I really wanted this one to be funny, but it wasn’t. With three really funny guys returning for a sequel (Koechner has never made me laugh), I thought they’d have a good story and some witty banter, but it’s a lame effort all around. I can’t believe the same guy directed the original, which was actually pretty funny.

Racial humor can be so easy if it’s done right, but they even mess that one up. A lot of dumb lines and situations. And it keeps going and going. Could have easily been 30 minutes shorter.

An impressive number of cameos in the final ridiculous battle scene.
