Through it all, Mr. Kiser, who says not a word, exudes the foolish amiability of a partygoer who is beyond plotzed and is living in a private world of his own.
Stephen Holden, New York Times

I find it hard to believe that many people will pay $6 or $7 to see a picture that has TV sitcom production values, writing, and acting.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews

If the premise of the first film was mindless and repetitive, it's doubly so this second time around.
