Better than #1 but still raunchy. Teens love it. Go to Full Review Ben Falk BBC.com 09/24/2001

Writer Adam Herz has an uncanny knack of turning even the most predictable scenarios into slices of comedy magic. Go to Full Review Peter Travers Rolling Stone 08/27/2001

A slipshod sequel that looks tossed together over a weekend by people who couldn't care less. Go to Full Review Dan DiNicola The Daily Gazette (Schenectady, NY) 04/30/2024

Less a second slice than a reheated piece of the original, the sequel tastes just as good. Go to Full Review PJ Nabarro Patrick Nabarro 12/02/2018
2/5
The filmmakers have essentially engineered the exact same formula as the first film (the lads are now a year into their college lives) except to rapidly diminishing effect. Go to Full Review Charlie Lyne Ultra Culture 04/29/2012
Our second encounter with the Class of '99 is unashamedly similar to (but way slicker than) its predecessor. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Joseph M @Jmads06 Aug 16 It's a cheap and unmotivated sequel to the first movie (that definitely had no need for a sequel). It's a little funny but the original was only okay and this one was much worse. See more Rami A @Bunt101 Jul 12 It's hard to say whether or not it's better than the first, but what I can say is that it's just as funny as the first. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Jul 4 The worldwide gross is $287,553,595.00. See more Mikey B Jul 2 Would rate a zero. Usual contractually obligated sequel to megabit. Cast doesn't have a script to work with. No laughs. See more Craig H @DownWeGo Mar 29 Not far off the first one really. Both very nostalgic, fun light hearted movies that give you a smile on your face by the end and makes you miss the days when parties didnt have a mobiel phone in sight See more James E @JamesE167 Feb 13 A worthwhile sequel that stays true to the original while adding its own levels of humor and comedy. This time, there is more room for character growth, which, fortunately, adds the the film. See more Read all reviews
