Having never left rock bottom, Willie follows his angry sidekick again and puts on the Santa suit once more, only, this time, to rob a Chicago charity.
Still hilarious, still politically incorrect, still Thornton and Cox! Once more, the starting monologue, followed by the alley vomiting, mirrors the same reality Willie still lives on, highly indicating that he learned nothing from his past mistakes and that his life never took off. Thankfully for us, this is the case, and consequently, he accepts Marcus’ next job alongside his mother. The dysfunction in the family shows straight away, and we, as the audience, get to enjoy the results.
Even though not as funny as its predecessor, Bad Santa 2 is a must-watch during the Christmas period and the perfect antidote against… soppy, yawnsome, dead-boring romance/comedies which you’d rather watch paint dry. Thornton and Cox are still the Willie and Marcus we love, and Cathie Bates is a great addition to the cast! An extra round of applause deserves Brett Kelly for getting Thurman Merman’s physique to match his old self. Oh, and Christina Hendricks is as seductive as always…
