• 6.0 India TodayAnanya Bhattacharya Force 2 could have been a lot better had the director paid a bit more attention to the second half of the film. Read
• 6.0 The Times of IndiaNihit Bhave It’s a decent time at the cinema for the thrill-seekers; the action won’t disappoint. Read
• 6.0 FilmfareRachit Gupta This is one impressive action flick. Even though the story is clichéd and lacklustre. Thankfully it does not foil the fun of a well executed and slick action flick. Read
• 6.0 ReutersShilpa Jamkhandikar What works for the film is that the pace doesn't falter - Yash and KK are always chasing the bad guy and hunting for the next clue, which makes it easier to ignore the gaping holes in the plot and focus on John Abraham's action moves. Read
• 6.0 Scroll.inNandini Ramnath This tribute to RAW is undercooked, but it manages to retain its crowd-pleasing flavour. Read
• 6.0 DNA IndiaTushar Joshi 'Force 2' is a great watch mainly because it stays true to its genre and provides ample adrenaline rush. John Abraham is in top form and the film has some of the best action sequences shot this year. Read
• 6.0 Bollywood HungamaBollywood Hungama On the whole, 'Force 2' is a power packed adrenaline pumping action thriller which has the right mixture of zing and force. Read
• 5.0 Mid-dayShaheen Parkar Abhinay Deo's forte are thrillers, John Abraham spells action. The two have had a field day along with action unit and cinematographer. To give them their due, there are some well-crafted action scenes. Read
• 5.0 FirstpostAnna M.M. Vetticad 'Force 2' is not earth-shatteringly memorable, but it is fun. Read
• 5.0 The QuintStutee Ghosh The run time of 126 mins is 'Force 2's biggest strength. It is slick and taut and, therefore, qualifies to at least be a one-time watch! Read
• 5.0 FilmibeatSwikriti Srivastava Overall, 'Force 2' offers nothing that you have not seen before, yet entertains you. Read
• 4.0 Hindustan TimesRohit Vats Trouble is, things start getting out of the director’s grip very soon into the film and that is not good news. Read
• 4.0 Rediff.comRaja Sen The fundamental flaw in a film like this -- other than the repetitive wowlessness of it all -- is the fact that by creating too dry and no-nonsense protagonists instead of fleshing them out as characters, you end up failing the genre. Read
• 4.0 The NationalSonali Kokra 'Force 2' isn't a bad movie, it's just a frustrating one. Read
• 4.0 Deccan ChronicleArnab Banerjee Alas, with all its hard charging action, this muscle-bound steroid-induced John Abraham-Sonakshi Sinha (who looks good, but must shed some more kilos) starrer remains undistinguished and entirely uninvolving as a narrative. Read
• 4.0 The StatesmanPrithviraj Dev While 'Force' was a decent action flick when it released in 2011, its sequel 'Force 2' is anything but entertaining. Read
• 4.0 Film CompanionAnupama Chopra This is actually the most convincing part of 'Force 2'. I totally believe that John Abraham can lift a car or crush dozens of men with his bare hands [...] It's the rest of the film that is difficult to process. Read
• 3.0 The Indian ExpressShubhra Gupta ‘Force 2’ aims for all of those things, and by rights, should have been all of those things, but ends up feeling overlong and stretched, and more than anything else, overfamiliar. Read
• 3.0 The HinduNamrata Joshi However, the supposedly slick action is not enough for a willing suspension of disbelief. Read
