This sequel to the nostalgic film by George Lucas revisits characters from the earlier movie, most notably nice guy Steve Bolander (Ron Howard), who has gone on to marry his sweetheart, Laurie (Cindy Williams). Also featured is car enthusiast John Milner (Paul Le Mat), who has moved into a career on the drag-racing circuit. As the characters deal with personal matters, major social issues such as the Vietnam War and the peace movement also factor into their lives.

While dazzling to the eye, the flirtation with split-screen, anamorphic, 16mm and 1:85 screen sizes does not justify itself in terms of the film's content.

"More American Graffiti" has harder edges and awareness of the new world, making it an intriguing, painfully realistic continuation, finding a fresh way to explore established distress.

Hate to make the obvious snark, but sometimes "More" is less.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, o elenco é mais ou menos, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, a história é fraca, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores.

An underwhelming sequel. I can only conclude that George Lucas had little to no participation in this, which is why the film did not go well.

Fails to do justice to any of its characters.

Fails to gain any special momentum after its well-baked predecessor (not terrible either).
