noway near as good as Bad Santa (1)


its like dumb and dumber 2, it feels like its more of a tribute to the original than doing something original.

More like The Hangover 2. Just an unfunny/copy of the original.

Yeah, it'll never be as good as the original simply because Marcus was going to murder Willie in the first movie. I don't think Willie would have ever considered pulling another job with him. Instead, the writers concocted something ridiculous because they know the sequel wouldn't have worked if the two of them weren't paired up.

Still funny nonetheless. I say it's a solid 7/10. As ridiculous as the plot is, I had a good time watching it in theaters.

I did too. Weird to see Brett Kelly (the kid) now grown up.:) (And from the first movie as well, Octavia (L.) Spencer, now post-"The Help" immortality-she also soon after appeared in "Gifted")
