Comedy Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) and Brad (Will Ferrell) have joined forces to provide their kids with the perfect Christmas. Their newfound partnership is put to the test when Dusty's old-school, macho Dad (Mel Gibson) and Brad's ultra-affectionate and emotional Dad (John Lithgow) arrive just in time to throw the holiday into complete chaos.

	Author	Review
United States	John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A lousy movie made worse by resonance with real-world events (...) Kurt is a figure to turn one's stomach"	NEG
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"A boisterously formulaic and designed-by-committee holiday comedy, enjoys a certain leg up in timing."	NEU
United States	Ben Kenigsberg The New York Times	"Hollywood may be determined to rehabilitate Mr. Gibson, but it’s no stretch to imagine him as a man who cracks a hooker joke in front of children or lectures his granddaughter about how men hunt and women cook."	NEG
United States	Emily Yoshida Vulture	"'Daddy’s Home 2' is trash. Period."	NEG
United States	Chris Nashawaty Entertainment Weekly	"An aggressively mediocre sequel (...) It makes a perfectly fine (and instantly forgettable) diversion"	NEU
United States	Katie Walsh Chicago Tribune	"Surreal and silly sequel (...) The secret sauce that makes the 'Daddy's Home' films work is the strange brew of chemistry between Wahlberg and Ferrell (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Soren Andersen Seattle Times	"A colossal waste of time and the moviegoer’s dollars (...) Worst scenes? So many to choose from (…) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Ignatiy Vishnevetsky AV Club	"'Daddy’s Home 2' doubles the daddies, but not the laughs (...) There are good gags here"	NEU
Canada	Barry Hertz The Globe and Mail	"It fails as an ostensible family comedy (...) It fails as a chemistry experiment (...) It fails in, once again, giving Linda Cardellini anything to do"	NEG
