Yes, everyone who is saying it's pretty much the same as the first film is correct. So I can see why people would be turned off by the unnecessary sequel. That being said, if you enjoyed the first one, then you should know this is pretty much a continuance of the first film...same formula, same concept, same villain, same kinds of characters.
For some reason, though, I still enjoyed watching it. It was still really funny, and it didn't leave me bored. It actually made me want to watch the sequel.
As long as you're not hoping for a new twist on this simple saga, you will have fun. Movies do not always have to be deep or meaningful. And in this type of genre (horror, comedy), they don't always have to bring something new....although it would be nice. Sometimes, keeping the same formula is fine as long as it's done well, not too long, not trying to be more than it is, etc.
