Dex invites investors to his home to present his new product, Burn No More. If you spray it on anything, it will become fireproof. And Dex uses his home to prove the product works. However, he burns his home to the ground, and the investors pull out of the project. Dex returns to his office and finds an eviction notice. With no home or job, Dex needs help. He calls his sister, Charlotte, but she hangs up on him. Dex finds a yo-yo and thinks of his best friend, Ed (FTC Affiliate Disclaimer). He calls Ed and asks to see him. Ed is ecstatic.
Ed introduces Dex to the new staff, including his son, Ed 2, and Dex’s niece, Mia. Mia grunts and rolls her eyes because she knows Dex lost Charlotte’s money in his get-rich-quick scheme. Later, Dex asks for his old job at Good Burger back, and Ed promises to put a good word in with the manager, Mr. Jenson. Mr. Jenson hires Dex without an interview because the owner, Ed, vouched for him. Dex didn’t know Ed owns Good Burger because they haven’t spoken in over five years.
A lawyer, Cecil, pulls Ed aside during Dex’s first shift. Dex overhears Cecil trying to get Ed to sell Good Burger. But Ed turns him down. Ed will never give up his restaurant. Later, Cecil sends goons to a roller skating party to trick Ed into signing the contract, but he clumsily dodges them. Then, Cecil invites Dex to his home. He tells Dex that Megacorp doesn’t want to buy Good Burger from Ed. Instead, they want to franchise. If Dex convinces Ed to sign the documents, Megacorp will make Dex a partner. Dex arranges a meeting, and Ed signs because Dex asks him to do it.
Dex has a massive party for the Good Burger employees and promises a raise in pay for the staff. Cecil stops the party. Ed and Dex didn’t read the contract. They are closing the flagship Good Burger and opening copycat restaurants worldwide. Ed and his employees are jobless. Dex feels guilty. So he vows to get Good Burger from Megacorp and return it to Ed.
This movie caters to new and old fans equally. It has a modern plotline that references the first movie. Also, All That cast members make noteworthy cameo appearances. They have an all-star group singing to save Good Burger that will make you laugh. The core of Ed’s personality hasn’t changed. He is a sweet, aloof guy. He is loyal to his friends and his job. Ed is a husband with seven children, a thriving business, and a famous sauce. Dex is single with no kids or business. While Ed drives Dex crazy, he is everything Dex wishes to be. However, Dex isn’t jealous of Ed but tries to use him. Dex sees his misgivings and attempts to be a better friend. The movie gives a synopsis of Good Burger, so fans and newbies don’t have to watch it (FTC Affiliate Disclaimer). This film stays faithful to the original while reeling in new fans, and it’s enjoyable for the whole family.
