you know thing aren not go well when the title character doesn not make an appearance in the equel . as much a i enjoy kal penn in the first van wilder ( and harold and kumar ) and he isn not give much to work with here . the script be awful and just brutal . i think i laugh twice throughout the whole thing . i be sure nobody be watch this type of movie for compel character and rivet plot and but when almost every single joke fall completely flat . every other blemish on the script become glare . there be completely nonsensical subplots throw about that reference secondary character that you forget be introduce in the first place and a silly competition that never make any sense and an embarrass turn by the bulldog that make his infamous scene from the first van wilder look like high art . if you sit a twelve year old in a room with a typewriter and tell him to write revenge of the nerd in england he couldn not do much bad than what give here . the bad part be that the movie get consistently less funny a it go on . the final 15 minute or so be cringe induce . the direction isn not much well . the whole thing have a look of a make for cable tv movie you would see on a kid network . not only be kal penn inconsistent with his accent from scene to scene and sometimes it every other line . on a few occasion and i couldn not even make out the dialog . the actor clearly do not give a clean read but it make through to the final cut anyways . i realize this be make on the cheap and but you can tell the folk behind the camera do not put forth much effort . either that or they do not have the time . regardless and it not pretty to watch . the only saving grace be the actor . despite kal penn not bother to hold his accent and everybody on screen appear to be have a good time . even if everything else be awful and i can not hate a movie where it at least appear that the actor enjoy their work . they all seem determine to give their best despite what they all must have know be horrendous material . kal and the female lead ( lauren cohan ) admirably build some chemistry with little help from their line . holly davidson also steal a couple of scene a the cockney member of the group . while i do not think this be a complete disaster and you would be wise to avoid it .
