fans out there and welcome back to my channel we are back discussing the sixth entry in one of my
favorite horror franchises of all time and that is Scream Six and today we're talking about The Good
the Bad and the Ugly and I'm gonna let you know if it's worth checking out in theaters we'll be
discussing that and much more in today's spoiler free review but before we get into it let's start
the conversation in the comments let me know if you all are a fan of this franchise number
one and how excited were you before seeing this film and once you've seen Scream 6 what'd you
think about it let's talk about what worked for you what didn't work your favorite moments least
favorite moments your thoughts on the kills the characters the Ghost Face Killer New York City
has a new location and where would you like to see this franchise go next and if you've seen all six
of these movies how would you rank them from worst to best let's have those conversations below and
if you all enjoyed today's review consider hitting that thumbs up as well as sharing this video with
with that being said let's start off with my positives I want to talk about the returning
directors and that is from the radio silence team I'm talking about Tyler and Matt after seeing
screen five and now having seen Scream Six there's a level of appreciation that I see from them
there's an attention to detail there's a passion there's a love that they have for this franchise
and a respect to what's come before them but that doesn't take away from their creative Endeavors
it doesn't take away from their creative Liberties to this franchise and they're breaking some rules
and doing so which I appreciate and speaking of breaking rules going back to screen five how they
kind of broke the tradition of killing a character with an opening sequence which I love with Tara
they do something with this opening sequence that makes it one of my favorite moments of this movie
but also one of my favorite opening sequels of this entire franchise and without giving too much
away without giving too much context in that the idea that's implemented in this opening sequence
to me was so interesting so unique so fascinating it's something you've never seen in a scream
opening especially from the perspective in which you see it from and also it's pretty violent which
violence is the word that I would use to describe this Ghost Face Killer as they say in the trailer
you've never seen a ghost face killer like that and they really meant that the ghost face killing
this film is on a mission to kill the carpenter sisters and anyone that gets in their way you're
dead next this Ghost Face Killer doesn't care if you have a room full of people if it's Daytime
Nighttime if it's in the middle of a bodega or if it's even on a damn train you're gonna feel
that ghost face presence and when it comes to the kills in this movie they're terrifying the
actual Ghostface Killer is frightening at times it's very suspenseful it provides us with some
of the best kills of this franchise and there's just so intense they're so gory at points and I
just loved every moment of that but also speaking of kind of new additions to this franchise The
Welcome to the New York City location which to me is definitely a character within itself and it
take away the kind of facade of being of a small town in Woodsboro and now going to this large city
which with that large city environment you kind of add the idea of where will the killers strike
next because it's such a large playing field that they have and also the idea that we're in New York
so the crime is obviously kind of everyday matter of effect type situation where people don't really
care if you're getting killed or Screaming that adds more attention to the moment so
I do appreciate what the New York City location brought to this sixth film which kind of brings
me into talking about the performances and I want to start off by talking about the core four I'm
talking about Sam Tara Mindy and Chad who I've come to really care for and I appreciate the bond
they've grown especially seeing this movie based on the events that happen in screen five and the
film addresses that shared trauma that they have and it plays into the actual narrative especially
from the carpenter sisters a lot of good character stuff going on with Tara and Sam put in a moment
to focus on Jenna Ortega and her performance as chair era she is someone that's trying to move
past what happened in Scream five she's trying to go to college and not allowing the Ghost Face
Killer to haunt her memories and she doesn't want to become just known for that and then
paralleling that to what's going on with Melissa as Sam who's trying to be this overprotective
sister at the same time she's trying to shake the stigma of being a daughter of a serial killer so
I thought the carpenter sisters I really enjoyed them at five but I really enjoyed their Dynamic
much more in Scream Six and just kind of keying in like I said I love General Ortega she's great
in this film but I really want to emphasis put an emphasis on the performance that we get from
Melissa in this film shouldn't go underappreciated because not taking anything away from the other
performances but for me Melissa gave the best performance in this film because she has so
many different ranges of emotions in this movie from being the victim to caring for her sister
and her friends to not having all the answers to how they're going to take down this new ghost face
to just straight up being a badass in this movie right like when push comes to shove and scream 6
you want to be on Sam's side and I liken it to what we saw with Lori Strode in 2018 Halloween
how Lori was just so prepared for Michael and the same could be said about Sam with ghost face so I
really appreciate her growth her development and the carry over from screen five into this new one
with her mental state and just exploring her and her father and all that stuff that she learned in
screen five into this one I really appreciate it so the carpenter systems were great the twins I'm
a big fan of them Chad is essentially the Dewey of the crew and I really enjoy what he brings
to the table but Mindy she's just a fan favorite I love that character Jasmine's just perfect in
the role so they're great I can't skip out on the OG making a return and also a fan favorite let's
start off with Gail weathers played by Courtney Cox to me she's solid in this movie she's just as
effectively used as she was in Scream five and she has one of the more intense scenes in this movie
from being honest so she was fine and Kirby again fan favorite I'm a big fan of her rolling screen
four and if I'm being honest with you all when we or introduced or as I say reintroduce the Kirby
and scream 6. it started off a little stiff to me but I will say as the film progressively went
on she became the Kirby that I have loved from screen four so performances were really solid
across the board I gotta mention before we kind of get into my criticisms I've always been a fan
of how the screen films have had something to say about the current state of horror and slashers and
from Scream 4 5 now into six having to offer some commentary on the online toxicity and the fandom
there's a lot of subliminal fire shot at people that have some just ridiculous things to say about
the franchise and just taking personal shots at the actors there's a lot of shots at those fans
as I appreciate it but I'm just so impressed by how they're able to navigate those type of plots
into his main narrative and I enjoy the movie focusing on the characters mental state and
addressing them facing your trauma rather than running away from it so those that particular
theme was very prominent and pretty well woven into the narrative so those are my main Pros
let's get into my negatives here because this film isn't perfect by any means now green just like any
other franchise or any other horror film has as good amount of tropes that it plays into this
storyline but just because I know they're going to be there doesn't mean I can't acknowledge them
or notice them because there are some moments in this film as in other screen movies even the
best ones where the characters make some very illogical dumb idiotic decisions that can be
a bit frustrating again I'm very aware of them and I know what to expect amount of points but
it still doesn't take away from me saying that was pretty dumb for the character to do that right so
that's a small little nitpick but getting really into the things that bothered me there is a lot
of plot conveniences that I've seen this film a lot of plot holes that are very huge as well as
there is a huge thick level of plot armor on certain characters now obviously I'm a fan of
this franchise and I love certain characters and I can get it right you can tell that they know
know which characters the fans like and I can appreciate that but at the same time it kind of
held back the stakes because again the whole thing of these rules being broken especially
in this film hey anyone and everyone can die at any point but then when you see the plot armor
on some character he's like oh man just lean into it if you're gonna go there go there so that was
something that bothered me and speaking of being bothered I'm not gonna lie I talked about the good
performances I won't single them out I'll just say all of the newcomers to this film to me were very
one note very flat I weren't I wasn't a fan of the performances from the new cast so that's something
that bothered me but also something that comes to mind is it felt a bit repetitive at points
like been there done that especially when you've seen all of the films and again I appreciate the
acknowledgment of the Easter eggs and all the call backs but there were some very similar
plot lines that felt like Scream 2 and felt like Scream 3 and they felt very recycled and one last
thing before we wrap it up I said it a little bit earlier I love the Ghost Face Killer in
action but I can't say the same about the reveal of who the actual Ghostface Killer is
and the reasons behind it felt a little bit repetitive and also there's some plot holes
within their reasoning that I won't explain here but that also sums out how I feel about
the actual conclusion in the third Act of the film to me there's some great moments in the
third act but it is very messy in its execution so those are my main Pros those are my main cons
before I give you all my overall score and let you know if it's worth checking out if you stuck
around to this point in review I appreciate you just a friendly reminder if you're enjoying and
appreciating review hit the thumbs up share this video and consider subscribing to the Channel
with that being said overall I believe the die hards of this franchise will have a killer time
in this film as I did enjoying a lot of these moments there's so many good callbacks there's
some Great Kills there's a really solid ghost face in this film and just removing my fandom
like I mentioned there were some plot holes there's too many plot conveniences in the third
act I wish was just executed better but in the day I think I got out of what I wanted from the screen
film which was a fun time some Great Kills a new environment and there's more to be said in this
franchise so I'm gonna give Scream 6 a 3.5 out of five and I recommend you all give it a watch and
when you do let me know your thoughts on it I got some more screen content on the way from you all
