Il principe cerca figlio

Is this as funny or as good as the original? No, never was going to be either. Is this as bad as the 1 star reviews? No it's not either! It's entertaining & funny, with some good links to the original. Apparently the story is weak, well yeah it's a comedy, it ain't written to get an Oscar or golden globe!! It's written for laughs, to sit down, unwind, switch off the brain and smile.

It is not funny at all. I was bored out of my mind. The plot is silly and contrived. The only thing good is the beautiful costumes of the three princesses.

A far cry from the first one. The only thing good about Coming to America 2 is Wesley Snipes. And what is up with all the songs? If I want to watch singers singing their pop songs, I would just watch them on YouTube. Skip it.

When I rewatched the original Coming To America this week, I was struck by its timelessness - every scene still worked, every laugh line still felt quotable/funny. In 1988, it somehow managed to be both a classic fairytale and something that felt remarkably fresh (All Black cast?! Actors playing multiple characters?!). This movie meanwhile is...fine? I could not help but enjoy seeing the actors and their characters again, but that's not a movie. That's a reunion special. So we wound up with 2 different things happening: an updated version of the first film starring Jermaine Fowler and a bunch of cameos from the original. It is entertaining in fits and starts. But it is not timeless. It is not even cohesive. I have probably watched Coming To America 20 times, but I'm not sure I'll watch this one more than twice.

Very very disappointing. The son character is cringe worthy
