Featured review
Of all the movies to make a sequel to, why Kindergarten cop? 26yrs after the original, to make a senseless sequel seems mindless especially if it'll have absolutely no connection to the original.
So once again an officer of the law finds himself posing as a teacher and bites off more than he can chrew all in an effort to get to the bottom of a case he's working on.
Essentially this could easily be considered a reboot, it's highly similiar to the original movie and again has NO connection to the Arnie 1990 original.
Sadly 26yrs later a lot has changed and moving with the times hasn't suited Kindergarten Cop 2 in the slightest. The original still had that late 80's goofiness about it, one of those films you could sit down with your kids and watch and they'd both enjoy it and not be subject to anything they shouldn't.
This sequel however is more modern, lacks that goofiness and in my opinion isn't family friendly. I'm not saying it's violent or sex filled, I'm simply saying it's not aimed at the tykes and they will neither enjoy nor understand much of it.
Take away from the fact it simply shouldn't exist and you have a film which is a lot better than you imagine, but still not very good.
The Good:
Aleks Paunovic
Harmless enough fun
The Bad:
Stock scream
Not as family friendly as the first
Paint by numbers stuff
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
The FBI won't react to the code word to begin a raid until a person explains that it was a code word
Candy vending machines are bullet proof due to frustrated police officers shooting them
Being a decent person is "Liberal BS"
This movie actually managed to make living in a trailer appealing
