Scary Movie 4

The fourth movie in the Scary Movie trilogy, this one not as good as number 3 but better than 1 and 2 (not saying much for this last). Once again it's spoofing the other movies of the day, the main theme being centered around a War of the World invasion in which the tripods look every bit as good as in Spielberg's film (and no doubt costing a lot less), with The Grudge and Saw thrown in. Also once again the plot is only a theoretical entity, just enough to paste the skits together.

While there are some good laughs, they are quickly forgotten in the wake of too much and unneccesary potty humor. About the only good laughs I can remember are all in the trailers, because after that I'm still picturing a urin-soaked sponge bath; definitely more 'yuk' then 'ha ha'. Drop the potty mouth and this film could get up to something average.

So overall, is it worth it? Well, I've already forgotten all the good parts and a matinee costs sevel dollars nowadays; you be the judge.
