Moviegoers are saying
This long-awaited sequel to the beloved mockumentary classic has divided audiences, with many feeling it lacks the sharp wit and spontaneity of the original. While some appreciate seeing the band back together and enjoy scattered moments of cleverness, most agree it feels like leftover material that should have stayed on the cutting room floor.

The best scenes in Spinal Tap II are either solid improvisational sessions between the three leads as the band tries to recover its long chemistry or sidebars with Nigel.

Spinal Tap II: The End Continues may not have the brown MM joke or cultish appeal of its original, but it gets great and lovable mileage out of just how good those first jokes were – mini-Stonehenge replica included. You’d have to be a curmudgeon not to think it was fantastic fun.

It’s nice to see Reiner, McKean, Guest, and Shearer acknowledge their age and have some fun again, even if they never come close to matching the invention and creativity of the old Spinal Tap.
