Heart-broken after the tragic death of his one-legged wife Kate, male gigolo Deuce Bigalow (Rob Schneider) is talked into taking a trip to Amsterdam by his ex-pimp TJ (Eddie Griffin),where the pair become involved in the hunt for a serial killer targeting the city's man-whores.
I loved the first Deuce Bigalow for its unashamedly tasteless low-brow humour, but this sequel tries too damned hard, not to just match the original, but to outdo it; as a result we get loads of extremely OTT and very puerile gags, few of which actually hit the mark.
Where the first movie saw Deuce's services hired by a tall woman, an obese woman, a narcoleptic, and a Tourette's sufferer, this one has the reluctant man-whore meeting an OCD sufferer, a babe with a serious hygiene problem, a 'big bitch' with a baby fetish, a hunchback, a lady with a tracheostoma, another with unfeasibly huge ears, and a Russian woman with a penis for a nose and who sneezes jizz!!!.
There are a few giggles to be had with all this nonsense, but most of the jokes are too far-fetched and fall flatter than a Dutch landscape. There is also an over-reliance on repetitive gags, especially the use of ridiculously named sex acts such as Turkish Snowcone, Belgian Steamer, Portuguese Breakfast, Chili Rainbow etc. (which are funny the first time, but soon become tiresome).
Part of me would love to believe that the film will grow on me with successive viewings, but I'm not even sure if I'm willing to test that theory.
I rate Deuce Bigelow European Gigolo a disappointing 3 out of 10, but add an extra point for lovely Kelly Brook (as the woman in Deuce's pot-induced hallucination),gorgeous Hanna Verboom as Deuce's new squeeze Eva, and the use of The Pixies on the soundtrack.

European gigolos are being murdered. In Malibu, Deuce Bigalow (Rob Schneider) is still hounded by his man-whoring reputation. Kate was eaten by sharks and he's left only with her artificial leg. T.J. Hicks (Eddie Griffin) invites him to Amsterdam. When T.J. is caught in a comprising position, he is suspected as the gay killer. Deuce has to go into the European gigolo world to clear T.J.'s name.
I didn't mind the original Deuce Bigalow. It's silly but surprisingly, it has a bit of heart. Deuce is a rather likable goof but his character reflected in Kate's eyes is what gives him real heart. This one is missing Kate. Maybe Arija Bareikis didn't want to reprise her role although she has a small scene. Also it's not like she's that busy. This one has him falling for another troubled beauty. It's cute but it's also repeating the first movie. He has a whole new series of weird dates which is also repeating the first movie. It's not as hateful as one might expect but this is not good either.
Very funny, despite weak story and some immature jokes.
This movie was very funny. Despite the fact that the story is a little simple, generic, and weak, the movie contains non-stop jokes that will make you laugh, whether you want to or not. The movie does contain some immature humor, like the occasional fart joke, however, they are still funny. The movie also has quite a bit of creative humor. Eddie Griffin is a very funny part of the movie in a hilarious performance. This is a simple movie meant for no other purpose than to make you laugh, a purpose which it does a very good job of fulfilling. Do not treat it like a drama. It is a comedy and therefore it does not have to make perfect sense as long as it is funny. This is definitely worth seeing if you want to laugh and enjoy crude and simple humor, such as in a good Adam Sandler movie(an old one, the new ones suck) or a good Farrely brothers movie.
