For reasons that neither you nor I could ever comprehend, the original Super Troopers movie is an all-time favourite of mine. But when you think of movie sequels, there's a lot of history you can point to to show were they've gone wrong. Especially in comedy sequels. Especially especially in comedy sequels to cult classics. Especially especially especially in comedy sequels to cult classics where they waited twenty years since the last entry. When you dig that far, and look at the company that Super Troopers 2 keeps, it's not exactly promising.

Surprisingly enough though, I actually kind of dig this movie? It is in no way better than the first, it's not even in any way as good as the first, but I did feel that it was worthy of the first, I had more than a couple of pretty genuine out-loud laughs, and that's not something I get a lot from the cinema of today.

Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go.
