The script’s contrivances grow even creakier as we approach the climax of the action. Nonetheless, Leonard and Moorcroft know exactly what they’re doing when it comes to the mechanics of escapism.

Rated: 3/5

The Times (UK)

Even the first film was just a series of feelgood clichés, so there’s no great crime in serving up a new batch with the same cheery spirit. Some of the plot ideas, though, really are desperate.

It all feels rather cursory, subplots as glue to tack together the Cornish tourist board-approved shots of cornflower-blue waters and cloudless skies.

The Post NZ

Like a not-bad second album, there's plenty of filler here -- and a few minutes that could have been left out completely, but Fisherman's Friends 2: One And All probably has just enough decent moments to repeat some of the success of the first film.

Rated: 2.5/5

The AU Review

A boring, insultingly pedestrian film that isn’t even so bad it manages an entertaining personality of sorts, Fisherman’s Friends 2: One and All should be disbanded, unfollowed and put in the bargain bin.

Rated: 1/5

A comedy drama that easily slots into the heartwarming category. What’s not to like, you ask? Well, very little is this critic’s response.

Rated: 3/5

Revisit with friends made in the first film. Perhaps not quite as much singing as I would have liked, but a real delve into the effects of personal loss and defame on friendships and on fame itself. Purefoy was lovely as always, and while not all of the cast returned from the first film, The themes of this one were poignant and well rendered. A simple film, with simple themes, it should leave you with a slightly wistful smile or perhaps a full-on grin. Thoroughly enjoyed this film, and will look forward to the third, which is in discussions currently.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The movie won't win an Oscar, but that's in its favor. Great little British movie with an uplifiting story and gorgeous views of the St. Isaac's Bay and nearby sea. The Welsh brogue is a bit hard to understand from time to time, but still ok.

Although not as good as the original there's still enough there to take the time to watch on a rainy afternoon.
