As young twenty-somethings, many viewers may only know actors Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau as the comedy team from the “Grumpy Old Men” movies. Prior to “Grumpy Old Men,” this comical act was known for its work in the movie version of the “Odd Couple.” “The Odd Couple II” reunites this duo in a cute, charming sequel with an updated plot, using the same dry sarcasm as in the classic series.The original “Odd Couple,” with Matthau as Oscar and Lemmon as Felix, was made 30 years ago. It was based on the relationship between two opposites forced to become roommates in New York. “The Odd Couple II” picks up 17 years after the original was made with Felix still living in New York while Oscar relocated to Sarasota, Fla. Oscar and Felix reunite because Oscar’s son, Bruce (Jonathan Silverman), and Felix’s daughter, Hannah (Lisa Waltz), are getting married in California. The comedy immediately begins as Oscar and Felix meet in Los Angeles. The two must drive five hours to the fictional town of San Malina, Calif. to attend their children’s wedding.Along the way, Felix and Oscar are shown to have not changed and are still complete opposites years later. Examples of this include scenes where Oscar forgets Felix’s luggage in a parking lot and when Felix frets over the purity of a restaurant’s drinking water.Throughout the film, Felix and Oscar have many misadventures. After accidentally destroying their rental car, they hitch a ride that leads to one of three of their arrests. Oscar then picks up two “middle-aged biker women” (Christine Baranski of “Cybil” and Jean Smart of “Designing Women”) and they finally make it to the wedding on time. However, Oscar and Felix do not allow the movie to end without a few more comical mishaps that show this true odd couple at its best.What makes “The Odd Couple II” interesting is the perfect comedy pairing of Lemmon and Matthau and their wise-cracking, funny expressions. Their comical spoofs allow the audience to feel as if the “Odd Couple” just picked up from where it left off years ago. Director Howard Deutch tries to portray the similarities from the original movie, but in a different setting. However, with many of the younger generation not “Odd Couple” educated, many of the comical incidents may just remind them of another “Grumpy Old Men” sequel.
