What this sequel delivers is still the kind of high-speed roller-coaster action that producer Joel Silver's films often do so well.
Geoff Andrew, Time Out

The movie isn't going anywhere, but it goes in circles at top speed.

Mediocrity wielded by experts.

They know what they're doing and how to do it, but we miss the sense of invention that brightened the earlier movies.
