I really put my brain through a blender when I decided to check this out. I saw ads for it on Facebook that had me infuriated. They looked absolutely dreadful and stupid. I absolutely loved the first one from when Frankie Muniz and Amanda Bynes were still awesome. This one looks like a sequel, but comes off as more of an exact replica remake. Nobody asked for either of these things to happen. I mean maybe if they had got the original stars we could talk. The only reason I decided to check it out at all is because I kind of have a crush on Jodelle Ferland. I typically like Ron Oliver as he has worked on several shows I loved through the years. So I don't know what in the hell happened to him to take this on. David H. Steinberg wrote a couple American Pie sequels and Puss in Boots all of which I liked. So I can't for the love of God figure out why or what happened.
The original one is already pretty modern, but they decided to update the story a little bit. A lot of the pranks are the same although of course slightly altered. The situations and people they meet are taken straight from the original. They changed characters names, but this was only very slightly. It was so uncharismatic though. It lacked the fun of the original. I don't know what everyone was thinking when they decided to make this.
Don't subject your kids to this torture! Watch the original instead as it is by far superior. I am very thankful that this was on Netflix and I didn't waste any money on it. I'm just sorry I wasted my time. That's what I do though. I waste my time so you don't have to. Do yourself a favor and pretend this doesn't exist.
