Biggest Swing

The film drops significantly from the praised film class sequel rules scene to the tedious middle section that reviewers found predictable and time-filling.

Scream 2 starts exceptionally strong with a widely praised opening sequence and maintains solid momentum through the first act's meta-commentary. The film significantly sags in the middle with reviewers finding the chase sequences predictable and tedious, before recovering somewhat in the finale despite mixed reactions to the killer reveals.
