bombs... who cares? You're on to the next!

plot/story

(3) Um…There wasn't one, really. What there was, was a mockery of another plot. And the mockery worked most of the time. So this plot based on another plot was a pretty good plot…although it's not really a plot. What?

(5) We've seen it before in Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer...But of course, this is a spoof, and a good one at that! How do you critique a spoof?!?

cast/acting

(3) No Oscar performances or anything, but I gotta give props to these people who were able to keep a straight face during filming.

(5) The keyword here is spoof! The parts require over-acting, goofing off and just having a blast...That's exactly what you get! :)

good stuff

(4) Like I said, lots of skin and sex organs. Heheheheh. Um. Yah.

(5) A hot chick...umm...Shannon, if you haven't figured it out...AND lotsa laughs?!? WUZZZUUPPPP!!!

overall

(4) I give this movie a big, fat four. I don't regret seeing it a full price…and at one in the morning, for that matter!

(5) I thought the trailers would have ruined the movie...but I was wrong. There's a lot more gags to go around! This movie surpassed my initial expectations!
