Producers George Jackson and Doug McHenry did not wait to start the construction of a sequel to the highly successful House Party .
Following the death of his father, Kid (Christopher Reid) receives from the parish an scholarship. So he returned to university, the same as his girlfriend Sidney (Tisha Campbell). Play (Christopher Martin) has an opportunity to record a demo with his buddy Kid. The latter is too busy with his studies and declined the offer, but unwittingly Play uses money from the register.
Everything starts to spin Kid: the seductive producer with the money evaporates, Sidney walks away, his teacher asked him a dissertation and is obliged in addition to working in a fast food ... To recover their funds, Bilal (Martin Lawrence), Play and Kid organize a party then.
The film is necessarily dedicated to Robin "Pops" Harris, who played the early retirement of Kid in the first part. More generally, it is filmed with some talent (for a very tight budget of just $ 5 million), and keeps the spirit light the first game. The character of Professor of Afro-American civilization played by Georg Stanford Brown and feminist activist played by Queen Latifah brings a dose of thought, without being stun.
A suite rather successful, therefore, in line with the characters and atmosphere created by Reginald Hudlin. Like him, George Jackson and Doug McHenry make you laugh without inflicting the public with grotesque caricatures of African-American community. The cast, many return to their previous role: the duo Kid N 'Play Christopher Reid and Christopher Martin-Full Force and the trio, Martin Lawrence, Tisha Campbell, Gene Allen and Daryl Mitchell.
Queen Latifah is added to the band while the oldest are still in the spotlight with Georg Stanford Brown, Helen Martin, Tony Burton, George Fisher (who was the stunt coordinator of and Melinda Blacula ) and stunt the Blax 'Julius LeFlore and Bob Minor. Finally, note the brief appearance of Whoopie Goldberg, not even credited in the credits.
