  1. Things spin swiftly out of control with uneven acting and misfired physical gags.
  2. Where the first pic breezed along with gags and gunplay, this forced follow-up is artificial to the hilt - fueled on a kind of trying-too-hard hilarity that makes even good actors look bad.
  3. 30
    At least it isn't a remake -- though given how slovenly and forced this movie is, maybe that wouldn't have been such a bad idea.
  4. 30
    The least necessary sequel since "Agent Cody Banks" embarked on a London mission a few weeks ago.

  1. Even better than the first one!!! So unbelievably hilarious that I had to watch it many times! Matthem Perry still amazing and Bruce Willis great as usual. Thank you for that film!!! Expand
  2. Everything that was enjoyable and funny about The Whole Nine Yards was reattempted in this sequel that fell flat on its face from the word "Go." While by no means a terrible film, The Whole Ten Yards holds none of the original quirkiness, fun of the first, while also trying to work around an absurd plot that makes absolutely no sense. While somewhat funny, the film really isn't worth the watch. Expand
