Major League II (1994)

Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

The original "Major League" had a distinct heart that's all but gone this lackluster sequel. Retreading the first movie in nearly every way, "Major League II" takes the lazy way out and turns these great characters into cartoons for cheap laughs. There's no way the Rick Vaughn we know would've gone full-on cleancut endorsement boy, and making all of these guys into complacent wimps after just six months is ridiculous. Where's Harris? Why is Hayes suddenly an actor? The best parts of this movie were all of Rube's scenes and Tanaka's intro, but they couldn't make up for Charlie Sheen's nodded-off performance. It's not a bad movie, but it does have "meh" written all over it.5/10

This movie is almost totally flat. The first one in the series was already uneven, but the end saved the day, and really got you involved in the success of the Indians.In this installment, things just happen for no reason. For awhile the Indians are bad, for no real reason. Then suddenly they get very good. Why? Who knows.Until we get to the final games, the humor is lame to downright disabled. Bob Ueker's character becomes an embarrassment, as does the Japanese player from Toledo. The movie just meanders along, going nowhere.There was talent involved in the making of this movie, but not in the writing of this script. Couldn't they have found a script doctor to make this better?

i'm of two minds about this movie.on the one hand,i though it was funnier than the first,with some very comical scenes.on the other hand,,to me, the movie felt preachy and schmaltzy in the inspiration dept.i found it a bot too heavy handed.there is a running gag involving a "bandwagon jumping" fan in the stands that got old and tired quickly.also,the story was a bit of a stretch,with some bog leaps in logic.yeah,i know,this type of movie is not always driven by logic,but it was still a bit too much to believe,even so.having said that,the movie was quite entertaining.i gave the first "Major League" movie a 6/10,and for me,Major League 2" is also a 6/10

The first "Major League" was enjoyable (even if it wasn't great or anything) whereas this cash-in sequel is basically just to suck the money out of a film that made more cash at the box office than anyone expected.The first "Major League" came out in '87 and this one in '94; the seven-year gap surely didn't help much with profit. As far as I'm aware this didn't do nearly as well as the original in theaters and it's not hard to understand why.Most of the original cast returns - mainly Tom Berenger and Charlie Sheen though - to once again spoof baseball. It's not as wacky a comedy as, say, "Hot Shots!", but it's close.The real problem with this film is that it's basically extending a story that doesn't need to be extended and recycling a lot of jokes we've already seen. It's worth seeing if you catch it on television, but don't go out of your way - especially if you didn't care much for the original.
