...their mantra in real life: boozing, gambling and chasing women. Juvenile, meandering and amateurish to a fault, the original film contained so few redemptive elements that only the most dedicated of audiences found the film appealing. So it’s a mystery why director Steven Soderbergh, the film industry??s latest (but certainly very deserving) “it” boy, would choose to take on an absolute dog’s breakfast of a movie.

Randall, who plans to revolutionize the scaring industry??think sadistic torture and a truly frightening “Scream Extractor”—is also consumed with jealousy for Sulley, the only one who stands between him and the Scarer of the Day title. Eventually Randall’s envy and Sulley’s good-natured...
