I admit to laughing my ass off at that, but the only reason it is so good and liked is because it's got a bunch of bored celebrities in it playing the various roles. If a bunch of us had gotten together during quarantine and done the exact same thing people would be like, "lame..."

I'd say it depends on the dedication and "production" levels involved that would determine how lame I'd find it to be.

So, I loved it. Its silly, and campy in spots, and it is funny, and heart warming, and at the end I was in tears, but it wasn't crying or laughing tears, or angry tears, but tears for ... I can't even explain entirely - and I can't say the trigger because spoilers.

But if you loved the original movie, then watch it.
