As a sequel, this film is wholly unnecessary, but as a fully-fledged comedy, it's a welcome sight. There's a dearth of actual comedy movies nowadays, so even the basic ones deserve an extra pat on the back. And this sequel has plenty of random gags and jokes, so I had a good time with it.

Sandler isn't my favorite of the Happy Madison crew, but he can pull off a role like this with his eyes closed. The biggest laughs come from secondary characters and cameos, there's plenty of nonsense (especially during the second half of the film), and nothing is ever taken too seriously. Not the greatest comedy out there, but it wouldn't be too bad to see a few more films like this being released.
Pretty amusing film that makes the best of its formulaic setup. Sandler and Aniston are a nice duo, the locations are summery and rich and the comedy is overall pleasant. It's not very edgy or sharp, but the whole thing is delivered with a wink and although the film's aspirations are quite limited, it results in decent filler.
Weird comedy that mixes in several other genres. Interestingly enough it completely fails as a comedy, but the rest of it is surprisingly fun. Some good action scenes, some funny horror bits and a randomness factor that keeps things fresh. It's definitely hit-and-miss from start to finish, but at least it wasn't boring.
