n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

I saw the first Ride Along on an airplane, and then watched it again a year later because I'd forgotten I already saw it. That's pretty much the sequel. Very generic but somewhat fun. I wish there were more bits with Kevin Hart switching to video game mode. The soundtrack was very good, but overall there really should have been more laughs. Also I like Benjamin Bratt and wish he had better/more roles.

Mismatched Atlanta cops and soon to be brothers-in-law James Payton (Ice Cube) and Ben Barber (Kevin Hart) are back and this time Payton is on a case involving a wealthy businessman Antonio Pope (Benjamin Bratt) who he believes is involved in a major drug-trafficking operation. Payton is intent on cracking this case alone, but reluctantly agrees to take Barber along for the 'ride' to give his sister some space to make he final wedding arrangements. How will our 'chalk and cheese' duo face second time around?In the first Ride Along film the plot was on the thin side and it was reliant upon Ice Cube and Kevin Hart's chemistry to make up for its rather generic story. It kind of worked in the first film and it kind of works in this film as well.The main problem with this film is that it does rehash a lot of the jokes that we saw in the first film; the 'fish-out-of-water' stuff with Kevin Hart in the first film was quite funny - even though it did play out as a comedy version of Training Day. What you basically get in the sequel is the same thing which is still quite funny, but it doesn't feel quite as believable the second time around and it lacks the freshness of the first film - could Ben Barber still be this inept and did he not learn anything from the first film? This kind of lack of continuity does hurt the film slightly.As with the first film, the plot is extremely thin and unfocused and our villain of the piece is given no real development. Like the first film, this felt like the slow-motion action sequences and computer animation were more important than the story itself - although I must confess that I thought that the computer animation sequences were a nice touch and were quite funny to watch.Thankfully, the chemistry between Ice Cube and Kevin Hart is still as good as it was in the first film and this is probably the sole thing that makes this film watchable; they're both good in their roles and they seemed to have been injected with more likability second time around. I actually found Hart slightly less annoying in this film and think that he might be starting to grow on me. Benjamin Bratt was effective as the villain (considering he had very little to work with).Whilst I didn't think Ride Along 2 was a brilliant film I have to say that I wasn't bowled over by the first film either and in my opinion Ride Along 2 is every bit as good or bad as the first film. If you liked the first film and don't mind watching another rehash then you should be fine with this sequel. It's watchable, providing you keep your expectations on the low side.

Off the top of my head as I'm sure there are so many more: Ride Along 2, Transporter 2, Mission: Impossible III, Casino Royale, RENO 911!: Miami, Bad Boys 1-II and, of course, Miami Vice: The Mann Movie. These are action films that took place fully or partially in Miami. When I saw Ride Along 2 went to Miami, I was like: Here we go again…and again.BUT…I enjoyed this 'Ride.' I laughed a ton, thought the action was adequate and even the most blatant clichés could be overlooked. If you liked the first one, I think you'll definitely dig this follow-up.Basically, the most obvious criminal in movie politics is in Miami and our mismatched soon-to-be "brothers-in-law," head there to take him down. Really, it's 100% what you'd expect from the original.This is definitely one of the rare occasions that a comedy (action- comedy or not) exceeds expectations during the sequel. Rush Hour 2 is another one that comes to mind. They gave you a new background, but retained the magic of the original in both part 2s.Recommended for both Ride Along 1 fans and even newcomers alike. No need to see the original anyways…even though that's definitely recommended as well.***Final thoughts: It's always worrisome when they release a movie, especially a sequel to a popular movie, in January. This an exception to that rule.
