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.

Lively and Kendrick still spark, but it all feels a little contrived, compared to the free-wheeling chaos of Simple’s pleasures.

The Daily Beast

Feig said Another Simple Favor is the first sequel he’s made because sequels so rarely work. This one doesn’t prove him wrong. At the same time, it’s an amusing enough diversion that makes sense as a Prime Video release.

Grounded characters are gone, and we're left with caricature. The issue is due as much to the script and direction as it is the two lead performances, as neither Kendrick nor Lively seem to be all that interested in putting the effort in here.

The storyline was too slow. I couldn't finish it. I tried to push forward but couldn't keep watching halfway into it. I'm very surprised that the critics rated it so high.

Waste of money and potential, I loved Blake Lively clothes but that's it, however was a little bit incoherent with the character and now I see Im pretty sure it was her idea of wearing all that also it seem stupid I felt embarrassment.... Ana Kendrick was Amazing if there is going to be a 3rd please should be her investigating something on her own no more Blake Lively. Thanks!
