	Author	Review
United States	Michael Nordine Variety	"With sequels like this, who needs enemies?. John Cena is as funny as ever, but everything else in this follow-up should have stayed on vacation."	NEG
United States	Nate Richard Collider	"While the returning cast is still gleefully committed, this comedy sequel loses much of the charm of its predecessor."	NEU
United States	Jesse Hassenger IGN	"Arriving just two years after the original, 'Vacation Friends 2' aspires to freewheeling irreverence, but settles for screeching tires and canned outbursts"	NEG
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"The four lead performers display an undeniable chemistry that makes Vacation Friends 2 pleasantly engaging if not hilarious"	NEU
Canada	Nadir Samara Screen Rant	"[It] has its flaws, but it finds a way to get a laugh out of us (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Ricky Valero Ready Steady Cut	"Although Lil Rel Howery and John Cena deliver their great chemistry, they can’t save a lackluster script that fails to capture the magic of the original. (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Benjamin Lee The Guardian	"Painfully unfunny comedy sequel (...) An unwanted follow-up to 2021’s mediocre caper manages to be even worse, wasting a talented cast and replacing humour with grating chaos (...) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Calum Marsh The New York Times	"A perfunctory sequel with an even duller story"	NEG
United States	Nick Allen rogerebert.com	"Now we have something that’s even worse and more testing than 'Vacation Friends' (...) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	John Serba Decider	"[It] is a phenomenal waste of time and talent"	NEG
