Scream 4

Le bon vieux Scream est de retour et je suis content de pouvoir enfin trouver un film d'horreur en rouge ici sur FilmBooster, parce qu’on ne peut pas dire qu’ils abondent. Pour moi, ce genre est une option parfaite dans la catégorie détente et ce quatrième volet de la série culte est très réussi. Allez Wes, vivement un cinquième ! (05/06/2011)

Hayden Panettiere avec sa coiffure de Lady Hitchcock est l'élément le plus lumineux du film pour moi :) Sinon, c'est un film juteux, surpassant les précédents volets avec un rythme plus élevé de meurtres, de blagues et de références cinématographiques (que ce soit dans les dialogues ou sur les affiches de films aux murs). Dommage qu'il soit sorti onze ans après le troisième volet, ne faisant que rappeler nostalgiquement la célèbre série. La faim actuelle du public pour les films d'horreur est déjà différente.

After a very long hiatus, the regular fourth film has indeed arrived. It’s not a reboot, but a normal old-world sequel. And while no one would have expected it, the film works well as a standalone horror film and as a new installment in a long-running franchise. The film series Stab got its seventh sequel, and the times have changed, but the main thing has remained the same. The main trio works well together. Sidney has written a new book, Out of the Darkness, and it serves as the perfect reason to come home. The younger generation can't do without their phones anymore, everyone is online 24/7, and the dynamics of killing are changing. Excellent supporting roles are played by Shenae Grimes, Anna Paquin, and Kristen Bell. Of the newcomers, Hayden Panettiere and Emma Roberts are very good. And it looks like there will be a regular fifth film after the series. Maybe in 2022. (15/04/2011)

A pleasant meeting with old friends and a much better film than could be expected after My Soul to Take; I liked it as much as the first part. Craven and Williams deliver a pretty effective reflection on the last decades in horror, without altering the spirit of the franchise. It’s still playful and full of references to the genre, some of which are fun, while others are tense. It also makes quite some sense and has a pinch of social satire. I have to say that without that “alternative ending” I would have been shocked and would have admired the courage of the creators, not only to reboot the series, but actually to update it to a 2.0 version. As it is, I’m “only” a satisfied viewer. (14/04/2011)

0% fear, 100% playful (sub)genre tongue in cheek. If Craven and Williamson hadn’t missed the European train, or else if they had had the courage to work with it, this could have been better. Much better, if they had left out the superfluous “alternative ending". They aren’t resuscitating the American teenager slasher with this, they are simply proving that it is long since dead and can’t be approached otherwise than by making a comedy. (14/04/2011)
