Overrated and overhyped

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

In this somewhat inferior sequel the Flodder family finds itself in America, where they get into antics that are fairly identical to the ones from the original. They even end up in yet another car chase with bad guys, what are the odds? The only difference is that neither of the cars ends up in a swimming pool this time around, making the scene about a hundred times less awesome. The son isn't spying on female tennis players anymore, now he's turned to basketball. And then some crooks catch him and want to beat him up, just like in you've guessed it, the first one. There are some new jokes that work, but mostly the makers really just relied on the audience having low expectations and wanting more of the same. Which I guess isn't a particularly dumb move. If you liked the first one you'll like the sequel too, because it involves the same elements (crude jokes, action scenes, Tatjana Simic naked), but overall it seems rather phoned in.

Bas Rutten from Eindhoven, Holland, didn't get the point at all. Yes, this film was unsophisticated and full of stereotypes - it was méant to be! If you can't see that, then you're like the people in the film that were ridiculed themselves. I really laughed my tears out at this one, and hey, I don't lack subtleties. The story is so over the top in demonstrating the total unadaptedness of this family, it's a real achievement. Although it's clear that it imitates Brutti, sporchi e cattivi, all the same it's got a uniqueness of its own. The films (there are three of them) and the series have been, and still are, very popular in Holland; they wouldn't be if they were bad. The actors all did a splendid job and so the director himself, who also wrote the story and the music, did. I wish the commentaries here would more often be given by people who are entitled to speak about the level of movies, and not by blunt arrogants that try to make an impression in lowering other people's achievements.

OK, I'm going to be short on this one: it's a comedy about the Netherlands' favourite antisocial family that's sent to the United States just to get rid of them. What follows is a series of stereotypes and cliches about both the Dutch and the Americans. Those stereotypes are sometimes funny, mostly stupid and almost without any kind of subtlety. Not recommended for people with weak stomachs or any kind of sophistication, moderately enjoyable for the "average viewer"*1/2 out of **** stars

This movie was the sequel to Flodder. Flodder (part one) was a huge success in the Netherlands and everybody was eager to watch part two. So was I, but how disappointed I was, this must be one of the most "not funny" movies I've ever seen.Don't watch this movie, it sucks!
