Reviews & comments
Variety
pressAnother tired, witless and potentially lucrative attempt to spin an exhausted buddy-cop template into action-comedy gold.
Time Out
pressShoddy and exhausted from the start, this painfully unfunny buddy-cop comedy lands with a plop in the January sewer of failed Hollywood castoffs.
The New York Times
pressIt may not surprise you to learn, is a lot like "Ride Along," only less so.
The Guardian
pressThis laid-back amusement should not be misinterpreted as competent storytelling.
Rolling Stone
pressIt'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.
Little White Lies
pressAs deprived of humour as it may be, Ride Along 2 is also pleasantly, stubbornly watchable.
FilmInk
pressWhile 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.
