Critics Consensus

Sailing through on the strength of its predecessor, Another Simple Favor is the perfect cocktail of mystery, intrigue, and sharp casting with a dash of well-timed comedy.

It’s a movie made for the Instagram set. But it could be worse, at least it’s not made for TikTokers.

Rated: 2.5/5

Another Simple Favor essentially plays out the shift from art to “content” in real time, but there is still a little art here.

All in all, it’s a mostly fun time (that one scene notwithstanding) and the costumes are honestly worth the price of admission, along with the stunning shots of Capri’s landscape and narrow streets.

The best thing about “Another Simple Favor” is that it is perfect escapist fare to kick off the summer, set in gorgeous Capri, Italy. The worst thing about “Another Simple Favor” is that it is terrible.

Rated: D

Another Simple Favor is a dazzling disappointment—a sequel that banks on Blake Lively’s star power and a parade of jaw-dropping outfits but forgets to bring a compelling story.

Cape Cod Wave Magazine

This go-round, the Italian scenery and the Kendrick-Lively repartee are pluses, but returning director Paul Feig places too much emphasis on silliness to go with the increasingly absurd plot.

Rated: 2.5/4

Really enjoyed this movie, I really like Anna and Blake’s chemistry. The sense of humor is always on the “dark” side laced with sarcasm, which I like. I’m not really into slap-stick humor. Just an FYI - There is a Reddit group that like Justin, and they are taking turns criticizing ANYTHING with Blake or Ryan in it and leaving fake 5 star rating for Justin. Yes, people are psycho.

During the film, my friend got up to go to the bathroom and we asked if she wanted us to pause it. She said "please don't, I don't even have to go, I just want time to speed up to the part where this movie is over." That sums up how we all felt about it. And no, we didn't make it until the end. We decided to enjoy our lives instead.

So 7 years later they released the sequel. To be completely fair, the first part of the movie was a boredom. This is a thriller/comedy movie. The problem is that there is no comedy whatsoever. Thriller? Yes, but somewhat trying to be "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" (2022) but not getting on that level... But when you add Capri to this mess and great gowns beautiful gowns we get a nicely polished film. It's definitely better than the first movie which I rewatched a couple of years ago and I realized that the movie was kinda weird and enjoyed it much less than the first time I watched it. I felt like I outgrew it for some reason. Don't be very hyped and don't have big expectations. But in general it was pretty enjoyable. The direction and editing was impressive!

Only the less adventurous close minded would give it anything less than five stars… it’s amazing GREAT cast great location THE ISLAND OF CAPRI - a who done it - delightfully entertaining! And this is a sequel. I’ll definitely be purchasing this and checking out the first ‘SIMPLE FAVOR’ -don’t mind the negative reviews. Those wanna be ‘critics’ are still ‘wet behind the ears’ they wouldn’t know a good movie if it smacked them in the face! lol Sincerely ELIZABETH TARANTINO 10/23/2025
