This movie still has a lot of the charm from the original, mainly in the dynamic between Ed and Dexter, which is what brings it up to this point. On the other hand, a lot of the plot points feel a little forced. It seems like it is trying too hard to appeal to a younger audience than to focus on a plot, which severely degrades the movie. It is also a lot less down to Earth, which takes out some of the charm that the first one had, which felt at least realistic to an extent. Overall, it holds a candle to the original in some ways, yet falls flat in many others, making it much more of a new business venture than an act of fan service to people who love the original.
After watching the original one, I was excited for the sequel. I had kept my expectations low as I was not sure about the sequel.
For me, the movie was both silly and fun. The story was simple and childish (which it was meant to be) and story's concept was same as the original, the screenplay was an improvement over the original, the direction was simple and good and the performances were good. The humour was uneven, somewhere you laugh and somewhere the jokes fail to make you laugh.
Overall, it is a childish silly movie which is enjoyable to watch with your friends and family just like the original.

The best way to describe this film is definitely "for the fans".
Chances are 26 years after the first film, that most of the audience will be older now, but it's chance to relive nostalgia for those, and make them feel like children again. It still contains lots of silly jokes. In my opinion, it's not as good as the first, but considering how low my hopes were for this film since the actors are older, also using a different director, I was pleasantly surprised.
Lots of surprise collaborations such as Yung Gravy, Kai Cenat, Mark Cuban, Pete Davidson etc which made the film feel like a fever dream at some points.
The film does seem to follow a similar plot to the last one, but still retains that "stupid" humor while managing to be somewhat new.
If you're thinking of watching this film without watching the other, don't bother. Watch the first film, then this or you probably won't get it. This film is not to stand out or make any marks, it's simply for the fans.

Look this isn't a perfect flick. If you don't have a fondness for the original it's probably going to be downright silly and not very good.
But it has a ton of heart and nails the overall vibe of its first movie much much better than most sequels that come out 20 years later do. It's clearly made as a labor of love for the fans and for the performers to enjoy themselves and catch up with friends.
It's obvious nobody got paid massive amounts of money for this - in fact the budget may be even lower than the original. But who cares! The jokes are still the same, the actors are still bringing it and enjoying themselves, and the whole thing is just like the first - a fun way to spend 90mins laughing at simple jokes and watch kenan/kel absolutely kill it.
They're great in the leads and it's like nothing has changed between them despite everyone being quite a bit older. Just go in knowing its very simple and cheap, but also tries its hardest to keep up the spirit of the original.

Good Burger 2 took me back in time to the original which was both a good thing and a difficult one. It reminded me how cliche and cheesy the original film was. Good Burger is just like the original but amplify it by 10x. Now don't get me wrong I had a good time with this film as it was harmless and didn't do anything to reinvent the genre. It was good seeing the original cast come back for this one. You can tell they had a good time marking this movie which hopefully rubs off on you. If you did not enjoy the first one at all then please don't bother with this one. Good Burger 2 gets a middle of the road 6 stars out of 10 from me.
