This was fantastically hilarious in so many ways and on so many levels. There was not one person in the theater who wasn't laughing. I dreaded the day, sort of, that this movie came out because I didn't think there was any way it would live up to the original. I saw this with five other adults, and we ALL thought it was better than the original. It is supreme comedy at its finest. Jim and Jeff really fell back into those roles magnificently and way outdid themselves. There are surprise appearances from the original movie.
Don't go into this movie expecting a life-changing experience. That isn't the point of these types of movies. If you can't laugh at this movie, you need to have the part of your brain that controls happiness checked. If you enjoyed the first one, as I know many did, then you will love this one, too.
