Taking place a few years after the first Neighbors, Mac (Rogen) and Kelly Radner (Byrne) are finally able to sell their house. The fraternity has since graduated and the house is now empty. Unfortunately, Shelby (Chloe Grace Moretz), Beth (Kiersey Clemons), and Nora (Beanie Feidstein), new freshmen, decide to open up their own sorority right next door after finding out that sororities on campus cannot throw parties like the fraternities can. In desperation, Mac and Kelly devise several plans as to get rid of the sorority and make sure that the new owners of their house never see the girls. Meanwhile Teddy Sanders (Efron) has yet to move on from college, especially since he cannot find a job due to his record that the Radners' caused. In an interest to the sorority, he decides to help the girls in making sure that they are not shut down as well as get revenge on their neighbors.
I thought this film was hilarious. I was cracking up through the whole thing especially since in addition to physical humor, there is also sexist, racist, and ageist jokes. But at the same time there are a few morals brought to light about the injustice in college with relevance to sororities and fraternities. Other than that, it's pretty similar to the first one, but with new ways to sabotage.
I was too engrossed in the plot to notice any technical errors. The acting was great, especially Efron's during a specific running scene. It was unexpected, but loved it all the same. If you see it, you'll get what I mean. 4 popcorns.
