Critics Consensus

A genially mediocre sequel to its similarly middling predecessor, Murder Mystery 2 could have been much better… and a whole lot worse.

Audience Says

Murder Mystery 2 has a few laughs and might even be better than the first one, but all in all, that really isn't saying much.

The Australian

It’s a Friday night movie; one to watch with a glass of something and the brain in sleep mode.

Rated: 3/5

Pyrotechnics are plentiful, but laughs are not.

Nina Metz

Chicago Tribune

Ding-dongs solving mysteries is a decent premise. But the house style of the movies is more celebrities-delivering-lines rather than its two leads committing to the camp of it all.

Rated: 1.5/4

The Hindu

The clues in ‘Murder Mystery 2’ are clever and inclusive, like the music at the ‘sangeet’ for a jolly travelogue pulled along smoothly on the rails of Aniston’s and Sandler’s considerable comic talent

Lady Geeks Media

While Murder Mystery 2 might lack depth and a concrete theme to balance the narrative, Aniston and Sandler make it an undeniable delight worth watching.

Movie Madness Podcast

Sandler and Aniston have such a breezy chemistry that we wish that this entire series had the kind of smarts and creativity to be found in the Knives Out films and TV's The AfterParty

Rated: 2/4

In short, not a good movie. The cast is made up of a lot of the same annoying characters from the first movie, with the new additions, being even more annoying. The plot is pretty typical, but they make no connection between the main villain and the crime that took place. It’s just a person that randomly shows up and then we’re allowed to believe that they had a part and everything. Not a ton of laughs and an ending that supremely drawn out with no upside whatsoever. I’m sure tons of people watch this and while I funded it with my Netflix subscription I’m so glad I didn’t pay money to see this in theaters.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
