6/10
Not bad, but not good, for a sequel it's fine.

Fun movie, definitely doesn't pack the brains and charisma as the first. The jokes are hilarious but become stale as the movie goes on, and a lot they overuse or just become redundant, like the dumb blonde was funny but gets overplayed and annoying to the point where it loses the comedy, same for the little girls love interest, and it's almost like the director said we need everyone to have a love interest... it could have been much more interesting... the only interesting love interest is woody And the new actress who I think is badass. Also Jessie eisenberg Emma stone are cool and the chemistry between the drama works, it's just the blond becomes so annoying and ruins it and them getting together again just feels unearned and cliche. The movie packs a punch with everything it has. The scene where the have two twins was funny and a lot of jokes do land. The final act is very dumb and so half assed. I feel like the original had a faster ending too but it made it work within that little time and it was a shorter film than this one, however it managed to make the little time work. This movie just feels like it wants to wrap it up... and the scene where the monster truck comes in is badass however I can't ignore how dumb and out of nowhere it is for her character and PERFECT timing mind you... a 6/10 is not bad. I wouldn't mind or care for watching this movie again but if I watch Zombieland I wouldn't mind putting this on after to get a few laughs and fall asleep later. Fun movie just lacks the punches and impact of the first. Not bad but not good enough, and I guess it doesn't have to be. Still good as far as sequels go.
