Movie Info
While star Anna Faris returns for the third film in the Scary Movie series, the power behind the camera has shifted from the Wayans brothers to one of the Zucker brothers. The Zucker in question is David Zucker, and he's brought along his partner in movie-parody crime, Leslie Nielsen. This time around, aim is taken at such horror blockbusters as Signs and The Ring, while films of other genres, including Independence Day, 8 Mile, and The Matrix, are also lampooned. The plot finds Cindy (Faris)

Just middling funny, with no truly memorable high points and a sum impact that goes poof! before you've left the parking garage.
Zucker's slapstick may have the satiric delicacy of a chainsaw lobotomy, but it hasn't harmed the franchise.
Too often even Scary Movie 3's cleverest bits degenerate from affectionate satire into mere imitation of their sources.
A hit-or-miss affair, but the gags that connect really connect.
Rebounds nicely from its sophomore misfire, giddily inbreeding the plots of a half-dozen box office overachievers-from The Ring to 8 Mile -- until the result assumes a comically unstoppable life of its own.
... this genre is pretty much dead.
This PG-13 has R-rated stuff.
It's better than the second film...
Be afraid, be very afraid.
Basically, any movie that suffers from a lack of Charlie Sheen has got problems.
As with Scary Movie parts one and two, you pays your money, you gets your laughs, and you won't remember a thing in a few months.
Fun, stupid stuff with no sense of a narrative arc or plot structure ... but hey, it made me laugh anyway.
This is just a stab in the dark, the wildest of guesses on my part, but I don't think Michael Jackson would recommend "Scary Movie 3."
If you're looking for anything other than a parody clipshow, you won't find it.
Scary Movie 3 turns out to be an odd combination of the old-fashioned and the hip. I found it too awkward a combination to be entirely successful.
This is not one of those occasions when you feel like giving Zucker an even break.
The film's comic philosophy might best be summed up this way: If you think it's funny seeing Sheen bang his head against a lamp once, then it's twice as funny to see him do it twice.
The only thing more worn than the humour is a tired-looking Nielsen.
Leave your brain in the foyer, and your taste in the toilets.
Algumas gags funcionam, mas numa raz�o de cerca de 30%, eu diria. Portanto, talvez esta produ��o valha o pre�o do ingresso - isto �, caso voc� consiga 70% de desconto.
Often in spectacular bad taste, but like its predecessors it made me laugh hard and often.
Delivers plenty of decent laughs in its short running time.
The latest in this popular spoof franchise is funnier than Scary Movie 2 (which means I came close to laughing at least once.)
It's time to stop, I'm afraid.
