Bad watch, probably won't watch again, and can't recommend unless you're just a huge fan of Rob Schneider or "Deuce Bigalow". This really feels like an unnecessary sequel to an unnecessary movie: I'm just glad this didn't become a big franchise somehow. Because they clearly knew it wasn't enough to just continue the non-traditional gigalowing for shaming comedy purposes, they tried to add a murder mystery plot. A lot of the jokes are either rehashed from the original or look like they were scenarios they couldn't fit into the first movie. The terminology alone is irritating, and I feel like whatever you wanted when you turned this on, you're just not going to get.
