The mystifyingly popular Kevin Hart returns with this sequel to 2014’s Ride Along, where he again imitates the amount of shrieking wannabe-comic stylings Chris Tucker was doing within the ‘90s. And here he’s again paired with the ever formidable Ice Cube, who as within the first, seems like he’s calling upon all his perseverence just to resist throttling his annoying co-star.
The first film’s director Tim Story’s also agreeable, but there’s nothing much the guy can do with that these porn files, especially as it’s a lot more preposterous than before. Atlanta detective James Payton (Ice Cube) is found once more reluctantly using the services of rookie beat cop Ben Barber (Kevin Hart) to thrill Angela (Tika Sumpter), James’ sister who’s soon to marry Ben (and why she’d might like to do such a thing is one kind of the endless credibility gaps here). James becomes alert to a whole lame plot happening in Miami and wants to sign up, and although he seriously doesn’t want Ben there (especially from a ludicrous opening credit sequence), he still agrees going without running shoes. Why? To professionally embarrass Ben, his soon-to-be-brother-in-law, preventing him from being promoted. Families, huh?
Soon once they arrive in Miami they hook-up with another detective (Olivia Munn), and start chasing around an informant named AJ, who’s enjoyed standard awfulness by Ken Jeong. And this has all got something related to a drug-kingpin baddie who’s infiltrated the neighborhood police force and government, and hubby’s dully played from the dreary Benjamin Bratt because Robert De Niro was busy.
This hopelessly absurd storyline doesn’t make much sense but that’s definitely not the point here, as fans of Kevin Hart (hello available!!!) have paid a nice income to see their hero do his hideous thing, and the man certainly will it, since the Iceman looks on sneering. And you would too.
