Reviews
Let's Make Laugh II has received mixed to negative reviews from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, the film holds a low rating of 4.8/10, indicating general dissatisfaction among viewers. Critics have pointed out that while the film attempts to deliver laughs through its comedic scenarios, it often falls flat due to weak scriptwriting and uneven pacing. One critic noted, "Despite some charming moments, the film struggles to maintain a cohesive narrative, making the humor feel forced rather than natural." Another observation from retro Hong Kong cinema reviewers highlights that although the movie captures the period’s style, it lacks the freshness and energy that made the original popular. Additionally, there are comments about the film's reliance on slapstick and cliché gags, which may not resonate well with modern viewers or those unfamiliar with the cultural context. However, some fans of the genre appreciate its nostalgic value and Derek Yee's attempt at mixing humor with social commentary, calling it "a quirky snapshot of 1980s comedy cinema." Overall, the film receives praise for its comedic ambition but criticism for execution and depth.
