A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

It's a different take on an old concept - generations collide, etc. But, face it, it's current. It's something that a lot of us over age 30 have to deal with - changing technologies and we wonder how in the heck we're supposed to stay up to speed with them. Heck, I'm an IT guy - and have been for 20+ years. I LOVE technology. I've explored new stuff, though usually on the back-end. (The servers that host the stuff, the networks that keep them connected, etc.) But, I don't tweet. *gasp*The characters are fun, the concepts don't go all that deep, but it's some lighthearted fare that is good for some laughs. I've found myself laughing out loud at some of the jokes, and Joel McHale is rocking it.

I don't get all the bad reviews! This has become a favorite of mine. I watch it with my daughter who's gen Y (I think) as she's 18. We both laugh so what more can you want out of a show. I think it started off slow but picked up speed when they made the main character Joel McHale sort of a cynical bad boy. I hope they keep the series as my daughter and I both really enjoy it. Some reviewers seem to take the comedy personally. I think all generations are portrayed (comically) in a not so flattering light. But it's funny!

The main punchline to every joke is Stereotyping Generations. The jokes are that "Jack", the Generation X adventurer guy, is oblivious to social media, and really, everything about the internet past 2003. The other jokes are that the 20-year-old Millenials live the internet and constantly make references to it and can't fathom 10 seconds without it. THIS ISN'T FUNNY WHEN THE WHOLE SHOW IS JUST THAT.The show is not funny and not entertaining. I don't recall laughing once. The episodes are painful to watch and I barely made it through them. I don't understand why Stephen Fry would agree to be on this. I guess the paycheck was good.The show is vapid, stereotypical, unfunny, and tries to give a moral lesson about offending delicate human flowers.To sum up the show: "SOCIAL MEDIA OMG YASS", "The internet, WHAT IS THAT?"

So, this is my first review. The show is really, really good. Unfortunately, the younger people/viewers (millenials in the show) probably will not going to enjoy it. Sadly, because it portraits them as they are, not all, of course. The differences between the outdoor Jack, and the indoors crew shows more than some jokes. Just look at the scene with the HR woman and the lawyer: true as hell. I hope it endures. The cast is great and, as always, Stephen Fry is awesome. Joel McHale and Susannah Fielding are also very good. And if one pays attention, there will be some kind of "thing" (again) between those two.
