Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway Reviews

Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway is another win for the family-friendly franchise, capturing the same comedic charm that made the first film such a success.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 1, 2022

The lighter moments are not enough to save a film that again feels like the most cynical of studio prospects.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 2, 2022

Rarely is a sequel as much or more fun than the original. [Full review in Spanish]

| Sep 2, 2021

However, this could be the lovely piece of Springtime cinema you pop on every time the flowers bloom for those who are still a kid at heart.

| Original Score: B- | Aug 31, 2021

Cynical sequel - you know, for kids! - doubles down on the nihilistic money-grubbing of the original. Thinks that being clever and meta about its own disenchantment will win us over. It does not.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Jul 30, 2021

All in all, much better than expected.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 27, 2021

A note to parents: Peter Rabbit 2 is absurdist enough to be tolerable. Who knew foxes doing CrossFit would be so funny?

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 23, 2021

It's more fun than expected, and it's abundantly clear that Will Gluck is trying to atone for past mistakes, which is something to be commended. Who knows? Maybe the teased third film will be a masterpiece!

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 22, 2021

[It's] technical quality is exquisite and skilled. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 14, 2021

Between the drab opening (a wedding, ho-hum) and the happily-ever-after-unless-we-make-another finale, there are some inspired moments of human and animal shenanigans.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 9, 2021

Loud, slapstick 'Peter Rabbit 2' is so-so family flick.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 8, 2021

Taken in micro doses, Peter Rabbit 2 has some clever moments but the movie trips over itself in its attempt to satirize what it practices

| Original Score: C | Jul 1, 2021

Still very kid friendly but a little sluggish for adults.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Jun 23, 2021

A charming, witty and big-hearted adventure for the whole family.

| Original Score: 8.45/10 | Jun 22, 2021

Peter Rabbit 2 manages to find some measure of meaning that might surprise one with its depth, and it's a decent message that should affect children and parents in equal measure...

| Jun 18, 2021

This a film wholly without wit, visual or otherwise, in which the boring, unfunny jokes are trickled out slowly and the exciting parts ... are lifelessly marched through.

| Jun 16, 2021

It's the human stars ... who truly shine. Domhnall Gleeson finds fun new ways to fall over. Rose Byrne delivers knowing lines.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 15, 2021

Can Will Gluck recapture this lightning in a bottle with Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway? No. But he sure does try.

| Jun 15, 2021

Unfortunately, ['Peter Rabbit 2'] is nowhere near as grounded [as its predecessor], often steering more toward cartoon antics and less original comedy. However, the continuation still provides wholesome entertainment for the family.

| Original Score: B- | Jun 15, 2021

Snarky, family-friendly fare.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Jun 14, 2021
