Critics Consensus

Stephen Lang remains a thrillingly imposing presence in Don't Breathe 2, but this sequel's story strains to find a sensible way forward for his character.

Audience Says

It may not be quite as good as the first Don't Breathe, but this tense, action-packed sequel will keep you on the edge of your seat despite a flawed story.

Read Audience Reviews

Jenny Nulf

Austin Chronicle

Don't Breathe 2 is a horrific and delusional sequel to its predecessor, a tight thriller that had grounded, down-on-their-luck characters, and a film that knew when to pull out the big guns so the audience would root for its unlikeable leads.

Rated: 1/5

Alison Willmore

New York Magazine/Vulture

The brutal gratification of Don't Breathe 2 comes from watching Norman do to the gang what he did in Don't Breathe, only this time, with characters who deserve it.

Jesse Hassenger

AV Club

At times, Don't Breathe 2 assumes the ghoulishness of a Grimm (and grim) fairy tale, the darkness mitigating attempts to rehab Norman into a vengeful anti-hero.

Rated: B-

The concept changes: empathy rests on the blind old man, whom the film transforms into an action hero. [Full review in Spanish]

Loud and Clear Reviews

Gone is the tense and terrifying silence of the first film, replaced instead by the confused and cluttered noise of its sequel, Don’t Breathe 2.

Rated: 2.5/5

Left feeling the same but still enjoyable & entertaining. Switching to more of a slasher thriller Lang goes all in as well as the direction
