No, often the opposite is true. You don't need music upstaging the actors. What if it gets more laughs? So the sequel to the Nutty Professor features an all-star cast of R&B and hip-hop stars who do the serious stuff best. The smooth R&B tracks are offset by ferocious hip-hop grooves, creating a constantly shifting scene of alternating moods. Just as sentimentality hits its peak with Case's "Missing You", things are seriously shaken up by Method Man's "Even If". Sometimes the extremes seem a bit much: do Brian McKnight fans want to share time with Sisqo (featuring Foxy Brown) and Eminem (here with Redman), and vice versa? This may be a case where hearing it all in the context of the movie would help listeners make the less-than-obvious connections. As a special enticement, the final track is a preview from the new LL Cool J's G.O.A.T. --Rob O'Connor

Love, in much the same way that Jerry Lewis did in his brilliant original: a representation of the Id out of control that plays like an admission of the actor's off-screen sins. In the sequel, Murphy expands on his Klump family from the first film and makes them major characters. Consequently, his dark side has plenty more places to express itself, particularly through the oversexed grandmother, Sherman's aggressively impotent father, and his just plain surly uncle, as well as Buddy Love (all played by Murphy).The movie opens with professor Sherman Klump barely holding onto his sanity as his internal Buddy Love makes him say inappropriate things. He decides to extract his mutant Buddy Love gene (a sort of genetic version of electroshock therapy), but afterward is unable to maintain his original personality and intelligence. Sherman is the most bland character of the bunch, and the audience gets stuck with his boring romance with fellow professor Janet Jackson, his struggle to be nice, and generic intrigue surrounding a Fountain of Youth formula he developed. When it's not trying too hard to be nice--heck, one character is anally raped by a giant hamster--the movie works. The moral of the story is that Sherman needs to reconnect with his inner Buddy Love. That goes for Murphy, too. --Andy Spletzer, Amazon.com

---------- Story -----------
Professor Sherman Klump,(played by the king of comedy Eddie Murphy) is getting married. And the Klump family could not be more delighted. His fiancée Denise Gaines (Janet Jackson) is thrilled to become a Klump, and with her appetite she’ll fit right in with the bizarre but highly hilarious antics that go on. Granny Klump is just excited for Sherman as she tells him he will finally engage in intimate relations.
Sherman thought he had seen the last of his alter ego, but Buddy Love is back and trying to make it on his own. Having done his best to keep Buddy buried in his subconscious, the professor is horrified to find him resurfacing in unwanted and painfully inconvenient outbursts, threatening his marriage plans. Using Denise’s cutting-edge DNA research, Sherman decides to rid himself of his monstrous nemesis –and his disruptive outbursts–once and for all by extracting Buddy’s DNA from his system.
This turns out to be a massive mistake, as Buddy Love will certainly not go quietly. Buddy wants to steal Sherman’s revolutionary formula, which restores youth ness, and vitality making a person transform into a younger person. It is hot property worth millions of dollars and is so lucrative everyone wants their hands on it and are willing to pay anything.
Desperate to keep it from Buddy, Sherman hides the serum in the Klump family home, thinking it will be safe. But papa Klump finds the formula in the fridge and decides to drink it. Not knowing what it wa he transforms into a younger person and goes to a disco hall strutting his stuff. He picks a fight with a old geriatric and just as he was about to fight back he transforms back into his normal self. This doesn’t go un-noticed by the convenience of passing by, Buddy Love.
His instincts lead him to the Klump home, where Denise’s hen party is in full swing. Granny Klump orders a stripper and when she sees buddy Love creeping round she thinks her erotic desires will come to and advances on him. Tricking Granny Klump to telling him where the formula is, he thinks he has got away scotch free. But not before being seduced by a naked Granny Klump and having to kiss her on the lips!
---------------------------------------- Meet the Klumps if you dare !! -----------------------------------------
SHERMAN KLUMP Large and in charge, Sherman is a professor of biochemistry at Wellman College working on a revolutionary serum that may turn out to be the fountain of youth. Working "closely" with him is fellow professor Denise Gaines. Word around campus is that these two are a hot item. It sure seems like Sherman’s gotten his life back on track since his run-in with his alter ego, Buddy Love.
BUDDY LOVE Irresistible to most women but cant fight off the advances of granny klump and gives her erotic fantasies. He is back to create as much havoc as possible and steal the formula to make him a very rich man indeed.
MAMA KLUMP She is after some one on one attention from papa klump but would have more luck finding life on mars.
PAPA KLUMP Looks like the old man has lost his mojo in the sack and is desperately trying to find ways to get it back but is living in denial.
ERNIE KLUMP Just like a boomerang. Chuck it and it will come back. Ever since his divorce, he and his son have been sponging of his father.
GRANDMA KLUMP Older than the hills and with a body that won’t quit like her foul mouth, Granny Klump is the wise matriarch of the Klumps full of sharp wit. Any young blooded males beware of this sex crazed women she will be after you!
ERNIE, JR. This once-small fry is growing into manhood–and out of his pants. He idolizes his Uncle Sherman, but with great examples like his father and Papa Klump, how will he ever become the cherry out of the cherry basket??

She has sold over 45 million albums worldwide, and her 19 gold-certified singles are the most of any female recording artist in history.

The main song featured in the film though is the song by Janet Jackson and it goes well with the film.
************** Other details **************
This film has a 12 rating so this means it isn't for young children. Some of the gags in the film are slightly crude hence the rating. It runs for one hour and forty-three minutes. It has frequently mild references of language, comical scenes that have a nude sense of nature.
A good comedy sequel can be very far and few between. There have been so many attempts which fail to deliver the quality and standards set in the first films. This is a comical masterpiece that has carried on where it left off from the first and transformed it into a even bigger laugh out loud film that balances comedy with great acting and casting making this a hit.
Murphy does such a brilliant job on his characters that you do see them as separate entities and the way in which he has given each a different personality is award-winning stuff.
The thing that makes this such a hit is the very clever use of several Klump characters on the same screen at once boosts the feeling of watching an ensemble cast play the roles and again, hats off to Murphy's touch for this one.
The thing I noticed is the film is very scattered and at times slightly unstructured.
Also the plot may be something that people may find too silly and may not enjoy the film because of this. The pilfered plot though, is preferable to the utterly heinous performances from just about everyone concerned.
I have to admit it isn't a hard film to understand and the good thing there is if you have had a hard and stressful day it's nice to relax and watch something light hearted. Criticism of the film is pointless unless you have seen it to make judgement. Give this a fair try and you never know, you might like it.
This film does exactly what it says on the tin.So if you thoroughly enjoyed the first and haven’t yet seen the second now is your chance to have a great night in with a nice snack. This is definately a film to watch so sit back relax and enjoy.
Advantages: A few good laughs Disadvantages: Dismal storyline
...few years to follow up the 1996 original 'The nutty professor' but they have finally got around to doing it - how did they do? Not very well.
This could be for several different reasons. Maybe it's because the first was so funny that it would take a blinding sequal to match up to it. Maybe it's the storyline - the Klumps has a very forgettable storyline (which i will explain in full) and when you're halfway through the film you have to remind yourself ... ...themselves. In the first film they had small parts which were very funny - but they were small parts. This film, as the title suggests, is all about the Klump family and to be honest half the time i couldn't make out what the were saying or understand the jokes which probably spoilt the film for me.
So the storyline. Well professor Sherman Klump is still being haunted by Buddy love - his alter ego from the first film. Buddy makes the professor say ...

Advantages: The characters, the acting and it was funny Disadvantages: Who is this film for?
...almost everything. This was about the only thing left in the video store last night (Saturday night) that I hadn’t already seen. Oh also, I wanted to see it because Janet Jackson stars, and I’m a big fan of the Jackson family. Background. As you probably know, this is the sequel to the hugely-successful “The Nutty Professor” in which Eddie Murphy played “Professor Sherman Klump” a lovably, but very fat professor ... ...One very popular scene in the original film was where Prof. Sherman was eating dinner with his family, and the film’s producers have decided to expand that scene into a major storyline in this sequel. The film also stars Janet Jackson (as I already mentioned), is directed by Peter Segal. The Plot. Buddy Love - the anti-Sherman created in the first film - is starting to creep back into Sherman’s life, making him say inappropriate things ...

Advantages: Can make up be an advantage? Disadvantages: Over the top and weak at the same time
...individual case, almost singlehandedly creating the motormouth, wisecracking black cool dude, although he needed to lift an awfully large chunk of that muse from the act of Richard Pryor. He has had some pretty wonderful vehicles for his talents, in such movies as Trading Places and Beverly Hills Cop, but in recent times he seems to have totally abandoned any pretence to taste, refinement or reserve.
Dr Dolittle 1 and 2 were bad enough, The Nutty ... ...plumbed completely new depths, stretching the genre probably as far as it can go and in the process degenerating into a frightful mess - in short he's lost it...
If Rush Hour and Big Momma's House were peculiar examples of the motormouth, scarcely intelligible black humour, then they are literally as nothing next to the bizarre, totally over the top mess that is The Klumps. Murphy probably thinks all this is extremely funny and hugely entertaining, ...

Advantages: very funny, great extras Disadvantages: none really
The one thing Everyone remembers from the first Nutty Professor is the dining room scene where Eddie Muphy took on several roles to create a whole family of Klumps. Well this sequel has that whole family for the entire film and although it's a bit patchy in places it still has some very funny moments that just get better every time you watch it. Since this opinion is on the dvd that's what I'll focus on. This film was a big hit in the states so naturally ... ...The film is presented in 1.85.1 anamorphic widescreen and the pictures is crytal clear and definite referance quality. The sound mix is in Dolby Digital 5.1 with either English or French languages. Unlike most comedies this mix makes great use of the rear speakers. The extras are where the disk really earns its pricetag. First up is a 25 minute making of whihc features interviews with the main cast but also a great deal of footage of Murphy in action. ...

Nutty Professor 2 – The Klumps
Rated 12
I thought The Nutty Professor was brilliant; it was funny in all the right amounts. It had the right the kind of everything in! I thought that it was a classic film.
Normally when a good film comes out it smashes the box office and when they decide to do a sequel it is probably rubbish, and The Klumps were no exception!
Right from the start you could tell that it was going to be rubbish, the camera ... ...sudden everything goes wrong and the wedding is in ruins, not the best start to a movie but that was one of the good bits! Sherman Klump (Eddie Murphy) keeps getting flash backs from the last encounter and is ruining his life and he has to try and conquer him the whole way through. The film is really based on the same thing really, Sherman Klump and his beautiful girlfriend find an amazing formulae that can kill age and turn you back to your wonder ...

DVD Description
Everything is coming up roses for Professor Sherman Klump (Eddie Murphy). His fiancee, the equally brilliant Denise Gaines (pop music star Janet Jackson), loves him for his prodigious mind. Sherman's university has just been offered $150,000,000 for the radical new youth serum Sherman has developed. And the big-eating, trash-talking Klump clan (all played by Murphy) couldn't be happier. The only person who can ruin things now is Sherman's nemesis: his idlike alter ego, the smooth-talking, flashy dressing Buddy Love (also played by Murphy). In an attempt to destroy Buddy once and for all, Sherman manages to locate and extract the DNA strand that represents the last remaining trace of his own private Mr. Hyde. But the gene accidentally mutates with a strand of dog hair, giving birth to a brave new Buddy who sniffs out the Klumps. With the help of Academy Award-winning makeup wizard Rick Baker, Murphy magically disappears into multiple roles for uproarious results. NUTTY PROFESSOR II is a hilarious sequel to the 1996 remake.
