★★★☆☆ 3/5I loved the book, so I went into this with pretty high expectations. While there are some strong, suspenseful moments, it didn’t fully work for me. The plot feels stretched out, and after a while, it turns into yet another show about miserable rich people. I’d still recommend it to fans of the novel, but I’m not sure it’ll do much for new viewers.

★★★★☆ 4/5I’ve been a fan of this franchise for as long as I can remember, and honestly, I think this is the sequel Wes Craven would’ve smiled at. It really walks the line well, paying respect to the original while poking smart fun at modern horror trends and obsessive fandoms. The kills are sharp, the mystery holds up, and it’s the most fun I’ve had with a Ghostface movie in decades.

🎥 Directed by: Michael Pearce
🎭 Cast: Julianne Moore, Sydney Sweeney, Domhnall Gleeson, Kyle MacLachlan, Fiona Shaw, Edmund Donovan, Rebecca CreskoffOur Take
★★★★☆ 4/5Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney in a psychological thriller. That alone makes this something I have to see. I’ve always been drawn to slow-burn stories that focus more on people than on jump scares. With Apple TV Plus behind it, I’m expecting something intense and emotional. It feels like it’s going to explore the kind of choices a parent makes when they’re out of options.
