James B. Rogers directs Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan and Seann William Scott in this gross out teen comedy sequel about the boys renting a summer lakehouse together before their second year at college. 

With only one great cringe set-piece to rival all the multitude in the original and the girls taking a comedy backseat, this is the epitome of a cash-in. Still that sequence where Jim glues his hand to his dick and his other hand to a porno tape, all to the soundtrack of Alien Ant Farm’s Smooth Criminal cover, is a physical comedy belter. Stifler gets more gags, the sweetly dank Hannigan graduates from killer punchline to romantic interest and there’s enough chemistry between the better players to cover those asked back out of sheer narrative loyalty (Hell… even the monkey and Jim’s shit brown short sleeved shirt get comeback scenes). As cash-ins go, this doesn’t inspire any refunds or brand dilution. And you get the killer close-up of Eugene Levy’s face in a hospital waiting room. A visage filled with resigned dread that his son’s life is now a litany of public masturbation disasters.
