This is simply a rehash of the first movie and an absolute appalling one at that. The first was no classic but this movie doesn’t even attempt to be half as good as that.

We meet construction worker Jack Hartounian (Jackie Mason “The Jerk”), who doesn’t seem to fit in with the members at a nearby country club. Jack and the other members squabble over their differences and try to get back at each other in the most cunning way. Jack eventually buys the country club and turns into in a strange mixture of a tacky amusement park and a ‘crazy gold course’. It all comes down to a golf match, just like the first one.

Jackie Mason is beyond awful and we are forced to spend a lot of time with this character. Dan Aykroyd (“Ghostbusters”) delivers perhaps the worst performance in the entire movie but at least we don’t get too much time with him. Randy Quaid (“Independence Day”) gives an okay performance and is the only one to make you laugh, even if it is only once. Chevy Chase (“Fletch”) is the only returning cast member from the original, he’s sadly terrible here. I’m glad none of the others such as Rodney Dangerfield or Bill Murray (“The Man Who Knew Too Little”) returned. The gopher is weaker this time around as well. Nobody else came close

“Caddyshack II” is a rotten movie that is woefully unfunny from beginning to end. Aside from some good music and Randy Quaid’s first scene, there isn’t anything in this movie worth seeing. Even diehard fans of the original will struggle to enjoy this picture. While watching this I ask myself ‘why was this made?’ and I couldn’t come up with an answer besides ‘for the money’ as no effort seems to have gone into it.
