Reaction: Certainly not the numbers we were hoping for with our continuation of the Scream franchise. The film became the lowest grossing film in the entire series by a fairly drastic margin.
"Scream 5 covers A LOT of the same ground as Scream 4, but doesn't do any of it as well as its predecessor. There was no growth from the franchise's returning trio of stars, and the new characters didn't pick up any of the slack." - Justin Rodriguez, Detroit Free Press
"The plot was almost identical to the last installment in the franchise, Scream 4, but this time around the film didn't seem to have a villain and just randomly unmasked a supporting character for the finale." - Samuel O'Brien, Sight and Sound Magazine
"As much as I would like a great series like Scream to continue into the future, this film may very well prove that the franchise has run out of steam following the death of original director Wes Craven." - Dave Vrosky, Den of Geek
