Physical, Succinct, Mild
Explanations Below:
Physical: This movie reminds me of a 90's comedy. More about the physical gags then hilarious lines or amusing antics. Things like using your partner's bullet proof vest (While they're still wearing it), or amusing slaps being exchanged during a heated situation. I want to say the physical comedy is welcome, but with two really funny people in Cube and Hart on display... I feel like we comedy viewers were cheated just a bit.
Succinct: This movie gets a nice amount of stuff right. Including the wonderfully brisk pace, and a run time that seemed perfect. I never once found myself losing interest, nor did I feel like any details or situations needed wrapping up. It's rare to find a movie (Especially a throw-away buddy-cop comedy) that doesn't outstay it's welcome.
Mild: I came away pleased with the ticket money spent, but I can't say I'd see it again if given the chance. My expectations were a bit higher due to my enjoyment of the previous film, but even without high expectations I think this movie misses on just enough things to keep it from being a solid comedy. Enjoyable sure, but it could definitely have been more.
