This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Compared to the first movie, Neighbors 2 is a disappointment. The sorority is not as funny as the frat and is just used as a device to promote feminism (which is so forced). The sorority actresses are HORRIBLE. Seriously no one talks like that. You can tell a middle aged person wrote the script. Zac Efron and Seth Rogan are hilarious once again yet they can't save the movie. There are so many plot holes to the movie as well. Why couldn't the adults call the police about the weed at the tailgate? Was Rogan and his wife so stupid to not look at their cell phone contacts? And much more. Ugh. This movie sucks.… Expand

This movie is so awful. With no humor, and tons of stupidity, the film is just a bore to watch. A true waste of time. If you're looking for an awful comedy to watch, look no further, Neighbors 2 is the movie for you

And the gay and femimenist propaganda disgusted me and made me not want to watch it. Besides that, the jokes were extremly forcedon you and i felt awkward in the theaters as people seemed to not laugh at the attempted failed jokes. They were so desperate for laughs it wasnt funny(pun intended). The awkward silence in the audience exemplified that! One last thing the disgusting scenes. spoiler alert*** Periods thrown at the window, puking in the face while having sex and the toddler playing with **** was **** forced, gross and stupid. Dont get me wromg it had funny moments but most of it was filler garbage to desperatly get laughs and it didnt work. Some people walked out the theater it was so bad. I will admit the only funny person was Seth Rogan or Zach Efron and I dont even like him.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've never reviewed a movie on metacritic before. In fact, I've never reviewed anything on metacritic before and had to create this account (and go through an email verification). This is the most painful movie I've ever seen. The movie is the most unfunny comedy I've ever had the displeasure of paying money for; it's more political than The Interview, less intelligent than than a Larry the Cable Guy feature film, and more awkward than the juvenile imbeciles featured in the movie (and I don't just mean the 18-year-old girl antagonists). While the movie occasionally tries to mix up some stereotypes for a genuinely funny moment, it is consistently and swiftly ruined by bad acting and writing. If you mind the hospital bill from the self inflicted gouges in your eyes and the long waits between any genuinely funny moment (and the fact that you'd have to live with spending ~$10 on this piece of propaganda for the rest of your life), then this movie is probably not for you. If, for some reason, you are a masochistic and want to mix up the usual physical pain for psychological instead, then is movie is for you. Usually my friends and I can make any movie funny by providing some color commentary among our group, but this movie is so blatantly awful that even 7 close friends could not make the best of it. In short, stay away. For the love of Christ, stay far, far away. Movie gets a 1 for at least being semi-coherent.

Tldr: I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. Save the 10 bucks.… Expand

Dumb. Dumb, dumb dumb. I mean, this already was a movie, when they did the original. Just girls. The same jokes, the same cliches. I can't even make it through this dumb movie.

Not funny. Full of useless bad language. I had to leave after watching the first 20 minutes. I was hoping it would get better, but it just kept getting worse. Watching someone getting vomit in their face...not good. Having to hideNot funny. Full of useless bad language. I had to leave after watching the first 20 minutes. I was hoping it would get better, but it just kept getting worse. Watching someone getting vomit in their face...not good. Having to hide "bongs" to show their home while a little girl plays with moms **** was just wrong. Reminds me why I don't pay money to go to the movies if this is what Hollywood it putting out for our viewing pleasure. I had hope that this would be an entertaining comedy, but it was just a waste of my time and money. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE to anyone!… Expand

There are a couple of laugh-out-loud funny moments (two to be exact), but its not enough to rescue this movie.

Its a sequel in the most literal sense, if you've seen the first there are no surprises at all. Even if you haven't seen the first film there aren't any real surprises, the plot is shallow and obvious all the way from start to end. Its nauseously politically correct, and for a comedy that doesn't work at all. Its overly preachy and not very funny, not a good formula for a comedy. It also has all the usual college tropes, and is very unimaginative, just a quick cash-in on the success of the first film.… Expand

I thought the first film was a mistake and now there is another one. I thought only people are reacting negatively, it could be much better than the previous one, but this is really a crap. I'm as a film fanatic hate myself to criticise a film like a film critic does, but there is no other option. I don't know who are the target audience, because it was too sexy for teens and definitely adults won't enjoy unless they are similar to what in the film depicted.

I don't know why, but I disliked all film with Zac Efron in it. Beside, I'm disappointed in Chloe Grace joining this team. A bad decision, she will regret doing it in the future, maybe she's already. Regarding Seth and Byrne, I don't blame them doing this, at least theirs part were much better than the others. Yet there is no laughs, the film ran with totally dry. Maybe the youngsters would enjoy it than anybody else, because I'm sure the grown-up have already seen better ones in the similar style in the 80s and 90s.

I hope this is it, no more sequels. Particularly not to end up like 'American Pie', but nobody can stop that if B filmmakers take over from here on. At least first film was much better compared between these two. If you are an adult, sure you should skip it. Zac and Chloe won the Teen Choice awards, so now you know who should watch it. No offense to those who liked it, but for me it is one of the top five worst films of the year. I never write the reviews like this, but I feel bad for what this film made me to do.
