It's not quite as terrible as a Hangover sequel, but then very few things in life are.

The Indian Express

The jagged narrative and heavy-handed manner of delivering dialogue, much more risible and tasteless than the original, ruins it.

Rated: 1.5/5

It's not funny that able-minded humans spend 150 minutes demonstrating to us what a LSD-fueled midlife crisis would look like.

Welcome Back is sporadically funny, one that ebbs and flows; but it just about passes the "guilty pleasure" test thanks to Kapoor and Patekar.

The National (UAE)

Burdened with a convoluted plot and stale humour, it might well outstay its welcome in cinemas.

Rated: 2/5

Nothing that this nonsensical action comedy unleashes, not even the in-form Anil Kapoor-Nana Patekar pair, can compensate for its absence of substance.

I still remember the first time I saw the first "Welcome" movie. I laughed nonstop and I enjoy watching it again and again. This sequel has almost none of the comedic energy of the first. I thought a few moments almost made me laugh but overall it is pretty humorless. Aside from the flat comedy, the story is also a mess and isn't engaging whatsoever. I felt the movie dragged and is a big let down considering how much silly fun the first movie is. I will probably have to re watch the first to get this bad movie out of my head.

A badly made slapstick where things just don't hang together. It could be quite fun to make a movie where things are completely wanky and stupid but not one where people cannot even do over-the-top acting and where the movie struggles with the continuity.

Disappointing sequel to Welcome. Don't understand why John Abraham's voice was dubbed...so badly. Same with Shruti Hassan's voice. Nana Patekar had a much weaker role. Some of the songs were horrible.

Crappy movie plot with good jokes. If you just want a good laugh then this might be it but you will have to put your thinking hat somewhere else.
