Good Burger 2 Is Topped With A Lot Of Cameos
Happy Holidays, Streamers! This Thanksgiving break has given us a bunch of content to review. On the top, or bottom, of that list is the revived and renewed sequel, Good Burger 2. Kenan and Kel have renewed their comedic duo for one more "All That" ride. Good Burger 2 follows Dex after his last failed invention when he is welcomed back by Ed with open arms at Good Burger. The old burger shop is threatened again and the two have to figure out if they still have the sauce to save the shop.
Do I really need to say it? This movie is too late! This movie feels like it's for kids, but I have no clue how the main characters resonate with them. Then, you have adults watching some of the most ridiculous comedy that brings back moments of nostalgia of "All That" and "Kenan & Kel" but just awkwardly. Either way, there are some laughs but fewer than you want. The biggest giggles come from the random cameos by a plethora of celebrities that signed up to be in this movie, true to Good Burger fashion. Also true to Good Burger fashion, this movie took the same tropes from the first movie and just brought it to the present day. It didn't necessarily not work but for those of us that loved the original, it felt way too derivative and carbon copy than a sequel. Kenan does his normal. Kel, although his face looks weird, does his normal. Then, everyone else is doing some version of the same jokes as the original movie in a different but similar fashion, I'm looking at you old lady.
At the end of the day, Good Burger 2 is only 23 years too late and it shows in every scene of the movie. Kenan and Kel try to rekindle what they had and it works a bit but not enough. Good Burger 2 is too late but if you're bored and want to remember your past or force your past on your kids check out Good Burger 2 with a handful of popcorn.
