Although Jack Hartounian (Jackie Mason) has made a fortune as a contractor, he must put up a fight so he and his daughter, Kate, can join the exclusive Bushwood Country Club. More than anything, Kate longs to be accepted by the club's rich members, who include her college roommate, Miffy. However, Miffy's parents, Chandler and Cynthia Young, mount a tough campaign to make sure the Hartounians stay out of their beloved club -- and they succeed. To get revenge, Jack buys the majority of Bushwood's stock and transforms the club into an extravagant park open to all. But the club's members still refuse to leave. Eventually, the confrontation can only be solved with a new money versus old money battle on the links. (official distributor synopsis)

As I’m not a huge fan of the first part, this sequel didn’t upset me that much. It’s definitely not as terrible as what rumours say. It’s just an average or sub-average comedy nobody asked for, except for the mercenary producers (including the infamous Jon Peters). As a result, Caddyshack II was a financial failure, a good part of the crew regretted their participation, and no other piece from the promising director of low-budget films Allan Arkush ever appeared in cinemas again.
