Trivia:

During one of the underground shots of the gopher, we see an assortment of junk that he's collected in his "home." If you look closely, there is a plastic explosive (C-4) animal in the background, which was used by Bill Murray's character "Carl" from the first film. Carl dropped the clay animal in the hole in an effort to get the original gopher in the Caddyshack (1980).

Goofs:

Factual errors: When Peter Blunt is on the phone, complaining that the power to Hartounian Enterprises has been cut off, he's using a cordless phone that wouldn't function in a power failure.

Quotes:

Ty Webb: We're talking mucho dinero, and probably some American money too.

Pretty Lame...

The near-classic first film is really a great comedy, whereas, this one recycles some of the jokes, and doesn't do nearly as well. There was a magic about the first film where everything just worked, whereas this time around, nothing worked and for the most part was rather unfunny. Watch the first ten-twenty minutes for the return of Ty Webb, and then go about your business...
