Audiences who enjoyed the first Hot Shots! will probably be tickled by this second helping, although the barrage of laughs miss more than they hit this time around.

Sheila Johnston Independent (UK) The film fields the usual suspects (Lloyd Bridges notably), and many, but not nearly enough, of the usual jokes. Sep 9, 2021 Full Review Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: C+ Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader This is a long way from the inspirations of Airplane! Feb 4, 2008 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...an agreeable yet perpetually erratic comedy that’s barely able to justify its already-short running time... Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 3, 2023 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …a fittingly silly finale to a series that never lost its momentum… Rated: 3/5 Jul 10, 2022 Full Review Malcolm Johnson Hartford Courant As it charges along to its disappointingly hollow payoff, Part Deux grows increasingly violent, with a graphic in one corner of the screen toting up kills like a video game Jun 7, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Rare T Hot Shots: Part Deux is arguably better than its prequel, as the satire is more comprehensive, there are more jokes especially of the tier you’d find in movies like Airplane!, and the overall plot has more room for humor. The circle is made complete by the cast, whether new members like Rowan Atkinson, or others from the first installment, and that itself provokes a piece of self-slander within the dialogue. Also, there is a Casablanca reference that isn’t mentioned much. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review thiago v Um pouco melhor do o primeiro, e as referências de outros filmes foram boas, gostei também da luta entre o presidente vs saddam sussuein , charlie sheen foi muito bem no protagonismo Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/25/24 Full Review Cluedo This one is in my opinion better then the first one and doesnt let you done. It still is one of the funniest movies ever made in my opinion Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/08/24 Full Review Price M Best movie ever!!!!! A++++ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/28/24 Full Review Justin W Haha perfect for holiday season, why get so serious??? Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review Bryce H Couldn't even finish it, it was so bad! Humor fell flat and wasn't anywhere near entertaining.
