Once again the best part of a "House Party" movie is the music. Of the many rappers turned actors, Kid n' Play would probably rank somewhere in the middle, which means that they aren't that good of actors.
In HP2 Christopher Robinson Jr. (aka Kid) is off to college. His father, played by Robin Harris in the first HP, is no longer around (Robin Harris died in 1990) and he has to make it on his own. He's all set to get his learning on when Play loses Kid's tuition check. Actually, Play was conned out of Kid's tuition check by the beautiful Charice (Iman) who was pretending to be a record producer.
Kid had no money and he was facing expulsion, so you know what that means: a house party to get the money back.
The party was held in a university building and had talent like Ralph Tresvant, Tony! Toni! Tone!, Kamron (the only white member of Young Black Teenagers), and of course Kid n' Play. Though Queen Latifah was in the movie being extremely judgmental and preachy, she didn't perform at the party. She was too busy playing Queen Cockblocker between Kid and Sydney (Tisha Campbell).
Martin Lawrence as Bilal was the only person or thing remotely funny. He wasn't in top Martin form which leads me to believe he had very little to do with the script. The plot was weak, the acting was weaker, but at least it was a sublime walk down memory lane.
