    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Julia Montgomery refused to reprise her role as Betty because in the original script Betty is caught cheating on Lewis. Montgomery felt it betrayed the change in her character from the first film. Joe Roth offered to have the scene re-written but Montgomery still refused. She eventually returned for the following sequels. Lewis is shown packing a picture of Betty in the beginning of the film, implying they're together and that Lewis cheats on Betty with Sunny later in the film.

      Comedy Central airing cuts: Booger pouring condoms into his travel bag, Booger's "VIP" line and the flight attendant's slap (though video footage of it still appears in the credits), footage of the wet nighty contest (though the contest is still referenced), any direct shots of the altered "HOTel cORAL esSEX sign (though the final scene has a similarly-altered scene uncut), and numerous scenes of Ogre smoking weed with the Nerds. All profane language is cut as well.

    Incoherent
    This was a disappointment compared to the original. Why is it that sequels often try to do similar things, similar plots, similar jokes? Not necessary! A sequel to me must be original to some degree, too. The beginning was promising, the middle part had enormous lengths and very bad scripting and the end was bland. I loved the characters though. Believable like the original. However, Poindexter seemed much too talkative and sometimes even made sense, almost as if Milton Waddams went to a speech-therapist. I did not like the setting at all and the hotel scenes were very far fetched.

    All in all rather disappointing. Too bad.
