There is one thing radically wrong with this movie - Dolph Lundgren. I know it will seem shallow and superficial to comment on a character's make up - but Lundgren's make up was so bad, so incredibly bad, that it overwhelmed the already light story line. All I could think about were the incredibly deep facial wrinkles which made him look like a human Sharpei. At age 58 Lundgren is now a generation too old to have played this character successfully. Aside from Lundgren, this was a generic straight to video movie. There is not one new or innovative idea in the entire film. Cardboard characters and standard settings. The child actors in this movie had their moments, but they mostly came across as "hyperactive' rather than "cute". The rest of the cast is so bland that you will forget who they were half an hour after the movie.

What to expect from a sequel like this? I think it reached the highest goal it could. It's a paycheck for all involved. Dolph can have some fun (the kids too of course), if you lower your expectations to very very low, you may be able to enjoy this to a degree too. It is what it is and even if some had a lot of fun with the original (which was filmed/released a long time ago), I doubt many were yearning for a sequel. But that's how things work and if a title sounds familiar, investors are there and some people will watch it (guilty as charged, but I do watch almost anything as you can tell by my list of reviews ;o) ). So while I've seen worse (obviously), this is by the numbers ... You do the math (yes pun intended)

* mild spoilers?* First, I give Dolph Lundgren full credit for trying. I like the guy, I really do ... but this movie DOES NOT WORK. The good: Bill Bellamy isn't terrible. The kids are fairly cute. The bad: Everything else. This movie lacks the charm, fun and comic touches that worked in the original, never mind that the original wasn't hurting for a sequel. I tried to like it ... but NOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Save yourselves & just watch the original!

'KINDERGARTEN COP 2': Two and a Half Stars (Out of Five) A sequel to the 1990 hit action-comedy flick 'KINDERGARTEN COP' (starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, and directed by Ivan Reitman). This followup is more of a remake, than a sequel, and it stars Dolph Lundgren, as a new character (an FBI agent named Agent Reed). The film was directed by Don Michael Paul (who also helmed such other B- movies as 'HALF PAST DEAD', 'LAKE PLACID: THE FINAL CHAPTER', 'JARHEAD 2: FIELD OF FIRE' and 'TREMORS 5: BLOODLINES') and it was written by David H. Steinberg (who also wrote other B-comedy flicks, like 'SLACKERS' and 'AMERICAN PIE PRESENTS BOOK OF LOVE'). The movie costars Bill Bellamy, Darla Taylor, Fiona Vroom and Aleks Paunovic. The film is severely disappointing, if you're a fan of the original (or good movies in general). Agent Reed (Lundgren) is a very conservative, and dedicated (but slightly crazy), FBI agent. Agent Sanders (Bellamy) is his more rational, and by the book, partner. The two must infiltrate a kindergarten class, on a new assignment, in order to find an important flash drive. Due to the fact that the students there already know who Sanders is, from previously being interviewed by him, Reed must pose as a kindergarten teacher. The modern, and very politically correct, school environment presents a huge challenge for Reed (and his old school ways). The film is adequately directed (for what it is), and decently acted, but it's not funny. The jokes are painful to watch at times, and the whole movie just seems pointless. Maybe the original film would feel the same way, if I actually went back and watched it again, but I did love it when I was a kid. Lundgren is at least likable in the lead; although not nearly as much so, as Schwarzenegger was. Watch our movie review show 'MOVIE TALK' at: https://youtu.be/_3w7EWxV5vg

Alright, i saw the first movie as a kid, and it starred my (then) favourite "actor" in Arnold Swartzenagger. So of course as a kid i liked the first one. Nowhere near an iconic or classic as Commando, Terminator 2 or whatever, but still a good time. I picked it up years later and watch it again and my tough changed a bit. I tough it was a bit funny still but i guess its the kind of humour that work either on kids or old parents. Anyway when i saw this was released i had to give it a look. I like Dolph Lundgren, i mean sure he is a more mobile Steven Seagal, starring in the same type of scripts and same type of roles as him, usually in the same type of budget movies. But i guess i just like those b action movies... So i gave it a look and ... well... its not as bad as it may look. Despite having nothing storywise to do with the first movie it does follow a similar formula, and call it a sequel or a remake, it does not matter. Its similarly entertaining as the first one and its by no mean a "bad movie". But my biggest problem with it is Mister Lundgren's age. He is acting and somewhat playing the role of a 35 years old (max) dude while he clearly look in his advanced 50s at least. And of course they decided to give the supporting role to a beautiful actress that look like a barely 26 years old hottie. IMDb list her as being 29 years old. The fact is, she is way too young for Lundgren and this make the whole movie awkward and unbelievable. They could had easily go with a 39 to 43 years old good looking mature lady instead, which would had made it a bit more believable. Lets face it, Dolph does not have that much comedy background, and the movie never show how a "badass" he is supposed to be unlike Arny in the first movie. They could had give the role to Kevin Hart and it would had been much funnier and believable. Well if anything Lundgren's partner remind me of him and have the same french voice actor too, and he serve the comic relief role somewhat. So in the end, this movie may make you ask why they made it in the first place, but then the real question should be why not? The first one was never "that good" to begin with, and it wasn't that terrible. This a family movie, one that you should watch with your kids and have a fun Saturday night. I saw Dolph do better, i saw him do much worst, but in the end the movie is serving its purpose and as i said my most biggest gripe is the age factor when it comes to Dolph, who act like and is surrounded by people half his age and just do like he is 35.

Within the 20 minutes of viewing this movie both I and my companion agreed that this is most definitely not a kiddy movie, unlike the first one. We'd never let a child under 13 view it (cussing, sexuality, et al). Strangely, things started more adult and ended up on a total G audience note. Usually it's the opposite. This is no big Hollywood production, it's B class, but it undeniably fun to watch. Dolph isn't Schwarzenegger, but he delivers the same sort of cluelessness. Much of the same old plot was pulled from the original Kindergarten Cop, but there were more spins, a different lead, and very different kids, VERY! These are kind of kids whose parents pay $50k-year so that they can have "advantaged" children. The type of offspring who'll have a weakly convincing panic attack if someone even mentions 'Gluten' or uses regular plastic. I found this gross and unreal. If children like this actually exist... I quit life. If you haven't seen the first one, absolutely skip this. You're better off trying to suffocate yourself using a hairdryer. If you've seen the first however, and enjoyed it, then you'll probably be amused but not enthused at this extremely late follow-up.

I went into this movie with low expectations.i picked it up for a very low price.however,i have to say,it's actually not a bad movie.i chuckled more than a few times,and laughed out loud two or three times.it's a pleasant enough diversion.Dolph Lundgren plays the main role here,and he is pretty good in the role.he handles the comedic bits pretty well.Bill Bellamy plays his partner,and is also good.but Danny Watley is very funny as their overbearing,always shouting boss,as is Michael P.Northey as the somewhat dim witted,clueless Hal.it's a decent movie,especially if you keep your expectations low.i would recommend it for a watch.Kindergarten Cop 2 is a 6/10

Lundgren was 60 years old when he made this. Sure - in good shape, as the preening workout scene portrayed. That doesn't make his drooling over girls young enough to be his granddaughters any less disgusting. He's completely clueless about the times we live in, which makes his confused face look even older. I shut this off at the line dancing and mechanical bull. Seriously - Urban Cowboy from 1980? Young people would think it's retro hip but in this case it's probably the last cool thing the guy did - 35 years ago.
