It’s a pretty worthy sequel to one of my favourite comedy’s of all time. Not much to say other than that.

Honestly, a nothing burger

I maybe laughed a couple times?

Audrey and Rusty in this one are probably my least favorite versions, Audrey is so annoying and somehow Rusty is a chick magnet

The best part is the poor guy that keeps running into clark in every country, I like that reoccurring bit. The poor guy lmao

And the icing on the cake, no Eddy. Boo

There it is, kids. My motherland🥲
Dad, Grandma's from Chicago 😐
Shut up, Russ
