Scary Movie 2 isn't scary, funny-scary, or even just plain funny.

An act of nose-thumbing that never quite figures out how, or even where, to position its thumb.
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
Rotten
This time Wayans and company don't so much lampoon their targets as ineptly copy them.
Dennis Lim, Village Voice
Fresh
It's a lot more tightly focused than the first outing.
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post
Rotten
If you took out all the jokes about bodily fluids, the movie could run five minutes instead of 83, and we could all go home.
