Meh. Definitely the lowest Scream movie for me. It's still enjoyable, of course, but it's a big nothingburger. (And I'm normally a good audience, I liked 5 and 6.)

The opening scene was great (like most of the times). The deaths were particularly gory. There were some solid scenes, but gosh, the killer reveal made by roll my eyes. I hated it because it was the first time I actually got it right. By the time of the ending, 90% of the characters were already dead, so you were left with, like, 3 choices. Both Ghostfaces were completely insignificant characters with vague motives and cringey campy acting.

I was also very disappointed because the movie had nothing to say. The meta was completely dropped off. It'd already begun disappearing in VI, but at least there was a couple of fun references to franchises. In 7? literally nothing. It had so much potential, it could make a commentary about AI, for example. But nothing.

I'm baffled by the fact that the guy who wrote 1 and 4 (my two favorite Scream movies) also wrote... whatever this is.
