Nutty Professor II: The Klumps Trailers

The hilarity begins when professor Sherman Klump finds romance with fellow DNA specialist, Denise Gaines, and discovers a brilliant formula that reverses aging. But Sherman's thin and obnoxious alter ego, Buddy Love, wants out...and a big piece of the action. And when Buddy gets loose, things get seriously nutty.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Frustrated by erratic and uncontrollable behavior at the hands of his troublesome alter ego, Professor Sherman Klump undergoes an experiment that separates his personality and allows the suave Buddy Love to become his own person. This time around they're battling each other for possession of invaluable scientific research which only further complicates matters in Sherman's personal life with colleague Jackson. Murphy, who's clearly having fun in his pull-out-all-the-stops portrayal of a horny grandmother, is as likable and energetic as he's ever been, but the script is awfully slim and throws out only a few genuinely funny ideas. A disappointment considering the impact of its predecessor. **

Released in 2000 and directed by Peter Segal, "Nutty Professor II: The Klumps" brings back Eddie Murphy as Sherman Klump, grossly overweight professor with a good heart, who's dating a new girl (Janet Jackson) and still battling with his thin, charismatic alter ego, Buddy Love (also Murphy), although the way Buddy manifests is different. Larry Miller is on hand as the dean of the university while Melinda McGraw plays a representative of a company interested in purchasing a youth-giving potion. Like the first movie, Murphy plays all the adult Klump members (Granny, Mama, Papa and Ernie).Janet is a superb replacement for Jada Pinkett Smith as Sherman's girlfriend and, like the first film, Sherman is a sympathetic character while Buddy Love is charismatic. I might be in the minority, but I wasn't a fan of the two Klump dinner table scenes in the 1996 movie, which explains why I feel this sequel is a drop in quality: There are too many tasteless scenes with the Klumps – not to mention unnecessarily crude scenes in general – and not enough with the best characters, Sherman and Buddy Love. Buddy in particular is mysteriously absent much of the time, which is inexplicable in that he was one of the comedic highlights of the earlier movie.The way Eddie plays all the different characters is genius and well-executed, but the film's simply not as funny as the first one, unless you favor flatulence jokes and vulgar humor in general. The first movie had both, but there's more of it here and less of what was good.The movie runs 106 minutes and was shot mostly in the Los Angeles area, but also Moore's Crossroads, South Carolina (presumably the opening church scene).GRADE: C

The Nutty Professor remake allowed Eddie Murphy to target the family audience market and was a big box office success as well.With a revitalised Murphy going family friendly, a sequel was a given and this time the fat suit is in overdrive as Murphy plays eight roles.This time Sherman is convinced that Buddy is inside him and trying to take over his personality, at the same time he has found a formula to make people young and found love with a fellow professor (Janet Jackson). His efforts to extract Buddy from his DNA results in Buddy coming to life and going after the fountain of youth formula. There is a side effect that the extraction has made Sherman go stupid.There is a mixture of physical and lowbrow comedy with some sexual innuendos. This is Murphy's film though as he plays the various members of the Klumps both male and female as well as Buddy Love.Only Larry Miller can keep up with Murphy with the comedy as the slimy college Dean who gets attacked by a giant hamster.However the film is uneven, some of it feels like long sketches and some of the scenes seemed to be rehashed from the first film such as the dinner table scene.

The Nutty Professor II isn't as good as the first but it isn't the worst sequel in the world either. It doesn't come back with the same characters, for instance, Jada Pinkett Smith didn't come back as Miss Purty and Janet Jackson play Denise (Professor's new Girlfriend) Which leaves me wondering what happened to her... But whatever. There are a few good laughs in the movie and a few chuckles, like grandma's sex joke and the limp noodle. It is cute and quirky but like I said it could be a lot better... Well anyway, this movie is better left rented or seen on cable when there is nothing else on... Hope this review helps... I would at least give it a chance though..
