After cleaning up the streets and the US box office with 2014's Ride Along, Ice Cube and Kevin Hart take another ride in this policing action-comedy sequel. From director Tim Story (Think Like a Man, Barbershop).
As his wedding day approaches, Ben (Hart) heads to Miami with his soon-to-be brother-in-law James (Cube) to bring down a drug baron who's supplying the dealers of Atlanta with product.
It may be because I'm a sucker for any movie that strives to recapture the joy of the glorious action comedies of the 1980s, but I enjoyed the original Ride Along, which is quite possibly the most financially successful film ever ($130 million at the US box office) to not receive a theatrical release here.
Full reviewAnother tired, witless and potentially lucrative attempt to spin an exhausted buddy-cop template into action-comedy gold.
Full reviewShoddy and exhausted from the start, this painfully unfunny buddy-cop comedy lands with a plop in the January sewer of failed Hollywood castoffs.

It may not surprise you to learn, is a lot like "Ride Along," only less so.

This laid-back amusement should not be misinterpreted as competent storytelling.

It's simply a retread of the first Ride Along, a 2014 box-office hit, and proof positive that a bigger budget doesn’t buy bigger laughs.

As deprived of humour as it may be, Ride Along 2 is also pleasantly, stubbornly watchable.

While he's a delight to watch, there's also something exhausting in watching Hart exert himself for a film offering him very little in return. He deserves better, as does the audience.
