Think of the first movie then take away good acting (except Chubby's character played by Mark Holton - he was funny) take away humor and throw originality out too. In the first movie we saw Michael J Fox's wolf rise to fame, here we see his cousin (what a lame excuse to make another film when the original actor doesn't want to do another) first fail as a wolf then decide he doesn't even want to be a wolf. The sporting storyline is almost exactly like the first film except it's boxing, not basketball this time. I was most annoyed that none of the original actors were there (didn't that tell the film makers something when none of the originals wanted to do another?) but the same characters were present with different names (stiles is different and has a mullet, the attractive popular girl is different, as is the true love). The idea of a teen aged were wolf may have had a little live left in it if all the same actors signed and more time was given to writing a decent story and script. Like the first film there was lots of 80s clichés but then it is 80s so maybe that can be excused. The first one made in 1985 made the 80s look cool but this one makes it look horribly dated and retains none of the charm (I think Michael J Fox had a lot to do with making it charming so the new actor didn't help).
