Compared to the original, Undercover Brother 2 is amazingly bad. Yes, there where were some funny moments and some original ideas, but the overall impression I was left with was how there simply weren't any high points or standout moments, sequences, or characters throughout the entire movie
Where the original sparkled, Undercover Brother 2 fell flat on just about every level. Maybe there was just no sequel to be made here.

As an avid fan of the first Undercover Brother movie, I was excited to hear that there was a sequel, so of course the family and I bunkered down one night to watch it.
It was disappointing to say the least. While the first Undercover Brother was on the nose with it's humor and self awareness it's sequel lacked any sort of the flair that the original had, coming across as hamfisted. With subpar acting, u ironically cheep effects, and a lack of humor, this movie is a hard pass no matter how you look at it.

So this movie is pretty much bad on every level, don't watch it. Besides a few laughs, I got nothing from it. It could've been saved somewhat if they didn't completely exclude MJW from a majority of the movie (50% of the reason people decided to give this a chance in the first place) and if the main character/actor they chose to go with was more likable, talented, and known. Plus MJW was basically just playing Black Dynamite so this is just horrible.
Have no idea how this got made when there's plenty of other MJW movies that could get sequels. Come on, who doesn't want to see Blood and Bone 2? A second Black Dynamite? Come on! It's fun tho, just wondering why they made this
TL:DR- You know when you're with your friends and want to watch a horrible movie just to make fun of it? This movie is for you.
When I saw the title on Netflix a few hours ago, I thought I was seeing things. The first Undercover Brother was a huge part of my teen years. While it was low budget and campy, it was at least genuinely funny. I don't know if it's the lack of A-listers or poorly written social commentary, but this film just misses. Honestly I only finished it to write this review.
Undercover Brother has returned to the hood from years of fighting The Man. He meets up with his younger brother, who he feels has become a punk in his absence, and proceeds to do a training montage with him to make him better. He and his younger brother are frozen for 16 years in an avalanche in Austria while trying to track down The Man. Undercover Brother's younger brother wakes up first and convinces the new Chief of the Brotherhood to let him join to get revenge on The Man for causing the avalanche to kill them, and to stop The Man's most recent evil plans. Without giving any spoilers, what ensues is a crazy show of poorly done commentary on our current social climate with spattered callbacks to the original Undercover Brother.
Not to say that there aren't interesting concepts and funny moments. Terrible as I thought it was, I laughed at a few parts and even thought the twist wasn't too bad if it had been a better executed movie. But make no mistake, any true fans of the original UB who actually make it through this whole film will find it to be cringeworthy, random, and honestly kind of boring.
The film is also low budget and campy, but this story is poorly written and poorly but together. It seems like a collection of random scenes that a fanboy/girl of the original might have written down were strung together to make a movie. The original UB was quippy and intelligent in its social commentary, but this film simply mocked current social climates in a few monologues without offering much else for us to think about or laugh at.
Now for perspective I personally am black myself, and I would really rather not rain on anybody's parade. But this is a movie review :/ And I'll say this is one of those films that, for a real fan of the original UB, probably isn't worth watching even once.
