Gerard Butler (Plane, Has Fallen series) and O’Shea Jackson Jr. (Straight Out of Compton, Godzilla: King of the Monsters) return in the sequel to 2018's action-heist hit Den of Thieves. In DEN OF THIEVES: PANTERA, Big Nick (Butler) is back on the hunt in Europe and closing in on Donnie (Jackson), who is embroiled in the treacherous and unpredictable world of diamond thieves and the infamous Panther mafia, as they plot a massive heist of the world's largest diamond exchange.

Critics Consensus

Pantera trades the original Den of Thieves' self-seriousness for a more winking lightheartedness that doesn't entirely smooth over its familiarity but ought to satisfy those hankering for absolute Dad Cinema.

While it is fun to reconnect with Big Nick and watch him try new foods, there’s just something missing in this rote “Ronin” ripoff — a danger.

Sydney Morning Herald

It’s not up there with the great heist movies. Butler lacks the charm to generate that kind of appeal, but it has quite a lot going for it. It’s certainly more likeable than its predecessor.

Rated: 3.5/5

Den of Thieves 2: Pantera isn’t a shift from the first film so much as it is a refinement. This is a more elegant, mature manifestation of “dudes rock,” like a Solo cup of limoncello instead of a room-temp bottle of Mountain Dew Code Red.

While visually impressive and competently crafted, this sequel is more of a decent watch than a thrilling standout.

Rated: 3/5

I enjoyed Pantera because it’s functionally a hangout movie and I liked hanging out with Donnie and Big Nick.

Pantera struggles mightily with its pacing throughout the first half, as the energy from the first just doesn’t carry over. The focus is less on the action and more on the heist aspect, but there are some solid character moments during the buildup.

Rated: 5/10
