... View MoreMost undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreActress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
... View MoreBad Santa 2 is bad. It has the feel of a tacky, cash grab kids movie, with all of the profanity you could ever want and more. I swear all the f#$%Ing time, I'm also a young horny guy, but this film takes no rest. It depends on it, for some reason.Plot- Picture the first Bad Santa. Okay, now watch the trailer for this movie. Then, add a typical douchebag as a villain and a trashy over the top Kathy Bates. Finally, imagine a derivative ending to it all, followed by a montage of testicle photos on Tony Cox. It was pretty stupid.Writing- Literally every other line is a sex joke, and if Tony Cox is on the screen, you can bet he's getting grilled for being a midget. I think profanity is great, but the people making this movie have no creativity or timing. Not one single quote.Characters/Acting- Acting wasn't bad at all, but Billy Bob seems a bit less tenacious, when he should be furious by this point of the Bad Santa time line. There are plenty of moments that feel like you're listening to a childs movie in terms of their wording and performance. Quality- The movie was shot well and everything technical is great, but its got no style (not that I need that, I just wanted to walk away with something rewarding) and I don't have much else thereOverall, the first Bad Santa is one of my top 10 favorite movies. It was original, really funny, honest, and even heartwarming. A very underrated christmas movie. This, Bad Santa 2, is just as crappy as it looks. If you like nonstop trash talk and any movie with a good actor, go for it. But I recommend you stay away.
... View MoreThis seems strictly like a cash grab. It had twice the crudeness from the original but only half the story.
... View MoreThis movie is better enjoyed after watching the first. There are plot points that are relevant. But regardless of this, just like the first movie it is a hilarious adult comedy. I just binge watched both and the first one is just a tad better. Perhaps because of the originality, bu the second contains more profanity.... hummm tough choice. Not juvenile sexual humor, rather very serious and extremely funny. Highly recommended.
... View MoreBad Santa has been ruined just like Dumb & Dumber. It's as if the lazy ignorant degenerate Hollywood writers hate & despise comedy & want smarmy ugliness in its place with a small community niche fixation on the glories of sodomy,doing everything in their limited vocabulary of "F" words & generic hardcore poo poo jokes to utterly destroy any fond memories one might have had ...welcome to the New America your not Kansas anymoreWhy the hate?Now with Bad Santa 2 Sodomy is the MAIN theme with alcoholism secondary. Billy Bob bangs(sodomizes) two mousy horny women, ones a rich recovering alcoholic the other a plump security guard . The acts happen near a dumpster,Christmas tree lot and bar bathroom ...plus out of the blue a blonde party hostess masturbates Billy Bob for no apparent rhyme or reason while the birthday kiddies are in the next room.I guess the HIV/AIDS epidemic & Hollywood hysterics from drama queens is so passé.Billy Bob's character looks gaunt, medicated & suicidal...I wonder what Bad Santa Christmas cheer he's still trying to spread while in a alcoholic haze & without a condom?The Black dwarf is still angry but now has new murderous thug persona . Billy Bobs mom (Kathy Bates) is an old swearing tramp stamp whore in one of her worst-best 'Misery' flashback roles.The clueless fat innocent kid from the original is now a stalking clueless twenty year old retarded man-child with a dismal future ahead of him (I worry about him) Insultingly bad and distressful knowing the suicidal drunk & perpetual man-child may be homeless together with Santa Lennie sodomizing self hating women & George watching behind a dumpster.A one star * black-out ,bathhouse hangover.
