Den of Thieves 2: Pantera

"Fun, flirty action bromance."

"Big Nick might not understand a lick of French, but Butler is simply parfait."

"Gerard Butler letting loose is a beautiful thing to behold."

"The sillier the odds become, the better the movie gets."

"An unexpected January delight."

"The sequel is mostly uninspired, but Butler’s heavy remains a compelling bozo force."

"A funnier, chummier heist."

"(Gudegast) keeps the... standoffs humming, and he’s got a sixth sense for how to showcase Butler."

"Long live Big Nick O'Brien, one of the greatest characters in movie history."

"(It) isn’t groundbreaking, but it delivers what it promises: lovable scoundrels trading bullets and traversing borders."

"Loses its surprise but sustains its strangeness."

"The two castmates lack magnetic attraction, a substantial concern in a buddy-rival thriller."

"A film granular with details... elevated by a pair of charismatic leading men."

"(A) lacklustre action sequel."

"A crime caper that takes too long to get going."
