Speed 2: Cruise Control Ratings & Reviews
匚卂尺ㄥ 匚ㄖㄖ爪乃乇丂

🚢💨 I actually truly must stick up for this movie as I love it, its just an old school classic action movie! hell yeah its cheesy in places but that just adds to the charm, its big, bold and lots of fun on a massive scale, way more than the original, am I the only one who actually thinks the original is boring? speed the original had Keanu who just is a donkey turd at acting in anything, Dennis hopper who was boring, I think Willem Defoe was a great villain, much better, an over the top eccentric performance and a good story arc, of course Sandra Bullock is back who I love, crazy over the top again but she's a fine actress and good to look at, this sequel has bigger action, more plausible as they are on water and not in traffic, great budget explosions etc., Jason Patric is a decent lead, better than Keanu any day, this is top popcorn fun and classic action from start to finish, underrated I say, go back to it you will probably enjoy it!!
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
Speed 2 is the most exciting to date of this summer's big action pictures.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
An ear-splitting amusement-park attraction posing as a movie.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
In Speed 2, De Bont is, so to speak, at sea.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Desmond Ryan
De Bont remains an expert director of action, but putting the reference to cruise control in the title serves as fair warning of an unengaged filmmaker on automatic pilot.
Seattle Times
Keith Simanton
[A] truly horrid sequel.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
It's a complete lack of story that explains why this expensive production from the proficient creator of Speed and Twister sputters out on the high seas.
CNN.com
Carol Buckland
It's not really worth sinking your time and money into. This movie is more floundering than fun.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Speed 2 is frantic action, tinny dialogue, perfunctory characterization and tried-and-false plot pilferings.
AV Club
Stephen Thompson
Speed cost something like $30 million; this sequel cost four times as much. So why is it such a feeble, aimless piece of junk in comparison?
TIME Magazine
Richard Schickel
The human propensity to tamper with a good thing is probably ineluctable.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Do yourself a favor and see a movie instead.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
[It] sinks faster than a rock.
Variety
Emanuel Levy
Speed 2 suffers from a slender script, a tedious first reel and a routine villain who lacks the entertaining menace that Speed's diabolical madman projected.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
Speed 2 doesn't have much in mind besides convincing an audience that a runaway ocean liner is a dynamic menace. Fine, but it doesn't beat a runaway bus.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Even the film's big-ticket closing stunts are more impressive for their size than for any excitement they generate.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
They keep getting worse and worse and worse . . .
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Movies like this embrace goofiness with an almost sensual pleasure. And so, on a warm summer evening, do I.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
What a reeking bag of nothingness! What emptiness, what vaporous vapidity! What rot, stink, and whiff of mold spore!
Salon.com
Charles Taylor
I hope that somewhere Keanu Reeves is laughing about being considered a nonactor while the wax dummy Jason Patric has somehow achieved a rep as intense and gifted.
