Will Ferrell used to be hilarious and now he's basically Kevin James in this

This film is for everyone and is extremely funny and comical. I think I enjoyed this one more than the first one which was also funny. I was laughing through from start to finish. The whole cast was brilliant, especially the 4 dads, who were absolutely hilarious. You really need to watch this movie if you haven't seen it already. I don't understand why they didn't get a good view from rotten tomatoes but it really did deserve a lot higher. If your looking for a great funny family comedy, this is the way to go.

I have no idea what is up with the general public but I loved this film. Rarely have I laughed through an entire film from start to finish but this was one. I actually thought this one was better than the first. People need to get out of a group think mindset. Don't go in looking to hate this film just because you read reviews from a couple haters. Go see this with an open mind and light hearted attitude and hopefully you'll enjoy it as much as I did.

Brad (Will Ferrell) and Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) are now the best of friends, co-parenting their kids together. Sara (Linda Cardellini) is leery of exotic Karen (Alessandra Ambrosio) and the influence of Karen's spoiled daughter Adrianna over her daughter Megan. When Megan complains about splitting time in two homes over Christmas, the dads decide to spend the holidays together at a beautiful cabin set up by Kurt. Kurt (Mel Gibson) is Dusty's machismo womanizing absentee dad and Don (John Lithgow) is Brad's touchy kissy feely dad. Dylan has a crush on a girl in the neighboring cabin and is teased by Adrianna and Megan. When Dusty angers Brad, Brad invites Adrianna's daddy Roger (John Cena) to the cabin. The first movie is not my favorite comedy. There are problems with it but I grew to like the pairing of Ferrell and Wahlberg. This one basically adds three more dads but it only really needs two. It's not who you think. It only needs Gibson and Cena. Lithgow is awkward. I did not find his character to be funny or even necessary. In fact, it may be better for Brad's mother to show up instead which would ignite a funny romance with Kurt. That would be a much more interesting story with more potential. Cena needs to show sooner so that his chemistry with the cast can develop. I don't really like Gibson any more as an actor but at least, he fits this role. There are some interesting and even slightly funny moments but overall, this is a weak comedy. Dylan's crush is symptomatic of this movie. It has good potential in the beginning but at the end, it's handled badly which deprives the film of any real humor.
