‘Scream 7’ Review: A Fast-Paced but Flawed Franchise Entry
Scream 7 keeps the franchise moving with quick pacing, entertaining set pieces, and a more efficient, mission-focused Ghostface. While longtime fans will appreciate the callbacks and sharp moments of suspense, the film’s third-act reveal lacks the impact and emotional weight of earlier installments. It’s a solid, enjoyable entry that hints at a stronger version of the story beneath the surface, but ultimately falls short of the series’ best.

Sentimental Value is a quietly devastating exploration of what happens when art, memory, and regret collide. Joachim Trier crafts one of his most intimate films yet, following a once-famous father trying to reconnect with the daughters he left behind in pursuit of his craft. The performances—from Stellan Skarsgård to Renate Reinsve—are layered with quiet emotion, while the film’s delicate cinematography mirrors the fragility of its characters. Trier refuses easy answers; instead, he offers a tender, deeply human portrait of how families fracture, heal, and ultimately rediscover one another. It’s a masterpiece that lingers long after the credits roll.
