The Cleveland Indians, an endearing assortment of oddballs who improbably won the division championship last season, have since lost their edge due to personal pursuits and the excesses of fame. Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn (Charlie Sheen) does lucrative endorsements, but his killer fastball is gone, while once-aggressive slugger Pedro Cerrano (Dennis Haysbert) has become a laid-back Buddhist. But, as the players realize they've all gone astray, they rally for a shot at the World Series.

Striking out on every joke, Major League II is a lazy sequel that belongs on the bench.

It's basically the first one but nothing better and pretty much pound for pound the exact same thing. The acting is just ok. It lacks any of the charm or chemistry mainly because they got rid of all the personality traits that made them who they are. The idea of development in this is by subtraction and just getting back. The humor gets a chuckle 20% of the time while the rest just falls flat. The new catcher isn't good and is just a dumb addition. The cinematography is isn't that good because it is almost shot for shot the same key moments and scenes from the first. On top of almost no gags getting a laugh. The music is ok. The editing isn't that good. I can't tell you who the main character is in this, unlike the first where it is clearly Jake. Things just sort of happen at times because its more concerned with hitting the key scenes from the first than telling a new story. The pacing is ok enough luckily because it hits the key points ok and just reminds you enough of the first that it keeps your interest. Honestly, I can't recommend this to anyone. Just watch the first and stick to that.

Honestly, "Major League II" is not as bad as the critics claim it is. It is not as good as the original, but it still worth watching if you have the chance. This movie has many more behind-the-scenes relationships than the first one. However, this movie has some really funny characters, like Rube Baker. He is one of the funniest, most charming characters this league has ever seen! I especially like Randy Quaid's performance as the heckling fan, Johnny! "Hey vile thing, I think I loathe you!" That's funny, isn't it? I mean, if you don't mind some relationship drama and slapstick humor, and like baseball jokes, Major League II is the movie for you!

Better then the first in my opinion. It's a lot more about baseball then anything else. Very hilarious as well, the game announcers crack me up. This is my favorite out of the series.

A singularly unfunny, dramatically tepid follow-up to 1989's $ 50 million theatrical success.

There has rarely been such a steep and strange decline between a movie and its sequel as the one between the fast, silly original and the dismal, boring Major League II.
