    This movie was exactly what a thought it would be. Pretty cheesy and slightly stupid, with a couple laughs and some boobs thrown in for entertainment value. I think they can let the Van Wilder cash cow die. Quickly put her out of her misery, before anyone gets the not so bright i...( read more)dea to make another one.
    Jonathan Bennett is a little cutie. And although he did channel some of Ryan Reynold's mannerism as Van, you just can't have Van Wilder without the hotness or cutting whit that is Mr. Reynolds.
    I will say that Kristin Cavallari is very pretty and she did a good job as Kaitlin.

    Not as good as the first one... the actors do a great job, though.
    Had it's funny moments and both the lead male and female had good chemistry, in my opinion.

    This film seems to run just like an '80s teen comedy..and a bad one at that. There are a some amusing moments. Jonathan Bennett holds some charm, but lacks more of that charm, as well as the charisma that Ryan Reynolds had in the original. Whatever happened to Kristin Cavalleri (...( read more)Kaitlin) in the original? Her character was far more interesting than Tara Reid's. Interesting side note: Bennett also starred in the "Dukes of Hazzard" prequel. This one is a lot better than that.
