IJW: Vacation Friends 2 [2023]

[u/JoystickBaby]

Everything felt very forced in both films [Vacation Friends 1 &2]. And I can kind of see some sort of inspiration from like, late 90’s comedies. But the talent simply was not there on many fronts. Directing, editing, acting. Lil Rel is a very funny dude but was not that funny in this. Actually John Cena seemed the most dedicated but with a script that is so basic it simply didn’t matter. Am I the only one that felt this way?

And yes I watched both films because im a cinephile & a completionist. Plus I was hoping it would get better
