Critics Consensus

Every bit the proselytizing lecture promised by its title, God's Not Dead 2 preaches ham-fistedly to its paranoid conservative choir.

I enjoyed this overall as I thought the message was good & drives home a good point while supported by a good cast. Nice to see Hartman in something other than Sabrina

It's an inspiring movie. God is most definitely, not dead! Unless someone can prove that a mindless nothing created all life, and all the food, and the water, for all life to survive and prosper. The incredible accuracy of Bible prophecy proves that God's not dead. I liked the first move more, but this is really good, also. Good drama! Good truth! I just don't have enough faith to be an atheist.

Somehow inferior to its predecessor, God's Not Dead 2 is thinly written and glaringly childish, perhaps best appreciated for its provenance of Pure Flix's victim-playing and Christian persecution complex beliefs.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

This movie paints a fictional world in which Christians are oppressed. However, it this not disclose that this is happening in Fantasy Land and just pretends this is our current world. Mostly good acting for what amounts to the most comically bad dialogue ever written.

Observer (UK)

Shot in holy high-definition, with lots of histrionic crane shots that swoop down like angels from on high and a score that batters the audience into observance, this is a film that will work best when preaching to the converted.

Rated: 2/5

While the first God's Not Dead fed the persecution complex of evangelical Christians, God's Not Dead 2 takes that complex to Golden Corral.
