It's hard to follow Paul Giamatti. He's a comedic genius. In the first BFL movie, he had us all rolling on the floor laughing. The guy who plays the BFL in this movie tries but doesn't come close to even being funny. He's about as funny as a sore throat.
One highlight, and this makes it worth it to see the movie, is Jodelle Ferland who is one of the most beautiful young women on the planet yet it doesn't seem that she knows it thereby making her seem sweet and vulnerable. She plays the Amanda Bynes character. Amanda was an exciting actress, but Jodell is just fantastic to watch.

I grew up on the 2002 original film, and rewatched that one time and time again. That movie had a solid script, great zingers, and the jokes/pranks that the kids played were more practical.
This is almost a carbon copy of the 2002 film, and poorly designed with a lot of slapstick and phony heart. The filmmakers try a modern twist - instead of Shepard's essay being plagiarized, it's a video game schematic.
While the main duo isn't horrible at acting, the actor who portrayed Wolf didn't make for a convincing villain. After 40 minutes it was clear that nothing would come together. I was starting to feel bad for Wolf. Yeah he stole the kid's idea, but drugging his smoothie and energy drinks isn't really fair game.
The original film still holds up and this isn't a true sequel. It's regurgitated nonsense.

I am big fan of the original, but this is word for word the exact same movie with a stupid app idea. I am furious watching this film and how Universal allowed this to be made. Thank god this was not in theaters and I could watch it off netlflix in the comfort of my home. Dan Schnider is sobbing after watching this, Why did you have to reboot something so iconic and perfect. This is a disgrace to everyone who enjoyed the original!
I'm sorry if I'm being too harsh, but how did a 2002 movie make more sense than the 2017 remake? I mean, the 2017 bigger fatter liar was so bad that all I did was complain when seeing it. The acting was very poor, the slight change in story made it even worse. With all the technology provided, it still one of the worse remakes I've ever seen.
This Complete excuse for a sequel/reboot of a classic movie. the beginning of the movie is pretty much a cheap ripoff of the original. the acting is played out like a mellow dramatic old time film with out good morals. i give a grade A by the attempt of mimicking Amanda Bynes and Frankie Muniz performance, consider it a Saturday Night Live skit of the original. Luckily this was a direct to video release otherwise this film could have ruined their careers as actors
