As with the first film, Scream 2 is a gleeful takedown of scary movie conventions that manages to poke fun at terrible horror sequels without falling victim to the same fate. Read critic reviews

Its self-awareness has a brashness that can be enlivening.

The rest of the cast of disposable archetypes deadpanned about why ''sequels suck'' -- a particularly funny joke, since this one didn't.

Visceral, witty and appropriately redundant...

Clever parody of the sequel trend; once again we are treated to a movie mocking its own conventions. Some great comic -- and terrifying -- moments, but suffers for not being as original as the original.

If you liked Scream there's no reason you shouldn't like this sequel.

The film itself is stuck in a cycle of repetition, with slight variations.

A perfect horror sequel.

At least the movie-within-a-movie angle and the creative liberties taken with details in Gale's book are somewhat clever.
