Baaam!! feel my p hand!!... ha-ha, so bad that it's good...

I will not even bother to tell this movie's story because it really doesn't matter. What does matter though is that this movie can be so damn funny if you're in the right mood, after 4-5 beer or so that is. It's shameful to admit but this movie is actually funnier than the first one because it's so over-the-top. And this dutch babe is hot too. One of the funniest moments have Schneider make a speech in front of all the man heeers just to be thrown out of the window promptly. Another funny sequence is when Schneider and his buddy attend a Coffee shop.

With lines like "Kaizer, get back to your work" or "why is it called Space cake?" this movie is totally hilarious in all its stupidity.

One of the worst movies of all time but also one of the funniest!

See it and laugh your balls off! :D
