Critics Consensus

Despite the best laid plans, this hokey sequel doesn't improve much upon its predecessor due to a forgettable plot and routine execution.

D+

The setpieces are sloppy and unexciting to the extreme, and most of them, like a low-energy fight aboard a double-decker bus, are shapeless to the point that they simply end instead of building to a climactic beat.

1/4

It’s aneven-worse study in lazy filmmaking, aggressively unfunny clichés, and bland action sequences.

2/4

This sequel barely makes the grade as escapism, but wash it down with holiday cheer, put your brain on low power, let forgiveness into your heart and it’s—sound the trumpets—passable.

Fun, but forgettable action.

1.5/4

The sequel can at least divorce itself from the staleness of the family not knowing what’s up to give them a more active role, but that still leaves the audience with an inconsequential villain and even more forgettable action.

2/5

The dialogue is lazy and the characters are thin clichés; so, while a few gags hit their marks, the plot remains far too bland to really hold any attention.

Somehow it turns out better than the first one, that or I expect nothing and something was ok. Fun to watch though.

Not as much fun as the first film, but better than many made for TV films.

Not nearly as good as the first movie. The fight scenes between the two brothers was week. The movie started off interesting but it faded fast. Ending the movie with the two brothers playing cards just undone the who reason they were fighting. This felt like a lifetime original movie. Timothy Treakle.

The plot was a little thin and predictable, but the humor was fun, and it is refreshing to see a film that emphasizes family togetherness, even with all it’s issues.

Despite the great visual, Amazing cast and the little comedy. It's thinly plotted.
