YMMV / Nutty Professor II: The Klumps

Go To

  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Dean Richmond gets raped by a hamster. One year later, Larry Miller becomes a principal in Max Keeble's school, where the titular character spikes his cologne with Pheromones causing various animals to try the same thing to him.
  • Nightmare Fuel:
    • After Sherman proposes to Denise, they go out to see the original version of the movie Cape Fear, where they hear an obnoxious guy smoking a cigar and laughing too loud for them to enjoy the movie. (Which is an homage to the 1991 remake, ironically enough.) When Sherman politely ask him to stop, he turns around to reveal himself as Buddy Love. This gives Sherman the most epic Oh, Crap! look on his face. The music in the scene makes it even more scarier than funny.
    • Later on, he starts to harass Sherman and Denise. At first, Buddy simply just wants what he claims is his share of the youth formula, but when Sherman says no, he vows to destroy him there. It's all supposed to sound funny and over-the-top, but due to Eddie's delivery he comes across more like a deranged stalker out for blood.
      Buddy: Sherman!!!!! SEE YOU SOON SHERMAN!!!!! SHERMAAAAAAAN!!!!!!
  • No Yay: The hamster and Dean Richmond, who both hint at being interested in continuing their relationship.
  • Questionable Casting: Janet Jackson as not only a professor, but the result of two rocket scientists.
  • Replacement Scrappy: Denise Gaines from the second film is generally seen as an inferior substitute for Carla Purty, especially since her character and dialogue seem to be a copy-paste replacement for Carla, outside of the scene where Sherman explains to Buddy that he and Carla decided they were Better as Friends.
  • Sequelitis: Everyone agreed it wasn't as good as the first, specially for upping the Toilet Humor and Vulgar Humor to the point it was disgusting instead of funny.
  • Squick: Every scene involving Buddy and Grandma Klump. Buddy finds out that Sherman's hiding the Youth formula at his parents' house. So naturally he tries to break in to get it. However what he doesn't know was that, his breaking and entering was in the middle of Denise's bachelorette party, where Granny hired a stripper. Granny mistakes Buddy for the stripper and Buddy tries to charm his way out like before, only for it to work too well, causing her to be infatuated with Buddy not knowing he's part of Sherman's split personality. Buddy finally gets the Youth formula and is about to make his escape only for Granny to show up and strip naked, to Buddy's Horror. (Luckily, we don't see what buddy sees.) She allows him to leave if she at least lets her kiss him. To which Buddy agrees, thinking he's gonna get a peck on the cheek. Instead he gets an open mouth, mouth toothless long tongued frencher from Granny instead. Cue Buddy running out of the house to find the nearest bushes to puke in.... and crying afterwards.
  • Tear Jerker:
    • When getting rid of Buddy turns Klump (apparently) irreversibly into a ditz, the now dumber (and amnesiac) Klump is the reason viewers need a tissue supply when watching the movie. And when he sees his love interest for the first time after that happens...
      Denise: [in tears] Sherman, what is my name?
      Klump: ... Pretty lady?
    • The look on Cletus' face is also heartbreaking.
