Seventeen years ago, when I was a much younger person, I thought “Super Troopers” was pretty funny. I’m sure if I watched it now I’d have some nostalgic chuckles, but I’m not that misty-eyed for the comedy to really feel any excitement for the sequel. But for those who are ready to get back with the gang, it looks like that for better or worse, “Super Troopers 2” is bringing back the exact same brand of laughs you enjoyed all those years ago.
Jay Chandrasekhar, Paul Soter, Steve Lemme, Erik Stolhanske, Kevin Heffernan, Brian Cox, and Marisa Coughlan are joined by Lynda Carter, Rob Lowe, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Tyler Labine, Will Sasso, and Hayes MacArthur in this story which finds the highway patrol sent up to the mysterious world of Canada, to repatriate a small, Quebecois town. Here’s the official synopsis:
Everyone’s favorite law enforcement team is back by popular demand with the long anticipated follow up to the cult comedy classic…SUPER TROOPERS. When an international border dispute arises between the U.S. and Canada, the Super Troopers- Mac, Thorny, Foster, Rabbit and Farva, are called in to set up a new Highway Patrol station in the disputed area. Unconventional police work follows, and the result is…SUPER TROOPERS 2.
“Super Troopers 2” meowpens on April 20th.
