15 Pointless Movie Sequels That Just Copied The Original

2. Big Momma's House 2

The Original: An absurd cop comedy in which Martin Lawrence, in the pursuit of justice, disguises himself as an overweight black woman referred to by most as Big Momma. The Sequel: Given how one-note the original premise was, it's pretty ridiculous that Big Momma's House got not one sequel, but two. While the third movie at least diversifies itself slightly with the "Like Father, Like Son" gimmick, the second movie is just a lame rehash of what worked the first time, dishing up another pedestrian crime narrative, and as a result it's almost completely forgettable (but not quite enough to miss a spot on this list). As if the stereotypes of a fat, black woman weren't grating enough the first time, the second time they're positively insufferable.
