Kangaroo Jack: G'Day U.S.A.! (also known as Kangaroo Jack 2 or Kangaroo Jack 2: G'Day U.S.A.!) is an animated action-comedy film directed by Ron Myrick and Jeffrey Gatrall and a sequel to 2003's Kangaroo Jack. Released direct-to-video in 2004, it was produced by Warner Bros. Animation and Castle Rock Entertainment, and was distributed by Warner Bros.

Why It's Still Nothing But Chicken Blood

1. It just wasn't necessary to give Kangaroo Jack a sequel, but that's not even the biggest issue regarding this movie.
2. Most of the attempts at humor fall flat.
3. The writing is just lazy.
4. Charlie and Louis are still as unfunny and unlikable as before.
5. The plot is confusing.
6. The prophecy concept is just weird.
7. The fart jokes are still there.
   • The last lane in the film is literally a fart joke.
8. The villain is just your typical corporate villain.
9. It doesn't make any sense since that the concept of the first movie was shot in live-action, while this sequel is made in animated form.

Redeeming Qualities

1. The movie actually addressed a major criticism of the first film by making Jackie Legs the main character.
2. The animation is decent for a direct-to-video movie.
3. It's much tamer than the first movie, and there's no overuse of sex jokes
4. The voice acting is good.
5. Surprisingly good renditions of popular songs like "Mama Said Knock You Out" and "I Only Have Eyes for You".
   • The scene where Jackie Legs raps while boxing is funny.
