I am surprised that many don't care for this sequel to the brilliant original (as I am that many actually like the "Christmas" and "Vegas" outings which I thought were atrocious). Maybe it's because my wife and I were living in Europe when we saw this and could really relate. (SPOILER) An especially funny part for us was the French waiter and the subtitles, if you've never been in a country where you don't speak the language maybe you won't find it as humorous, but for us it really hit home because in the back of our minds we realized that many of the folks we encountered could be saying anything about us and we wouldn't know the difference. Good stuff!

I respectfully disagree with most reviewers here, this flick is funny!
