Still has the stilted script and performances of the first one (even Glover has zero energy for most of this, despite Trejo giving it 100%), and the new romantic interest is still decades younger than Trejo, but the film-making is more amateurish (e.g. the studio clearly visible in Glover's mirror shades as he's doing greenscreen driving scenes), the action is a lot less convincing and there are now college girls swooning over the doddering old leads. It also has neither the sense of identity the first film drew from the original viral video, nor the common sense to ramp up towards the end with something like its predecessor's wacky bus chase (instead dribbling to a halt with a brief fist-fight on a countryside road).
Rating: Awful.
