OUR REVIEW OF THE FILM ITSELF:
Good Burger 2 should be safely regarded as a disappointment to fans of the original release. While bringing back Dex and Ed, the fact the two have shown no signs of maturing over decades between titles is yet another Dumb & Dumber To situation. The story is silly, which works in context with the insane premise but the jokes unfortunately miss 99% of the time. It's always great to see familiar favorites return but sometimes its best to leave the 90s in the 90s. | Connor Petrey

REASONS TO WATCH:
"Silly and absurd, this family comedy has some genuine heartfelt and hilarious moments." - Fat Guys at the Movies
"And it mostly maintains the stoopid spirit of the original. It seems to maintain it, anyway – its success is wholly contingent on one’s standing affection for the first movie..." - Decider
"Good Burger 2 sticks to the hits but matures enough to not seem weirdly juvenile. It comes off as endearing and nostalgic fun." - Tell-Tale TV
