Porky's II: The Next Day Audience Reviews

StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Sandcooler This first highly unnecessary sequel to "Porky's" again focuses on some bad guys getting their comeuppance, only this time I just really didn't care. The plot about some religious fanatics trying to shut down the production of a Shakespeare play didn't really work for me, mainly because the villains are so over the top they throw you right out of this movie. Especially the character of Reverend Flavel really makes it super-obvious what's going to happen. This movie pretty much wrote itself, but did a very bad job of it. It may still be fun to see the guys from Angel Beach interact, but they have absolutely nothing interesting to do and things get boring. Their main story has been over for a while, so they have to get by on lame, far-fetched story lines that really scrape the bottom of the barrel (the KKK subplot anyone?). And occasionally they also get involved in a lame practical joke that takes forever to set up. It's still "Porky's", so I can't hate it, but the first is just so much better.
preppy-3 The 1981 "Porky's" was a smutty sex "comedy" about a bunch of teenagers in 1954 Florida. It was nonstop sex jokes and full of nudity (both male and female) and characters being sexually humiliated. It was a surprise box office smash and two years later we got the inevitable sequel. It's tamer than the first and a little bit better--but that's not saying a lot.It starts off the day after "Porky's" ended. There are various plots here and there: the kids are putting on a Shakespeare play and a local church considers Shakespeare obscene (???) and tries to close it down; a Seminole Indian has a part in it and the local KKK wants him out (remember--this was 1954); there's another gag to sexually humiliate Pee Wee (Dan Monahan) and Coach Balbreaker (Nancy Parsons) again has a cruel trick played on her. And, again, there's female and male nudity (though not as much as the first had).Like the first this has people being humiliated and everybody else laughing hysterically at them. Still I have to admit there were a few parts that got me laughing--when the dean of the school battles with the self-righteous reverend over Shakespeare being dirty they both quoting bits from the Bible and Shakespeare that are pretty racy (this is pretty intelligent for a sex comedy); a bit with Graveyard Gloria; one of the guys dressed as a corpse and getting totally drunk; a sword fight; the KKK getting what they deserve and Wendy Williams (Kaki Hunter) date with straight-laced Commissioner Gephardt (Edward Winter). All in all this has more funny parts then the first one had and moves quicker too. The acting is OK--a little overdone but OK. Nancy Parsons comes off best.This one also has a little moral message--that Indian guys (a Seminole guy here) are OK. The first one had the same exact message but for Jewish guys. There's nothing wrong with preaching tolerance but it's totally at odds with the extreme humor we have here. Luckily they have a good script and a top director (Bob Clark) helming this so it works.This isn't a good movie by any means but I'm giving it a 4 for the funny bits.
daltonml-1 I've seen this movie lots of times, and it remains one of the most funniest movies ever made in my book!The entire sex-starved gang of Angel Beach High have returned, with a few new faces for "Porky's 2: The Next Day", and they're more ripe than a truckload of bananas in this one.Talk about funny! These bozos are doing everything possible to save their Shakespeare performance in a subplot that's loaded with laughs. In one memorable moment, Principal Carter screams to the domineering Reverend Flavel to "Get The Flock Outta Here!", which almost sounds like something else he said. There's a brief sound of whimpering from the Principal Carter, then a look of shock from the kids, and suddenly a burst of applause for his heroics.Then there's the revenge on Ms. Ballbricker, the mean fat gym teacher from hell. While she's sitting on the toilet singing in a voice so awful, a snake emerges from in the toilet, causing Ballbricker to scream her ugly head off and run for her life while crying for her mommy, too! In my opinion, that one moment in the entire movie caused me to laugh my ass off. Wasn't life easier in school back in the 1950's? I think so.Did I forget that the gang also battles the KKK that turns into a another laugh riot that's sure to cause heart failure.Altogether, this movie is hilarious despite what others say. And there can never be another Bob Clark around to direct such funny, laugh-til-you-cry movies such as "Porky's 2".If you haven't seen this, then you're hurting!
gangstahippie Rated R for Language and Nudity.I have not seen the original 1982 film "Porky's".I have heard of it though.It was the highest grossing Canadian made film until "Bon Cop Bad Cop" came out.So I decided to watch Porky's II yesterday night when it was playing on IFC.Porky's II is a teen comedy.Its like the American Pie of the 1980's though I preferred American Pie.The film takes place in 1954, a day after the original Porky's.The film has some very funny moments and if you are a fan of teen comedies, check this one out.This film is about a bunch of teenagers who tries to stop some religious fanatics and the KKK from banning the Shakespeare school play.Many humorous things ensue.Porky's 2 is a very funny film and I recommend it for fans of films such as American Pie.
