Former CIA black-ops agent Frank Moses (Bruce Willis) and his old partner, Marvin Boggs (John Malkovich), are caught in the grip of retirement -- but that soon changes when a powerful Cold War weapon known as Nightshade resurfaces decades after its disappearance. With assassins hot on their trail, Frank and his team set out to find the one scientist (Anthony Hopkins) who can unravel the mystery of Nightshade and help them save themselves -- and the world.

Critics Consensus

While it's still hard to argue with its impeccable cast or the fun they often seem to be having, Red 2 replaces much of the goofy fun of its predecessor with empty, over-the-top bombast.

While we applaud the minds behind Red 2 for making a film for adults in a sea of movies for kids and teenage boys, they didn't actually make a good film for adults.

The Expendables meets The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel isn't an obviously winning formula.

3/5

The trick to RED 2's success is its willingness to allow the actors to roar through all their greatest hits at the loudest possible volume.

The overly fun-loving tone of Red 2 prevents us from feeling truly involved.

RED 2 slowly-but-surely begins to fizzle out as it enters its padded-out and hopelessly convoluted midsection...

Instead of the bombastic blast RED provided, the new movie is uninspired product that uses a semi-familiar title to attract an audience.

Repetitive of the first film, but still with enough new that its earns its existence as a sequel.

Almost as great as the first! Love the cast, also. Hope they make Red 3, or another one.
