One of my favorite movies growing up was Pee-wee's Big Adventure. I wouldn't be surprised if I've seen it over 10 times. No matter how many times I watch that movie, it remains just as funny. I loved riding my bike solely because of Pee-wee Herman.

Pee-wee's Big Holiday is an absolute joy. It was very refreshing seeing Pee-wee in a movie again. I swear Paul Ruebens hasn't aged a bit and he still was able to pull off the character perfectly. Pee-wee Herman and Joe Manganiello are the ultimate duo.

Thank you for making this, Netflix. However, I still can't fully forgive you yet for making the Ridiculous 6.

If I was trapped in a well and my friends and family heard that the woman inside only asked for rootbeer barrels, they too would know it was me. It was really great watching Pee-Wee in a new movie, but it was even better to know that I'm not alone in my love of old people candy. Someone send me a box full, please!

WORLD PREMIERE 
19/30 for my SXSW2016

Pee-wee is back and he's not here for twerking and selfies. Paul Reubens succeeds where so many of our old favorites have failed us during this wave of nostalgia for quick cash. With no wasted effort at bringing Pee-wee to the modern age, Reubens, Apatow, and first time director John Lee bring back the beloved classic spirit in a story with lots of 80s charm. It's perfect for Netflix, allowing his audience to come to him. Big Holiday blatantly ignore the continuity set by Big Adventure and on top of that almost actively avoids throw backs, besides Pee-wee himself and his old habits. Don't expect a cringe-worthy 2 hour attempt at rehashing old one liners. While the packed house at Paramount was giddy and overjoyed I don't think there will be any gut busting moments for those watching alone or with a small group at home, but I was smiling the entire time.

Pee-Wee Herman fills such a specific niche of humor that this is hard to rate generally, since I wouldn't fault some people for finding it unbearable. If you already know you like the tone of the Pee-Wee character, I would bet this'll have some good moments and be worth your time.

This was directed by John Lee of PFFR (Xavier Renegade Angel, Wonder Showzen, Heart She Holler) and as a huge fan of their work and Pee Wee Herman I have to say it totally met my expectations. There's some subtle PFFR-style gags in this movie and if you're a fan you'll absolutely pick up on them.

This scene in particular had me laughing so hard I had to pause the movie for like 10 minutes to collect myself.

i feel really disrespected but...
“dad! dad! why don’t you love me? dad! dad! why don’t you hug me?”
iconic.

A good sequel that sticks really close to the spirit and tone of the original.

Towards the beginning I was scared Paul couldn’t fully pull this off but the moments when he’s a snarky asshole is when he is most peewee like when he tells old man to marry his biscuit. A lot of the humor was their but it’s hard to top a pair like Tim Burton and P.W Herman

Boy, do you have to get on this ones wavelength. I managed it though and had a pretty good time with it. Not sure of the target demographic but I dug it.

pee-wee herman inspires an inexplicable amount of rage within me. reubens' caked-on makeup depresses me. pee-wee's insufferable childish ways are so bubblegum sweet and yet all i can think of when watching this film is reubens wanking in an adult cinema and getting arrested for child porn. why is this film?

4.9 (5)
An small enjoyable movie with some decent photography that manage to maintan the essence of the first one without reaching the level of craziness or creativity of Burton. Nothing terribe, just not really that especial.

Great bromance. Rlly delightful.

Except Dan Daniel, did not like Dan Daniels
