So there was so much demand from fans to David Spade, begging him to make a sequel to his quite average creation from the early noughties, he felt the need to respect his fans and make this? David, I think you've lost a lot of credit, and by the look on your face in many scenes, I think you know this.
The plot consists of many elements from other movies, most notably The Wizard Of Oz, It's A Wonderful Life, Back To The Future, and Scrooged, but with all the heart and soul from those movies torn out and disposed of.
I suppose the moral of the whole film is that the grass isn't always greener, and money doesn't buy you love and happiness, but it seems that the makers have just wanted to string a load of insufferable bodily fluid gags together, throw in a couple of strange cameos and hope that it all turns out well in the end.
The majority of the cast from the first film are back, probably because they haven't worked in years, and again, several of the cast members look bemused to be there.
Daniels to be fair is really good, at least she looks as if she's putting some effort into it.
But it's Spade who comes out the worse for wear in this, and after initially becoming annoyed with his characters loser like like qualities, I found myself actually feeling sorry for Spade, because after the Castaway homage, he really starts to look bewildered and embarrassed with everything that is going on.
Spade was once a quite sharp instrument, he really made mundane movies like Black Sheep that little more endearing,thanks to his sarcastic traits.
But here, it's all gone, Spade just looks so drained, so tired, it's as if the film is a metaphorical on your knees beg to Adam Sandler to cast him in his next film.
And this is a Happy Madison production.
When a film makes you feel sorry for a multi-millionaire film star, something is seriously wrong.
