(PARAMOUNT FILMS).

One of the most anticipated releases of 2022 is shout out, the fifth installment in the original Wes Craven franchise. What else, It is the first film in which the director is not immersed, as a consequence of his death in 2015.. Kevin Williamson, screenwriter of the original film, as well as the second and fourth films, also does not participate, leaving it in the hands of James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick. First of all, the film does not seek to be a continuation of usage, but to become a critic in itself around the productions that emerged from nostalgia. Therefore, the film’s greatest strength lies in its power to laugh at it, fulfilling many of the common aspects of the horror saga. Therefore, It is a pleasure and a gift for the spectators, who rediscover one of the cinematographic universes most loved by the public.

Thanks to that, a large part of the public forgives those weaknesses that are presented in a script immersed in simplicity, sometimes too obvious. Even so, there’s that tension that allows for a certain mystery, along with the combination of teen comedy that has always surrounded previous films.. But there is a certain lack of projection for this new generation, since the way they are introduced in the story goes a little unnoticed. Consequently, despite memorable moments, a more direct connection is not established between the protagonists and the spectators. Despite this, it is sublimated with the participation of the original trio, which is the biggest claim of the fans. As mentioned above, it’s a movie to enjoy and be entertained, the return to the past is prized, but it doesn’t triumph in its contemporary resolution.

this version of shout out of 2022 recover Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox and David Arquette, which revert to Sidney Prescott, Gale Weathers-Riley, and Dewey Riley, respectively. First of all, Campbell is brilliant, the way she grounded her character in film history makes her the perfect horror heroine. He hasn’t lost an ounce of charisma, in addition to enhancing that warrior character and a consolidated presence on screen. After, cox surprised by a notorious lack of expressiveness on his face, which leads a performance that is resolved more by what it represents, than by what it actually does. This contrasts with Arquette, which does a wonderful job, being one of the most appreciated performances on screen. Even so, with its pros and cons, seeing the three actors as part of the cast of this edition is a delight.

The new generation is led by Melissa Barrera, which surprised in some scenes, but remains a bit more static in others. Therefore, it does not achieve a more attractive magnetism, which other performers have achieved in previous sequels. With that, it performs its work in the right measure, but it is not a captivating performance. it’s not the same with Jack Quaid, making the scene his own and becoming one of the most valued actors in the film. Furthermore, highlight the works of Dylan Minnette, Jenna Ortega and Mason Gooding, who follow a path that has worked for them in other jobs. On the other hand, Jasmin Savoy Brown and Mikey Madison Offer Effective Acting Work and with a charisma that surprises the public.

In 2022, the mythical opening scene of shout out, being one of the most important brands in the franchise. To start, It should be appreciated that it keeps the symbology of the saga intact, bringing back the 1996 film. In this way, it becomes a bridge between die-hard fans and new viewers who may not know this movie series. The pacing is fluid, weaves that intrigue efficiently, so that the viewer is aware of what is happening on the screen.. Despite the various plot twists that can occur, there is a good management of the merely gory along with moments of absolute hilarity. by which, it can be said that the assembly obtained a more than favorable result.

Even so, there is certainly a more predominant rawness in the execution of some scenes. In other words, the violence becomes a little more explicit in some cases, which shows a new path around the identity stamp that the feature film intends to give. So it’s possible that something of this nature has already occurred in the first two films, but in this one he adds even more detail to those scenes. Later, the scenario demonstrates an excellent work of art direction, which recreates different scenarios that are already a classic of the saga. The finale contains scenes that will be a real delight for most viewers, in terms of its technical achievement. However, they are not supported by a slightly less worked resolution of the narrative part. Even so, the complete result is satisfactory.

shout out returns to 2022 with heavy doses of nostalgia, which are sublimated by a self-tribute to some of the most classic features of the franchise. So this factor is what contributes the most to the film. However, it falters in the presentation of a new generation, which cannot consolidate its presence on the screen. Therefore, the presence of the main trio is one of the factors that helps to balance the result of the film.

Even so, It is appreciated for the intrigue, mystery and light comedy that characterize the saga. There is a higher level of explicit violence, which adds up to a fluid and effective rhythm. However, it could go further, as there are factors that do not convince the public. Despite this, the result is remarkable and a delight for fans. Ghostface returns with tradition and its rules, where this invocation between the past and the present is valued.
