What really saves Super Troopers 2, to the extent that it even wants to be saved, is how gleefully the Broken Lizard bunch goes about its work. Read full review

Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperApr 19, 2018
While the members of the Broken Lizard comedy group retain their likability, and there’s something kind of endearing about the disjointed, throw-everything-at-the-wall, “Caddyshack” type chaos behind the comedy, there are simply too many dead spots and cheap jokes and flat gags to carry a full-length feature.

Super Troopers 2 amounts to nothing more than a limp reunion tour where they seem to feel obligated to play the hits. Read full review

EmpireOlly RichardsJun 18, 2018
A sequel nobody needed, and very few demanded, but one that is nice to have anyway. Very daft and very childish and mostly very funny. Read full review

Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyApr 20, 2018
Isn’t aggressively terrible or outrageously offensive. It’s just harmless, pointless, and meh. You’d think with 17 years at their disposal these guys would be able to come up with some jokes that weren’t so half-baked and dumb. Alas, this is low-hanging fruit all the way. Read full review

IndieWireEric KohnApr 16, 2018
The movie stumbles through its shaggy comedy aesthetic with mixed results. Read full review

Philadelphia Daily NewsNick VadalaApr 19, 2018
The problem isn’t that the humor is inappropriate, it’s that after almost two decades, it isn’t as funny. Read full review

RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsApr 20, 2018
This bloated, unfocused follow-up—which was tellingly crowd-funded by fans and then released by Fox Searchlight—takes all of the charming goofiness of the first film, and runs it deep into the ground with gags that either over- or under-think these stock characters' original appeal.

Rolling StoneDavid FearApr 20, 2018
The problem here isn't excessive pandering; the sheer existence of this second movie is already 100-percent fan service. It's that it doesn't give you much beyond a very subjective view of what these guys find hilarious. Read full review

The A.V. ClubSean O'NealApr 17, 2018
Its very existence is a testament to lowered expectations. That said, it seems like a real missed opportunity for Broken Lizard, which has only seen diminishing returns since the original. Read full review

The Associated PressJake CoyleApr 18, 2018
While Super Troopers 2...may be just enough to satiate any remaining die-hards, it’s not likely to convert many new moviegoers to their syrup-swilling, “meow”-ing ways. Read full review

Though less funny than the first, it will play well to those who are in the mood. Read full review

TheWrapWilliam BibbianiApr 20, 2018
Even though they sometimes land a great joke, the troopers aren’t inherently amusing or even all that likable this time around. They’re undeniably corrupt cops, even if they are relatively benign about it. Super Troopers 2 still manages to be funny quite a bit of the time, but the word “funny” needs an asterisk next to it, warning that the laughs might carry with them a certain amount of guilt.

Time OutMichael GingoldApr 25, 2018
Only the most easily pleased fans of foul-mouthed comedy will respond to these jokes and set pieces, which generally lack cleverness or comic imagination. Read full review

We Got This CoveredLuke ParkerApr 21, 2018
Meow, there are laughs to be had here and there throughout Super Troopers 2, but unless you’re really riding the Highway Patrol's wave of manic police work, miss this stale revival and stick to the original. Read full review
