The 1999 original Deuce Bigalow's gloriously dumb, offensive comedy has more than its share of fans, who will be pleased to learn that this sequel is well up (or down, if you prefer) to scratch. Having first time director Mike Bigelow take charge of the film must surely be part of the humour.

Deuce Bigalow (Rob Schneider) finds himself with no other option than to return to his unlikely profession after his former pimp T.J. Hicks (Eddie Griffin) is accused of murdering some of Europe's top gigolos. Bigalow is convinced the real killer is a woman and, going undercover in more sense than one, he must get back into the business of pleasuring the ladies in order to trap the killer and clear his friend's name.

Of course this won't be easy especially as he has the European Union of man-whores on his case. Inevitably he also comes into very close contact with many strange clients along the way, including one who takes obsessive-compulsive disorder to new extremes. Look out for appearances by Johnny Vaughan as himself, Rachel Stevens as Louisa 'the dirty girl' and Kelly Brook. Just remember not to fully engage your brain and you might experience more than a few involuntary laughs throughout this film.

Fans will appreciate the wealth of funny extras here including: Deleted scenes, Comedy Central's Reel Comedy Special, a two-part making of, Man-Ho 101, Casting Lounge and TJ's Float Crib featurettes plus So You Want To Be A Man-Whore 'infomercials'.
