<\/a>There really was no need for a Bad Santa 2<\/em><\/strong> as the original has become a holiday cult classic and it has been 13 years since. Sure, it does have the mean streak that made the first popular, unfortunately the humor mostly falls flat.<\/p>\n

THE MOVIE \u2014 2.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Plot Synopsis: <\/strong>Fueled by cheap whiskey and greed, Willie Soke (BILLY BOB THORNTON) teams up once again with his angry sidekick, Marcus (TONY COX), to knock off a Chicago charity, on Christmas Eve no less, run by curvaceous Diane (CHRISTINA HENDRICKS). But the arrival of Willie\u2019s horror story of a mother, Sunny (KATHY BATES), and \u201cthe kid\u201d \u2013 Thurman Merman (BRETT KELLY) \u2013 may upset their plan.<\/p>\n

Quick Hit Review: Bad Santa 2<\/em><\/strong> is yet another needless sequel released over a decade later (reminds me of Sin City: A Dame to Kill For<\/em>) and worse yet, outside of a couple of jokes, doesn\u2019t provide many laughs even if technically it\u2019s in keeping, or the spirit if you will, of the original. Billy Bob Thornton and Brett Kelly at least had funny moments so it\u2019s not a complete waste of time, but I have no desire to revisit this again.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
