Twenty-six years after successfully taking advantage of his partner's secret sauce, "Dexter Reed" (Kenan Thompson) is still trying to make a fortune off of get-rich-quick schemes. However, when his latest scheme ends up burning his house down and leaving him homeless, he turns to his old colleague "Ed" (Kel Mitchell) for a job and a place to stay. Naturally, being the nice person that he is, Ed quickly opens up his home and his heart to his old friend and even allows him to return to his old job at Good Burger. Yet even though he is genuinely thankful for Ed's assistance, Dexter's ambitions soon get the better of him as he subsequently negotiates with a powerful businessman named "Cecil McNevin" (Lil Rel Howery) to convince Ed to sell his rights to Good Burger over to Cecil in order to franchise the restaurant worldwide. Being an extremely trusting person, Ed follows Dexter's advice and signs the contract Cecil gives to him. What neither of them realize, however, is just how dishonest Cecil actually is--and this will have catastrophic consequences for the two of them. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this sequel turned out to be a little bit better than I initially thought it would. To further elaborate, I thought that the first film seemed rather erratic in nature--with some scenes being quite good, while other scenes weren't nearly as effective. This sequel, on the other hand, was more evenly balanced and seemed more polished. That being said, while I don't think the sequel was better than the original film, it wasn't necessarily any worse either, and I have rated it accordingly. Average.
