(Credit IMDb) Get out your white socks! This time our suave college heroes hit the road for fun and fraternity in Florida. Another opportunity for brains to triumph over brawn. How can the girls possibly resist their geeky charms?
What a poor excuse for a sequel! I liked the first one, but it wasn't exactly clamoring for a sequel. This one screams laziness and forgets what made the first one successful. Anthony Edwards is reduced to a glorified cameo in this one, Robert Carradine is forced to carry much of the crappy material that he can't do much with. Betty Childs (Julia Montgomery) The girl Lewis gets together with at the end of the first movie doesn't appear in this one. As a matter of fact, Courtney Thorne- Smith becomes his love interest in this one. I like her as an actress, but she lacks the spunk to be that interesting. Ostensibly, Julia Montgomery turned down to reprise her role because she was supposed to have dumped Lewis and she felt it would have negated all the changes her character made in this movie. It was a wise choice. Followed by two more sequels that went STV. I would skip this one if I were you, it provides you with no laughs and it's dull

A boring, unwarranted catastrophe
Creamy legs! Creamy LEGS! CREAMY LEGS!!!
The nerds are on the road and attracted by thin flaunting girls like any man. Unfortunately, they are nerds and socially awkward. Fortunately, there is a bevvy of super slender eye candy to be taken in.
They are sent on a wild goose chase ... but ... they will have their revenge!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lost the comedy
The Tri-Lambs of Adams College goes to the United Fraternity Conference in Fort Lauderdale. Lewis Skolnick (Robert Carradine),Dudley Booger Dawson (Curtis Armstrong),Lamar Latrelle (Larry B. Scott),Arnold Poindexter (Timothy Busfield),and Harold Wormser (Andrew Cassese) find that they are picked on once again. Gilbert Lowell (Anthony Edwards) has a broken leg and has to stay home. Sunny Carstairs (Courtney Thorne-Smith) is the nice hotel clerk. Ogre (Donald Gibb) follows the guys down to Florida. The acting manager Buzz Mussinger (Ed Lauter) cancels the nerds' reservation and they are left with a rundown hotel. Roger (Bradley Whitford) is the new douche leader.
There are some missing nerds. Anthony Edwards was probably busy and could only be in a cameo. It would also have been great to have the girls back. Some lost is to be expected but the movie starts off at a lower level. Bradley Whitford isn't jock enough to be their nemesis. Again I wish Ted McGinley would come back to take revenge. As for the nerds, it's strange to have them be confident. It's not as funny. The charm of the original is that they discovered their individual powers. This one has none of the charm and lost the comedy to boot.
