Ruder, cruder, and even wilder than its predecessor, National Lampoon's Van Wilder: The Rise of Taj is a balls-out campus comedy filled with nonstop laughs and sexy student bodies! Having learned the ways of women from his legendary mentor, Taj Badalandabad (Kal Penn) sets out to study abroad (or two) at England's prestigious Camford University. But he and his bottom-heavy bulldog, Balzac, are quickly rebuffed by the elitist members of Camford's top fraternity. So with the help of a few new friends?and a bold new attitude?Taj plans to teach the school snobs a lesson they'll never forget!

Summary: Kal Penn on 'House'...say it ain't so!
Comment: I actually own the first Van Wilder on dvd and it has some laugh out loud moments,this movie,however never produced any laughs. Even the commercials for the movie didn't look that funny...plus it only had Kal Penn and I am not a fan,so I passed.
It showed up on my directv guide and I still found something better to watch (like,Dewey Cox in Walk hard,which is actually funny) but,when I couldn't find anything better to watch I gave this a try and I wish I didn't. It's one of those movies where you think to yourself...It's going to get better,while you are watching people leaving the theater,but you stay,thinking its going to get better,hoping its going to get better but this movie never does.
Boring and Bland and it makes you want to root against "Kumar" every chance you get. You will learn to hate Kal Penn if you force yourself to watch this garbage. Kal Penn Actually had a hand in producing this. He should be slapping himself.
I really can't stand Kal Penn. I used to watch the Television series 'House' but when I noticed that Penn was on the show,there was no way I would ever watch it again. Is House jumping the shark?

Summary: Average Comedy
Comment: Van Wilder- The Rise of Taj
If you watched to first Van Wilder then you know that Taj was Van Wilder's assistant. Van was one of the coolest people on campus and taught Taj everything he knew. This time Taj tackles his own journey in the United Kingdom. Upon arriving in the United Kingdom he looks to join one of the most prestigious fraternity. He is told that there was a "typographical error" and is told to go to The Barn. The Barn is where all the rejects are. Taj sees potential in these freaks and wants to makes something out of them. He tells them that they can even win the Hastings Cup if they try hard enough. The Hastings Cup is a challenge for all fraternities on campus to compete in. It is a series of academic, athletic, and recreational challenges. Taj and the barn make their own fraternity and join in the games.
The first Van Wilder was much better. Taj was just too uninteresting to make an entire movie about. I'm not saying that this movie doesn't have its funny parts, but for the most part it's just an average movie.
The actors in the movie don't really do a good job of making themselves interesting. The movie itself really lacks any emotion to it. In the original Van Wilder there was a deep moral behind the story. This movie is just an average comedy not worth watch again.
You get music videos, gag reels, deleted scenes, and making of stuff that is all fairly interesting to watch. It's not enough to save this movie from being completely average though. If you really want to check out this movie, I would suggest renting it.

Summary: Not Nearly as Good as first Van Wilder
Comment: I'd skip this version .It tries but its only average to less average fun movie. It is shame.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Taj "makeover"
Comment: Taj has become the next Van Wilder. He is now able to inspire the least popular group of ppl. Through Van Wilder's past influence, he's able to portray a Taj with confidence.. watch it, u wouldn't regret it.
I would love to watch over and over again...
Customer Rating:
Summary: Equal to the first, it is not.
Comment: I enjoyed this movie as a comedy, however, it did not measure up to the original Van Wilder. I think they would have had a much better response to this movie if they had not used the name Van Wilder in it. It is worth a little chuckle here and there.
