Tampa Bay TimesSteve PersallJun 18, 2014
What happens in Vegas happens a lot in movies. Think Like a Man Too goes to the same casinos, strip clubs and pleasure pools with a fistful of jokers and an ace up its sleeve, the irrepressible Kevin Hart. Read full review

Boston GlobePeter KeoughJun 19, 2014
Think Like a Man Too vastly surpasses the septic “The Hangover Part III.” If Story and company keep thinking like filmmakers, maybe three will be the charm. Read full review

St. Louis Post-DispatchKevin C. JohnsonJun 19, 2014
Every character from the original is here, navigating the dating jungle, but this time there’s no pushing of Steve Harvey’s book. Read full review

Miami HeraldConnie OgleJun 19, 2014
The undeniable star is the diminutive comedian. He’s the glue that holds the movie together when it wanders into the weeds and starts believing it’s a serious meditation on relationships. Read full review

The GuardianJordan HoffmanSep 9, 2014
Put bluntly, Tim Story's film wears you down until you relent and say, yes, I like these people and it's fun to watch them all have such a good time. Read full review

New York Daily NewsJoe NeumaierJun 19, 2014
The actors make the raucousness feel as easy as the cinematic couples therapy. Read full review

Film.comKate ErblandJun 20, 2014
It’s all, quite strangely, boring. Read full review

New York Magazine (Vulture)Bilge EbiriJun 20, 2014
Mostly uninspired and insipid, but it rallies, and builds up enough comic steam by the end that you might find yourself amused. Read full review

Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperJun 19, 2014
The problem — and it’s an insurmountable, deadly, comedy-killing, consistent problem throughout — is a tired, uninspired, derivative screenplay that brings everyone to Vegas for a wedding and incorporates nearly every weekend-in-Vegas cliche explored in dozens of previous films. Read full review

Washington PostAnn HornadayJun 19, 2014
Think Like a Man Too, the derivative, intermittently amusing follow-up to the surprise hit rom-com from 2012, is so frenetically paced and hysterically pitched that it makes almost no room for simple enjoyment. Read full review

Portland OregonianStephen WhittyJun 19, 2014
This is the sort of film that only makes sense as a rental, with, perhaps, a couple of friends and a very generously mixed pitcher of margaritas. Read full review

Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsJun 19, 2014
The sequel is a disappointing step down, and backward. Read full review

TheWrapAlonso DuraldeJun 19, 2014
There are moments of fun to be found in Think Like a Man Too... It's just a pity that the movie does better by members of the Las Vegas Convention & Visitors Authority than those of the Screen Actors Guild. Read full review

Austin ChronicleWilliam GossJun 18, 2014
Everyone in the ensemble is game for their respective misadventures, but little of it seems all that inspired. Read full review

Arizona RepublicBarbara VanDenburghJun 18, 2014
It's the PG-13 version of "The Hangover," and more than anything, that's just boring. Read full review

Entertainment WeeklyJeff LabrecqueJun 20, 2014
In several instances, you can sense that director Tim Story simply rolled the proverbial ball out to Hart on the court and called the play: Make it funny. Hart scores occasionally, but Think Like a Man Too loses by double digits. Read full review

VarietyJustin ChangJun 19, 2014
Although funnier and mercifully shorter than its 2012 battle-of-the-sexes predecessor, this third collaboration between manic comedian Kevin Hart and director Tim Story (hot on the heels of their January hit “Ride Along”) is an exceedingly formulaic and ultimately exhausting thing to experience.

RogerEbert.comChristy LemireJun 20, 2014
All these folks are pretty bland, really; then again, even gorgeous, charismatic actors like these can get steamrolled when Hart is around. Read full review

Slant MagazineEric HendersonJun 19, 2014
That this retrograde "straight talk" somehow managed to emerge on screen as a reasonably genial ensemble comedy speaks to the strength of its performers. Read full review

Rolling StonePeter TraversJun 19, 2014
If you laughed at Tim Story's first "Think," based on Steve Harvey's bestselling advice book for women, you'll probably ride along for this jacked-up, Vegas-set sequel in which dudes and dolls offer sexist approaches to throwing a bachelor party. Read full review

USA TodayClaudia PuigJun 19, 2014
Silly, unfunny and formulaic. Read full review

McClatchy-Tribune News ServiceRoger MooreJun 18, 2014
This generally mild-mannered comedy sinks or swims on Hart’s back. And as one scene makes clear, Little Man can’t swim. Read full review

The A.V. ClubIgnatiy VishnevetskyJun 18, 2014
Think Like A Man was a memorably bad movie; the most eccentric thing about this sequel is its title. Read full review

Village VoiceMichael NordineJun 19, 2014
Returning director Tim Story lays out the narrative wares with all the subtlety of a neon sign on the Strip, not that the screenplay from Keith Merryman and David A. Newman (who also co-wrote the first one) gives him much to work with. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesBetsy SharkeyJun 19, 2014
Mostly, the movie swings wildly between mania when Hart is on-screen and relative serenity when he's not. It gives the film a multiple-personality feel that does not work in its favor. Read full review

The New York TimesAnita GatesJun 19, 2014
Things turn loud and desperate and stay that way. Read full review

The DissolveNathan RabinJun 19, 2014
Think Like A Man Too isn’t a movie, or even an arbitrary sequel to an arbitrary adaptation of a novelty book, so much as an extended victory lap from filmmakers and actors convinced that all they have to do is show up to equal or top the first film’s success. The sad thing is that they’re probably right. Read full review

New Orleans Times-PicayuneMike ScottJun 20, 2014
Unfortunately, Think Like a Man Too never takes the time to elevate any of those characters to beyond mere cardboard cutouts. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckJun 19, 2014
Coming across as more than a little desperate in its unrelenting freneticism, Think Like a Man Too possesses none of the charm of its predecessor. By the time the seemingly endless film reaches its conclusion, you’ll wish that what happened in Vegas had stayed in Vegas. Read full review

New York PostSara StewartJun 18, 2014
If Think Like a Man Too was a man, he would be the world’s worst date: humorless, shrill, speaking primarily in clichés (“what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas!”) and absolutely terrified of women. Read full review
