Plot: |
|
| Professor Sherman Klump (Eddie Murphy) is engaged to Denise Gaines (Janet Jackson), also a professor, and the Klump family could not be more delighted for him. However Buddy Love, Sherman's alter-ego from the first film, is back and trying to make it on his own. The lively Buddy resurfaces in untimely outbursts, and threatening the portly professor's marriage plans. Utilizing Denise's cutting-edge DNA research, Sherman decides to rid himself of his monstrous nemesis once and for all by extracting Buddy's DNA from his system, however Buddy bursts full-bodied into Sherman's world and lays claim to the professor's astounding invention - a revolutionary youth serum. Desperate to keep it from Buddy, Sherman hides the serum in the Klump family home. Buddy correctly divines where Sherman has placed the serum, but to get it, he has to deal with the entire Klump family first. |
