My first thirty minutes, I felt that Jenna Ortega …


That Jenna Ortega is overrated. She might be the biggest name in the cast, but her acting isn’t impressive. She isn’t particularly good-looking (average). And her height creates some awkward on-screen moments. She looks like a child next to most people

I disagree. I thought she was very compelling and watchable. I also felt she had more personality than Melissa Barrera, although that was partly the point, since Ortega was playing the more impulsive character, and Barrera was playing the sensible, but disturbed one, who had to tightly control her emotions.

Chad Mindy and the new boyfriend are the weak links. I m not Saying Jenna is great but she's passable

reply

Chad and Mindy are beyond boring. The new boyfriend is worse.. Jenna is ok.

Jenna is winning an oscar compared to the rest of those "actors"
The cop was alright and maybe Kirby

The chubby sister is much better in 6 but she still can’t act well. She makes the little sister look like a true thespian!

I think Chad’s fine, but his sister sucks.

Jenna Oretga is very attractive, definitely not average! And her acting is good.

reply

She is mid/average lol almost looks like a guy

reply

Yeah. I don’t get why she’s so popular. She’s averagely cute, she’s not great at emoting, she doesn’t have stage presence or charisma.

reply

I thought both Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera were pretty good.

reply

What were you expecting? Something spectacular? She gets across her character convincingly.

reply

So, my thing is I like Jenna, and I think she's good. Is she a tad overrated? Yes, she is but I like her anyway.

But I definitely agree about her height and find it a little absurd she survived multiple Ghostface attacks as she's barely 5 feet tall, barely 100 pounds
