jacobjohntaylor1 The is an awful movie. The first one is not better. In fact it is worst . Do not see this movie. The story line is awful. It is not funny. Do not see it. It is terrible. It is very boring. Good actors wasted talent being in this awful movie. 4.9 is just overrating this awful movie. I do not no why it got a 4.9 it is just awful. I give it 4 out of 10. It is so awful. The first was not funny. And this is not funny. Do not wast your time. Do not wast your money. Do not see this movie. This is boring. Courtney Thorne Smith is a very pretty woman that is one thing I will say for. But that does not make up for how boring this movie is. I do not know why people think this is funny. It is not it is just boring.

Aaron1375 This movie is very typical of sequels of earlier years. Back in the day sequels would typically do less business than the original film so for the sequel not much effort is really taken to build upon the films. This film has the nerds going to an event in a nice resort town and of course they are once again picked on, because the popular people just have nothing better to do than harass these few guys instead of drinking and partying. Of course, there is revenge to be had, but not as much revenge this time for the nerds, they take way more bumps in this one and dish out a whole lot less pain this time around. They get stuck in a dump, they get fooled by what they perceive as a sacrifice in a scene that they should be the ones to come up with not the jock types, and they get dumped off on a deserted island. The poor guys do not get to do much other than punch a person this time. The thing they did with Ogre is stupid at the end and once again Booger just does not seem to fit with the nerds as he once again comes across as a guy who is going to be in a regular fraternity and being the cut up. He meets a man in this one that sort of mentors him. Like I said, there is not really a whole lot of revenge of the nerds in this one, they did a whole lot more in the first movie to get back at their tormentors. They are also a nerd down as Anthony Edwards does not return, but they pick up another one to take his place. The next film in this series would go straight to television which is almost worst than direct to video, and thankfully there has yet to be a remake of this franchise that started out with a few laughs, but quickly downgraded with this entry.

sol- A terribly silly but awfully amusing little sequel, it may be a touch predictable, and it is missing Thomas Newman's excellent theme song, but having the same likable characters on hand helps it to be equally as fun as the first film. Some of the jokes are really hilarious, and arguably I would say that it is funnier than the first film. I would not definitely call it better, but it is certainly at least on the same level, with an interesting charm radiating from the nerdy characters. And there is another song to take the place of Tom Newman's ditty: an amusing little number called "No on Fifteen". The film seems to get a lot of negative feedback, but I cannot agree - it may not be a great film, like the first, but it is by all means amusing, like the first.

SpecialAgentScully I may be in the minority, but I loved this film. I loved the original as well. The sequel has plenty of laughs, and many occur during understated moments. The nerds' arrival at their one-star hotel, the Hotel Coral Essex, was hilarious to me. Who among us hasn't found ourselves in less-than-desirable accommodations at one time or another? From the chickens roaming inside, to the un-swimmable pool, to the Peep Show establishment sharing the building, this is the embodiment of everyone's vacation nightmare, a la "National Lampoon's Vacation", but even more so. The Cuban-American front desk clerk-- and her fervent love of Ricky Ricardo-- was a real treat. Those who did not laugh at these moments are likely those who are less experienced in life. I enjoyed the Florida "stereotypes" (which were not all insulting -- Sunny was a nice, typical Florida girl), having traveled there myself, as well as the blast-from-the-past 1980s setting/filming. The stereotype of the flamboyantly gay man in Lamar's character was enjoyable and humorous to me, and I hope other viewers saw it in the "light" way that it was meant to be taken, as well. I also hope that other viewers were not offended in any way by the portrayal of the African American chapter of Tri-Lambda, because I found them to be the *most* upstanding characters in both this film and the original. I would have liked to see those characters featured in even more scenes. While the absence of Gilbert on the trip was a little disappointing, it was great to see him for a few moments here and there. Lewis carried the other scenes perfectly well by himself. With his sensitive nature and good looks beneath his "nerd" costuming, it is not too much of a stretch to imagine beautiful yet emotionally mature and smart ladies like Sunny falling in love with Lewis. Finally (POSSIBLE SPOILER? ALERT!), I couldn't have asked for a happier ending than the conversion of one of the Alpha Betas. Some extra features on the DVD (such as outtakes, interviews, cast biographies, etc.) would have been welcomed / appreciated, but one can't have everything, I guess!
