D+
The setpieces are sloppy and unexciting to the extreme, and most of them, like a low-energy fight aboard a double-decker bus, are shapeless to the point that they simply end instead of building to a climactic beat. Go to Full Review

1/4
It’s aneven-worse study in lazy filmmaking, aggressively unfunny clichés, and bland action sequences. Go to Full Review
Peter Travers The Travers Take Nov 21
2/4
This sequel barely makes the grade as escapism, but wash it down with holiday cheer, put your brain on low power, let forgiveness into your heart and it’s—sound the trumpets—passable. Go to Full Review
Erik Childress Movie Madness Podcast 5d
1.5/4
The sequel can at least divorce itself from the staleness of the family not knowing what’s up to give them a more active role, but that still leaves the audience with an inconsequential villain and even more forgettable action. Go to Full Review
Calum Baker Radio Times Dec 17
2/5
The dialogue is lazy and the characters are thin clichés; so, while a few gags hit their marks, the plot remains far too bland to really hold any attention. Go to Full Review

39/100
Whether or not you enjoy another Family Plan will depend on whether you enjoyed the first film. while I can say the sequel flows better, I am still not a fan. Go to Full Review

Carlos N @Can545 2d It was just a bit boring, so I decided to play scrabble instead. The first film was fun…..in this installment, I just did not care about the family at all. And the whole revenge thing was silly. Please don’t make a third one. See more thiago s @Thiagostone 2d Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Nathan J. @TribianiRamoray 2d Rating: 5.2/10 A predictable sequel retreading the "family vacation gone wrong" formula with higher stakes but less fun. Highlights - European Setting: Nice change of scenery; adds personal stakes with Dan's brother Finn. - Solid Cast: Michelle Monaghan shines; Kit Harington chews scenery as villain. - Decent Action: Paris car chases are competent; production values are solid. Criticisms - Formulaic Plot: Tired "surprise family member villain" trope; underdeveloped heist. - Phoning It In: Mark Wahlberg seems uninvested; kids feel sidelined. - Lacks Novelty: Relies on manufactured drama; feels like streaming filler. Verdict A strictly average sequel with safe action-comedy. European setting and Harington's villainy provide some spark, but generic script and lack of surprises make it forgettable. Fine for casual Apple TV+ watch. See more Botev F @Botev1921 3d This is by far one of the worst movies ever created. It is a career killer for everybody involved as it literally looks like written and shot by a 1st year student! See more Leslie S @leleshor 4d Had to stop watching when the mom was saying how an amazing job she could get will upset the family. Ugh read the room. It is 2025 and women's rights are in peril, we don't need the media downgrading women's ambition and desire to work outside the home. It is not 1950 and no one wants to see this drivel. Wake up Hollywood. I hope someone important reads this.
