Critics Consensus

The Secret Life of Pets 2 doesn't teach its animated stars any new narrative tricks -- but for fans of the original, this funny, energetic sequel should still satisfy.

The Australian

The Secret Life of Pets 2 brims with the simple joy of being on this planet, with all its ups and downs. I'm sure it will still be in cinemas for the looming school holidays. Any kid who likes animals will love it.

Rated: 3.5/5

The Age (Australia)

The Secret Life of Pets 2 offers a pleasant, innocuous 90 minutes of entertainment for children and to adults who moderate their expectations. Was it worth Illumination spending $US80 million dollars on? Possibly not, but then it isn't your money or mine.

Rated: 2.5/5

...the sunny disposition that’s Illumination’s trademark so far is much in evidence here; The Secret Life of Pets franchise makes it look easy to entertain families, with simple, pleasing gags that offer universal appeal...

Rated: 3/5

Frankly it should’ve been a collection of short films instead. If you like this sort of thing, that’s great, but Toy Story this still ain’t.

Ready Steady Cut

The film, I must admit, has a specific kinetic energy that keeps the pace moving. You could almost call it an animated film about nothing when all three separate storylines meet at the end.

Rated: 3.5/5

Uggh. A whole lot of stupid crammed into such a short time. Best to wait until video so you can sleep thru it while the kids watch.
