I don't know about you, but the first movie is great. Some things are a bit too corny, but hey! That's expected to an extent regarding these types of comedies. Who can forget the moment when Lloyd tells Harry he's been having two pairs of gloves, the hot pepper in the burger. Followed by the rat poison instead of medicine. I like it A lot. If you haven't seen it you should, it's a cult classic.
Going in to this movie my expectations were, granted, pretty low. And I don't think it holds up to the original. Even though a lot of the plot points are similar to the original. A bag/package belonging to a female gets forgotten/dropped, Lloyd and Harry tries to give back the bag/package, mix in that there has been a misunderstanding regarding Fraida Felcher, Lloyd and Harry. Annnnnd you have this movie. It still has loads of moments where I burst out laughing, especially the part where Lloyd and Harry are looking for a house for a long time, only to return to the starting point, "But it cures cancer...", the return of the blind kid Billy and the payback from Harry in the end.
It is definitely worth a watch, you'll get a couple of laughs but in all honesty. This wasn't a sequel that needed to be a thing. If you stay to after the credits you'll get to see the Farrelly brothers goof with the idea of making sequels, and the let down of keeping Seabass to a last minute appearance. Not quite the corny cult classic that the original is to me, but give it a shot if you're into the original and corny, idiotic, chock-based and intelligently timed comedy.

A parody, of a documentary, on a movie that due to the themes in the movie was cancelled 20 years ago. Starring Kevin Sorbo. Right at the get go I'm sold.
Mix in a bunch of action, cheesy effects and acted acting, drugs, dark themes and a kick ass weapon (a scoop net with a blade at the net and a knife at the end of the shaft) to name a few things and you get an in-your-face B-movie comedy.
How do you review a movie that constantly walks the lines of absolute balls to the wall comedy, constantly breaks the fourth wall and makes really bad puns? Well, like any other movie I would guess. But to be honest, this is one of the funniest movies that I've seen in recent times. It's just stupid enough, and has more than enough intelligence to realize that it's stupid to make it enjoyable. The setup is amazing, and the ridiculousness of the setup to the movie makes it perfect as a B-movie. It shouldn't be considered a B-movie just because it has a low budget, the majority of the movie is actually funnier than a hundred new A-movies that has a lot of money attached to it. The writing really puts it over the top, kudos to Ross Pattersson.
To be even more honest a review doesn't even give this movie the praise that it deserves. Even though this movie has bad ratings it deserves a whole lot more credit than people are giving it, or rather denying it. Just watch it, broaden your perspective, bro.

Quite possible the best Marvel movie that has been made, so far.
The visuals are great and pleasing to the eye. Nothing too impressive though, but that is beside the point. The movie as a whole is put together so good. Everything blends together nicely, the jokes (poking fun at the hero clichés and working of the characters, which is really driven home by both Pratt and Cooper), story (a bunch of lonely misfits thrown together by fate, that pushes them to go against their normal way of handling situations) and characters (all portrayed by very good casted actors that seem to have a great time with the movie and the script circling around it.
I feel like I can go on and on about why this movie deserves to be watched, but that wouldn't do it justice. But it really is a great summer blockbuster that both lives up my hype and far exceeds it at the same time. So why are you still reading this? GO! Go out and see it, join the legion of satisfied people who have watched a great piece of action cinema come to life!!!
