Lame, horrid sequel is even worse than the first.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 1, 2011

This is shocking only for its tepidness; except for some raunchy language, it's ready-made for basic cable.

Screw Tara Reid! Who needs her in this movie. We've got a cockney girl with huge knockers.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 13, 2007

prefers to dwell in deep direct-to-DVD juvenility.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Feb 3, 2007

Penn sports little of the squirrelly charm evidenced by the original Van Wilder star, Ryan Reynolds.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Feb 3, 2007

National Lampoon recycles countless collegiate comedies for this spin-off sequel.

| Original Score: 1/6 | Feb 3, 2007

Penn is capable of so much more.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 3, 2007

From haphazard editing to clueless cinematography to godawful acting to gaping plot holes to zero laughs to low production values, this sorry sequel has all the earmarks of your classic 'take the money and run' ripoff.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Dec 25, 2006

...original star Ryan Reynolds wisely took a pass on coming back for more...

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 10, 2006

Granted, it's still ****, but with a sweeter odor than usual.

Everything old is old again in this rickety extension of 2002's already rickety Van Wilder.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Dec 6, 2006

There was a hedonistic amorality and joyous celebration of privilege in the first Van Wilder that's missing from its sequel. That's fine with me. I hated that movie.

Taj plays like a very bad combination of Revenge of the Nerds and Harry Potter.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 4, 2006

Britain and India face off in National Lampoon's Van Wilder 2: The Rise of Taj, a strained attempt to transplant the American campus comedy to more uptight shores.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 4, 2006

Ill-conceived.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 4, 2006

Van Wilder 2's sense of numbing familiarity is not enhanced by director Mort Nathan's apparent unfamiliarity with the entire filmmaking process.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 4, 2006

Some movies are Hollywood's version of littering: Like half-eaten pizzas or rancid burgers, these flicks are tossed aside to rot in empty cinemas.
