Just awful.....destroyed the original

I watched one of those blocks on ABC family that had both the original movie and the sequel back to back. I had never seen the Sandlot before, so I watched it and-lo and behold-it was amazing. It was original, it was funny, and it had kids, which at the time I could relate to. Therefore, I thought that Sandlot 2 would be almost as amazing. I was wrong. The acting was horrible, the plot was the exact copy of the original only with different actors. It was a cheap carbon copy of the original. Plus, a lot of it made no sense and had no purpose.

My advice: Don't see this movie. It will save you about an hour and a half of your time to do-or see-something else worthwhile
