Familiar Faces and a Good Time
31 March 2016
I enjoyed the original and bought it on DVD. We watch it as a family about every other year. Sure, it's sitcom-y and very light entertainment but it's cute, fun and funny. I will say that this sequel is very much the same ... in the second half. I would give the film a '5' for the first 45 minutes and a '9' for the last 45 minutes, making it a '7' and a safe night of entertainment for everyone.

The entire - and I mean ENTIRE - cast of the original is here along with a few new faces. There's a lot of setup in the first half and the payoff comes in the second. It's one of those happy movies where everyone gets a happy ending, all problems are resolved and you leave the theatre satisfied. That says a lot. I never laughed out loud but I definitely smiled and chuckled quite a bit. A great date movie for couples of any age.
