I liked it better than the first

Torrente is a crude, ladies man type man of the law. I think this version was even more fun because he's in the playground of Spain, Marbella. I think if you liked the first one, you will enjoy this version even more. I've even seen the third version, and this is my favorite. If you get the Spanish sense of humor, you will enjoy this film. I would say it's definitely for machos, and the wives and the girlfriends have to ignore lots of scenes in the Torrente series. But just keep a good sense of humor about it all. It's for guys who like sexy women (quite a bit of nudity in all of the Torrente films) and very Spanish domestic sense of humor. If you've ever lived in Spain or have a Spanish husband like I do, you will understand what I mean. For example, he loves "El Fary", Real Madrid, etc. The language is very graphic as well, and it is better if you understand Castellano. It is quite hilarious if certain things don't bother you.
