A simple movie that relies on the A.B.C.'s of buddy cop movies: A.) Action. B.) Broad comedy. C.) Cleavage.

It's simply a shame to see a talented guy like Kevin Hart saddled with material that doesn't begin to live up to his immense comic range.

Bland, lazy, and unable to elevate itself to the low standards of its predecessor, Ride Along 2 is a ride not work taking.

All in all, more than simply being bad, Ride Along 2 is disappointing.

We admit it's a wild ride, but this one holds the road much better.

"Ride Along 2" is one those sequels that didn't need to be made, but now that its existence can't be argued, should have and could have been better than it is.

[Ride Along 2] is a film that misses far more often than it hits, filled with generic action sequences and tired one-liners.

There is nothing inherently bad about this sequel, but there is nothing that hasn't been seen in pretty much any other film in the genre.

Comedy sequels frequently deliver on being terrible, but Ride Along 2 is a case of extreme laziness. It's nothing more than an attempt at once again making gangbusters during the doldrums of January

Ride Along 2 may be the first mainstream comedy in years to feature a cast this diverse and for that it deserves some sort of accolade. But that's it. Otherwise its the same eye-rolling numbskullery as the first.

The shame of it is that the two leads have good chemistry together -- along with some decent support from Ken Jeong and Olivia Munn -- but they're stuck in a paint-by-numbers cop story that spends more time on its twists than being funny.

This second helping does little more than add a bit of Miami glitz to a formula that wasn't especially inspired to begin with.

Ride Along 2 stretches the premise of the original paper-thin ... The unlikely glee of the original is thoroughly gone this time around.

There are only so many bad things you can say about a film that left you genuinely bored and watching the clock, but there really isn't a redeeming feature and all I can say is, you'd be better off giving this one a miss.

A wholly generic and predictable cop movie, not just in its plot but down to the tiniest details of its aesthetic.
