Rotten Tomatoes® Score

TOMATOMETER®

Critics Consensus: It reunites most of the original cast and rounds them up for a trip to Fort Lauderdale for spring break, but Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise forgets to pack enough jokes or compelling characters to make it through its 89-minute running time.

Barbara Shulgasser

Nerds triumph in '80s comedy; some sex, profanity, drugs.

Christian Science Monitor

David Sterritt

If these guys are so smart, why do they win their final victory with nothing more subtle than a punch in the mouth, backed up by a military tank?

It's a gross parody of its original. And since the original was a gross parody to begin with, the whole thing begins to seem gaseous, overbright, hideously inflated, as if all the bodily function jokes were about to belch it right off the screen.

By all evidence, to make Nerds II, it took over 1,000 people with an aggregate IQ of under 1.
