Went back and watched this one again because I had completely forgotten what it was about, other than being a sequel to the original.
The original had more of a realistic sense of what summer camp is like. This had none of that. Not sure there's a single joke that's good in this entire movie. And there's a random alien subplot for some reason. Basically one camp is going broke. Camp across the lake wants to buy them out. So they'll settle it how any normal people would, a boxing match. In the meantime, the young kids are busy trying to teach the alien to fit in and not be noticed.
Basically everything that made the original Meatballs a classic, is non existent in this sequel.
I'm having a hard time thinking of a worse movie.
