As so many people have written, an over long, self indulgent film about self absorbed, over privileged, ungrateful people. One particularly nasty episode was in the school principal's office where lying is portrayed as a smart thing to do. Trying to moralise about a gross out comedy is pretty pointless but not as pointless as this whole venture. And at the end ( I had skipped an hour) the characters agreed to not learn anything and revert to where they started. Stop making this kind of movie.

I didn't like that much but it shocked me that it was a kind of a sequel but they could've done another with there daughter grown up basically about Ben and Alison again

This could have been condensed down to an hour and a half and it would have been great. By the end I didn't even care what happened, I just wanted it to be over. Some really funny parts though. Shame.
