Eight years after “Super Troopers 2,” the third film is reviewed as routine franchise upkeep rather than an event, with the latest sequel judged broadly disposable despite the cast’s familiar chemistry.
Broken Lizard’s core quintet returns as aging Vermont troopers, but the plot leans on a Farva-Thorny wedding sabotage farce and a thin Canadian drug-ring subplot that the review says expose a shortage of fresh ideas.
Disney-backed and made with less struggle than the 2018 sequel, the film lacks the underdog appeal that helped distinguish “Super Troopers 2,” even if its cheap, scrappy tone remains intact.
“Super Troopers 2” raised nearly $5 million in crowdfunding and grossed $32 million, but the review argues this second sequel feels less like popular demand than a cult comedy troupe amusing itself 25 years after the original.
