Reaction: Not the numbers we were expecting following the success of the first film. Each of the returning cast members were given substantial raises as they did not have sequels written into their contracts for the first film, which obviously added to the expenses of the film. Another factor that could have had an effect is the change in genre from Romantic Comedy to just Comedy, which did affect the marketing somewhat.
"The slightly charming humor of the first film has been replaced with unneccesary and off-topic tangents of little importance to the characters or the plot. It's a one-joke movie that quickly wears out its welcome." - Reggie Dunn, Sacramento Bee
"The film clearly is having fun poking fun at the premise and the environment its characters find themselves in. While it doesn't always make sense, enough of the jokes hit to make the time move by quickly and stress-free." - James Tubbs Jr., Vice Magazine
"The Vegan Movie 2 has taken everything that didn't work about the first film and multiplies them to the tenth power. If you disliked the first film, you'll hate this one. If you liked the first film, this one might make you rethink that affinity." - Jeremy Raren, RottenTomatoes.com
