Ride Along 2 was a very funny movie. I enjoyed it and would recommend my friends to check it out. I really enjoy Kevin Hart. Would like to see more movies with him in it.

The film is long, and the plot is the same thing in every single buddy-cop comedy. It isn't too much worse than the original, but I guarantee you that you've definitely seen this before.… Expand

I found this movie to be hilarious. The entire audience seemed to agree with me as the whole theatre was laughing throughout. Weird that it only got 15% from the critics. I think it did it's job which was to provide the audience with laughs :D

The situations Hart and Ice Cube get themselves involved in are crazier and more absurd this time around, but the real laughs still come from watching Kevin Hart's motor mouthed character getting shutdown by Ice Cube again and again.

The biggest problem with most comedy sequels is that as they get more over-the-top, they lose touch with what worked in the first movie and end up being more stupid than funny. Ride Along 2 however is one of those rare cases where bigger actually is better. The reason for that is because of it's two leads.

Both actors are completely committed to their roles. It's their enthusiasm and ability to roll with whatever situation they are thrown into that makes it all so funny. Not every joke nails the landing, but I still found plenty of laughs to be had here.

The main area where this sequel stumbles is in the actual cop side of things. The crime, villain, and detective work are all too familiar. We've seen it all before which leads to a huge sense of predictability. The set up works in allowing there to be plenty of humorous situations for the duo to get involved in, but watching them hit road bumps in their investigation that everyone who watches it will see coming from miles away just makes the characters look really stupid. At least we get some nice explosions. The firefights that surround them aren't much to talk about.

When it comes to jokes Ride Along 2 delivers. Ken Jeong is a great addition and Hart and Ice Cube are great at using their personalities to keep bouncing (most) of the jokes off of each other. It stumbles where the police work is concerned due to familiarity and the not very exciting action, but this is a comedy so it's the jokes that matter most anyway. Ride Along 2 goes bigger than it's predecessor and in a rare turn for comedies ends up better. If they can keep the Hart, Cube, and now Jeong magic going I wouldn't actually mind seeing a third movie, as there are plenty of laughs to be found here and potential to keep things going.… Expand

They both are getting closer professionally as well as family.

When I liked the first movie, I wanted a sequel and now they made one for it that I liked even better than the original. I don't think Ice Cube's solo performance could have pulled the crowd in, the impact was because of the Kevin Hart's presence, he really rocks. He's doing some awesome movies lately, and he's the best sidekick and comedian available for now in Hollywood, just like Simon Pegg in England.

Once again a movie is totally underrated, especially by foul mouthed film critics. Trust me, this film is much better than what they say. If you liked the first, you'll surely going to enjoy it as well. I'm confident the rating will recover in the later days once the regular people rent it. A simple follow-up story, but it was the comedy that lifted this film. The two cops soon-to-be bros-in-law goes to Miami on a job, but the case they're working connects with others, so they join the local force to take down the gang behind it.

Who needs a spoof film for it, the movie mocks its own characters by saying 'a low budget Jackie Chan' for Keng Jeong. Apart from the comedies, the action sequences were very impressive. Olivia Munn was a great addition and I believe she would hangouts here for the next. Yep, I want the third movie and I'm hoping it to be even more stylish kick-ass action-comedy. So just retain the director and writers, after the first two films, I got high hope on them.

I quite enjoyed the movie. Maybe it is a bit similar to first part and I wouldn't say that it is unbelievably funny, but I do recommend it if you want to watch something fun without going into it too much.

They improved a lot about it, and I laughed a lot. The actors were funny, and played their parts well. They made the story better, and the ending was great. It is worth a watch.

Very funny movie. Kevin Hart is so hilarious. It's almost like watching the movie Friday but with cops.
