Far funnier than the original in every way...
Added 9/16/2009
So a piece of chocolate thought to be poop was really funny in the 1st.
But what is honestly funnier than seeing the guy from Unsolved Mysteries talk to some crazy guy who shoots an arrow in his behind and asks Chevy Case to suck the poison out? The "Mr. Sanderson" and "Mrs. Esterhouse" thing makes me laugh hysteristically. The effect of the gopher goes up a hundred notches, while character situations with the girl (people hear like there suits black) after high society, the father, his girlfriend, the one guys wife (don't make a scene my dear)...Dan Akyrod's character is beyond hysterical.
Perhaps because I am only 20 and first saw this movie when I was 13, and saw this one first that I prefer it, that perhaps watching the 1st seems like watching a similar movie rather than the other way around. But I find the rich people being forced to work at the construction site far funnier than a man just being hit in the lower region by a golf ball.
I was also not very moved by the relationship with the caddy's in the 1st with the pregnancy and silly "what a relief" scene that couldn't decide if it was meant to be serious or not. In this 2nd one, a non-similar but actually serious scene with the girl walking out on her father because of "you took a perfectly good country club and turned it into Coney Island" worked very well. I only felt comedy in the original and not much care for characters, while in this one, I got both. I need both of those for a comedy to work for me.
I do enjoy the 1st, but I love this extremely enjoyable sequel far better and do not understand all of the negative reviews at all. I really wish there was a Caddyshack 3.

Worst movie ever made.

Caddyshack will probably forever be one of the greatest golf comedies of all time. Caddyshack II will be known as the WORST golf movie of all time.

I love this sequel
Added 11/8/2008
I loved this movie as a kid. Grew older and preferred the first Caddyshack and spit on this one. Now, I'm back to loving this one more.
What I love about this film is the old-school humor of physical slapstick, cartoon surrealism and character-driven story. Jackie Mason is great as one of the 80's weirdest protagonists. Robert Stack tops Ted Knight's sarcastic straight man. But the characters of Randy Quaid and Dan Aykroyd steal the show.
Summing the movie up: The last shot is of an animatronic gopher poppin' and lockin' to impress a poodle. Classic comedy.

Why would the exploding golf ball blow up when it apparently hits the melon and when it is struck by a putter, but not when it is hit by a titanium driver? Why would a gopher want to have sex with a poodle? You'll be asking yourself questions like these and will curse losing 99 minutes you can never get back if you watch this total waste of a movie. Worst...Movie...Ever.

Only if you're a collector and want to finish your Caddyshack series!

Seriously, I hadn't seen this movie for quite some time until a month ago. I bought it, thinking that it would be as funny as I remembered it 10 years ago. I was wrong. Everything falls short in this movie, except for Randy Quaid, who's a scene stealer. I'd only recommend this one for those people who collect movies and want to finish off their Caddyshack collection.
