You chuckle, maybe laugh for a hot second. But you want more.

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

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 2, 2016

What it does do - is allow you to park your brain in neutral for 100 minutes, laugh at some silly jokes... and then walk out of theatre and immediately forget it ever happened. And there's nothing wrong with that. In fact, it's kind of refreshing.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 4, 2016

Not good, then, but not especially terrible and infinitely preferable to the excrescence of Hart's previous outing, Get Hard.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 24, 2016

The film is likeable but nowhere near as sharp or as funny as you hope it is going to be.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 22, 2016

You could make a better feature by repeatedly throwing a camera into a lake.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 22, 2016

As deprived of humour as it may be, Ride Along 2 is also pleasantly, stubbornly watchable.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 22, 2016

It's barely there. You could go along, but you won't do a great deal of laughing along.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 21, 2016

Ride Along 2, which picks up not long after the first film ended, doesn't mess much with the formula, except that everything feels more frayed and tired this time around.

Hart and Cube are too good to settle for hawking leftovers. They deserve better. So do we.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 16, 2016

Hart and Cube's pairing should be comic gold, a chance to be daring and topical. Unfortunately, the writers behind this series wouldn't recognize a half-decent joke if it were read aloud to them like their Miranda rights.

Ride Along 2 - everything one would expect and less - is over-the-top imbecilic.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 15, 2016

"Ride Along" was a surprise hit, earning $135 million and becoming Ice Cube and Kevin Hart's biggest starring vehicle. "Ride Along 2" is essentially more of the same, and Hart is its driving force. Ride with it.

| Original Score: B- | Jan 15, 2016

Ride Along 2 - propelled by an unintelligent, predictable story line and enough gunplay and explosions to eradicate a small nation - is good for a few belly laughs. But not much more.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 15, 2016

A low-wattage sequel to a comedy that wasn't exactly glowing in the first place.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 14, 2016

Kevin Hart clowns, Ice Cube growls. Rinse and repeat.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 14, 2016

Like any serving of junk food, it seems engineered to give you that initial rush of satisfaction, but leaves you in a dead zone where the only thing you want is more of the same.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 14, 2016

"Ride Along 2," it may not surprise you to learn, is a lot like "Ride Along," only less so.

Eddie Murphy, please come back and show these clowns how it's done.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 14, 2016

If you thought the first one was fun, taking another spin won't disappoint.
