	Author	Review
United States	Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter	"A fun but trivial follow-up (...) Chockfull of gags and pop-culture references, this latest tale of France’s favorite superhero suffers from a brand-new storyline that fails to convince"	NEU
United Kingdom	Ed Potton The Times	"[It] starts promisingly, with a splendidly random montage in which Roman legionaries and wild boars dance in formation (...) After that it goes downhill, and fast."	NEG
United Kingdom	Mike McCahill The Guardian	"It may provide some distraction, but don’t expect much (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Dan Jolin Empire	"A frustratingly patchy, irritatingly hyperactive, mostly directionless episodic scramble (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
Ireland	Graham Scannain	"I could not believe how unimpressive this film was (...) [It] is a complete waste of time (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
Ireland	John Byrne RTÉ	"While it's a fun movie that rattles merrily along, it lacks a little of the magic that the original storylines have in abundance (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	NEU
