Critics Consensus

A formulaic comedy that's unlikely to spread much yuletide merriment, Daddy's Home 2 can only muster a few stray yuks from its talented cast.

The heartwarming moments seemed forced and overall the all star cast seemed wasted. There are still a couple of funny moments to be had.

"Daddy's Home 2" is my favorite movie, alongside "Crazy Rich Asians". It's festive, funny, and has Will Ferrell & Mark Wahlberg.

PlanetAwnsers Studios

Judge movies by what they are, this isn't a Scorse film or a Drama it's a Christmas comedy and it does it extremely well. It has a lot of laughs, innocent moments, gags, Christmas songs, and a funny chemistry between all the characters that feels like a modern take on Christmas with separated families.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Gibson could scarcely hope to play a character more like himself if he landed the lead in The Mel Gibson Story.

Times (UK)

The best that can be said for Daddy's Home 2 is that it's slightly less awful than its recent female-led counterpart, A Bad Moms Christmas.

Rated: 2/5

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

A cynical, synthetic piece of Hollywood production line tat, which reheats the narrative leftovers of an already mediocre domestic comedy about blended families.

Rated: 1/5

Deep Focus Review

A series of clumsy slapstick gags, exaggerated conflicts, and formulaic holiday comedy nonsense.

Rated: 0.5/4

Leigh Monson

Substream Magazine

...a milquetoast artifact of antiquated social norms, choosing to mock the notion of blended families while claiming to be empathetic to them.
