It starts to get a bit awkward how much Steve Martin loves his daughter and doesn't care about his son. He's such a soppy git about her it's almost sickening, and throughout this sequel, it becomes a bit of a joke about where his male kid is. Story continues... "Matty's staying at a friend's" Story continues... "Matty's out for the day." etc. Even in the first film, it was somewhat similar. Matty asked about how to walk down the aisle, Steve Martin showed him for six seconds and then sent him to bed so he could get soppy about his daughter again. Matty is apparently just always in the way of the story, so they shove him off out of the way at every opportunity. Everything is all about the women in his life, and Matty may as well just go f himself, honestly. Watch it again and pay attention to where Matty is. Gives a whole new perspective.

THIS WAS AWESOME AND SO MUCH FUN AND SO MUCH BETTER THAN 1st ONE ALTHOUGH I REALLY ENJOYED THE 1st THIS JUST FLOWED SO SMOOTHLY WITH ONE LAUGH AFTER ANOTHER AND WITH A SOLID FEEL GOOD STORY TO REEL IT ALL IN. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS AND I PUT NUMBER 1 A 6/10 AND NUMBER 2 FOR ME WAS A 10/10 GOOD FUN, GREAT ACTING WITH A SOLID STORY.

If you like the first one, you like this as well. It´s a good continuation of the story that makes perfect sense. Probably a little less comic and more emotional than the first one which isn´t meant to be a negative.

Father of the Bride Part II is a syrupy sequel that leans heavily into sentimentality, and while it’s not quite as good as the first, it remains a charmingly fun watch. Steve Martin returns with his signature high-strung energy as George Banks, who finds himself in a comedic double-whammy when both his daughter and his wife announce they are pregnant at the same time. The plot is undeniably predictable and doubles down on the "fluff" factor, but the chemistry between the returning cast and Martin Short’s eccentric antics as Franck Eggelhoffer make it an endearing comfort movie. It captures that specific brand of 90s warmth that, despite its sugary coating, still feels like a cozy visit with old friends.

Keaton being pregnant was too silly. Touching ending, though.
