I have this thing where I end up watching sequels to movies that I already didn't like. This was one of those times. I don't understand this craze where they keep putting WWE stars in every kids show and movies. The Jetsons and Scooby-Doo for example. I don't even understand why it describes them as your favorite WWE superstars. I mean most kids shouldn't even watch WWE in my opinion. Anyways this is the only work from director Henry Yu. Abdul Williams also wrote The Lottery Ticket.
Now let's get into why this is bad and even worse than the first film. It completely bashes on what the first movie set up about ethics and who Cody's hero was. Only two side actors Jon Heder and Diedrich Bader return for their roles. This is played like it's some sort of nature film where a narrator calmly explains what is happening on screen as if we don't know. It's used to make for a comedic mockumentary, but it just feels so unnecessary. They even have him announce just about all of the credits. Also I don't get why they included narration and have the characters interviewed throughout. The narrator even announces when someone is being interviewed. Of course they throw in a little bit of wrestling even though they are playing surfers here. Also we see some of their signature behavior which is amusing, but at the same time it's pretty ridiculous. I just couldn't take this film seriously at all. I guess it could have been interesting if it wasn't so poorly designed. At least the graphics were great.
So yeah I don't know who out there liked the first one, but if you did I can only wonder if this would be up your alley too. If you are curious just know this one is much worse. I waste my time so you don't have to. Skip it hard.
