The reviews are now coming in after the Embargo is lifted and they’re bad. Some of the lowest ratings of the entire Scream series on Rotten Tomatoes currently exist with critics lampooning the film such as The Daily Beast calling it shockingly terrible.
The
Hollywood Reporter‘s review was one of the more negative takes on the new film, writing, “The overfamiliarity would be more palatable if the dialogue were as fresh and funny as it was in the early installments, or if the kills were more creatively staged. But there’s a rote quality to the proceedings that makes Scream 7 feel like a slog despite its high body count and copious gore.”
The film is probably largely review-proof, with the movie expected to open around $60 million globally for the second-best start in the franchise..
But just because it may have a successful box office doesn’t mean it would be a good movie.
