Daddy Home 2 Funny or Not
Adding Gibson to the cast was brilliant in my opinion!
'DADDY'S HOME 2': Four Stars (Out of Five)
A sequel to the 2015 hit comedy starring Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg, as two rival fathers competing for the same children's love. In this follow-up they're now friends, and they have to deal with their own fathers visiting for the holidays, who are also complete opposites as well of course. Mel Gibson and John Lithgow join the cast, as the elder dads, while Linda Cardellini and John Cena also reprise their roles from the original movie. The film was once again directed by Sean Anders, and it was written by Anders and John Morris (the same duo also co-wrote the original, as well as 'HOT TUB TIME MACHINE', 'SEX DRIVE', 'SHE'S OUT OF MY LEAGUE', 'WE'RE THE MILLERS', 'HORRIBLE BOSSES 2', and other hit comedies). This film has received nearly unanimous negative reviews from critics, but it's done really well at the Box Office (and with viewers there). I thought it was pretty funny too actually.
Brad and Dusty (Ferrell and Wahlberg) now get along perfectly, and our doing a really effective job co-parenting their kids together. Then both of their fathers, Kurt (Gibson) and Don (Lithgow), decide to visit them for the holidays. Kurt is extremely egotistical, obsessively masculine, and a bit of a sexist asshole. Don is really sweet, kind and friendly. More family drama occurs because of their visit, which causes conflict between Brad and Dusty again as well. Especially when Brad invites the biological father (Cena) of Dusty's stepdaughter over.
The movie is frequently very funny. It definitely has some bad jokes in it too, and it's a pretty routine family Christmas comedy, but it's still mostly funny. Adding Gibson to the cast, as the womanizing chauvinistic pig, was brilliant casting in my opinion as well, and he's hilarious in the role. Lithgow is also good in his part too, and Ferrell and Wahlberg are both effective once again too. I actually enjoyed this sequel more than it's predecessor; it seems more packed with quality humor to me, at least in my opinion. It's also more fun that it's set at Christmas (in my opinion as well).

I love this movie
This, in my opinion, is a fantastic movie. The actors and actresses are phenomenal. I do love that they added Mel Gibson, who plays the perfect "dad" to Mark Wahlberg. Will Ferrell and John Lithgow are a true match for a "father/son" combo.
To me, this movie is uplifting and all around fun. I, unfortunately, deal with a lot of stress/anxiety but I turn this movie on and it "soothes" me.
I can't wait for number 3.
Thank you to all the wonderful people who made this movie happen.

under-rated enough to question critics
These days I rarely enter an IMDb review. And when I have in the past it has usually been to offer an under-represented opinion. Here goes:
I suspect that some critics are triggered by bits that appear in trailers for the film, like the running joke that Will Ferrell kisses his father John Lithgow as Mel makes wry commentary on it. What someone today might call "gay panic" or "homophobia" is actually better described as CULTURE SHOCK, a term without so much judgment. It is all part of a character arc and effectively underscores the difference in parenting styles at the heart of the movie's conflicts.
This movie opened on my father's birthday, which might have been a good time to see it (or a terrible weepy time) but I had to work. I finally saw it and had the cinema all to myself on a Friday afternoon. The movie deserves more success. It is about on par with most Christmas dysfunction movies like Christmas Vacation. Watching a few of the set-piece moments, especially where they culminate, I am flabbergasted that critics have been hostile. Rotten Tomatoes guaranteed fresh the remake of Ghostbusters and this movie gets a splat? Something is rotten besides tomatoes in the state of Denmark.
The movie skewers gun safety, drinking, and Christmas rituals --- while introducing something I've never heard of: Do people dress as characters in public Nativity scenes? Overall, I found the movie pleasant and mild. The actors are all charming, even the model girlfriend who actually does have a discrete character that isn't quite a cliché.
You can safely disregard any review by a Mel Gibson hater. Adam Carolla's co-host reported Mel saying some quite correct and positive things about the trend of holding abusers accountable, but then she couldn't resist what she called a "refresher" on Mel's past troubles. Those kinds of "refreshers" tend to leave out CONTEXT!!!! and also tend to omit the factor of alcoholism and bipolar disorder, two valid obstacles which I am pleased to see him overcome. He is quite funny in this. I hope he keeps acting (and directing).
There is a fun movie within a movie that is an interesting commentary on Hollywood taste. The movie had me laughing (albeit alone in an otherwise empty theatre) and pretty much smiling the rest of the time. I found it to be a notch better and funnier than the original. Will and Mark are a bit more grounded here. The one scene that didn't work for me as physical comedy was a snow blower catching a string of Christmas lights and pulling it dangerously around, only because it reminded me of a cable snapping in the Piranha remake and slicing someone. The possibility of serious injury was prolonged a few seconds too much. But most of the movie is about little mundane moments and conflicts people can rise above. The ending is Christmas Movie cheesy and that is okay with me.

If you don't like Will Ferrell just don't watch this movie and stop whining about it
Why the haters would even start watching this movie is a mystery to me. If you don't like Will Ferrell then just don't watch this movie because it is the same humor as in all the other movies he's been in. I love Will Ferrell and his stupid humor with his nerdy face, so to me this is a good movie. I thought it was even better then the first one. This time John Lidgow is also in the cast and that's another comedian that makes me laugh all the time. They couldn't have found a better guy to play the father of Will Ferrell. Mel Gibson as the father of Mark Whalberg was also a good match. The story might be a bit dorky but I didn't expect anything else. It's all about the silly humor, and if you're not into that, just skip this movie instead of wasting your time twice by watching it and writing a bad review about it. If you do love that kind of humor I'm sure you will have a couple of good laughs.

A Christmas classic for me.
Warning: Spoilers
Daddy's Home laid the foundations, Daddy's Home 2 further rose them into a stupendous construction that intelligently added more ingredients carefully thought out. It's almost as if the casting director, writers and filmmakers knew exactly what Daddy's Home needed in order to make a better sequel, even with the perfect amount of elements needed, nothing more, nothing less. Of course these elements which I'm referring to are the always warming and family-friendly holiday setting and the obviously salient, hugely welcomed inclusions of two tremendous actors like Mel Gibson and John Lithgow, two polar opposites as already shown with Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell. It is truly impressive how well the casting turned out with them, they played their parts perfectly, you can truly see "like father, like son" written all over their characters.
So these newcomers throw in their dynamics and bring along an exciting mixture of associations between the four characters. Mel Gibson cleverly delivers his hilarious swagger and macho attitude that contrastingly clashes with the soft, gentle and sensitive John Lithgow whom also portrays fabulously and pretty accurately a character basicly designed to be Will Ferrell's character, but older. Many hilarious situations take place, from Brad (Ferrell) and Dusty (Wahlberg) receiving their dads, Don (Lithgow) and Kurt (Gibson) at the airport to a terrible mishap with Christmas lights.
The teasing of John Cena's character at the end of the first film was well-put in, because it felt there was room to explore his character as well. It proved to be another astute move on behalf of the casting directors, since his inclusion actually made this movie a lot funnier. A new rivalry emerges with him and Rusty, who wants to be liked by his step-daughter, who hates him and unconditionally loves his daddy, Roger (Cena). The whole family goes to a cabin, where Brad and Dusty find themselves going at it once again. The manger scene is exhilarating, definitely one of the best in the whole film. Overall, I find it to be very consistent, it can hardly disappoint, unless you're biased by dislike or hatred towards either Mel Gibson or Will Ferrell.
The ending puts everything in perspective, as with most holiday movies, this one also leaves a heart-warming and sentimental message about forgiving and family union, along with the classic Christmas carol, this time tenderly singing all together "Do They Know It's Christmas?".
A Christmas classic in my book, I have seen it many times already. If you enjoyed it as much as I did, it can become a classic in your book too.

Daddy's Home 2: About what you'd expect
I enjoyed Daddys Home (2015), it was a nice take your brain out comedy that exceeded my low expectations.
A sequel is not something I forsaw and upon seeing the trailer I felt this was going to be a blatant cashgrab, and it kind of is.
Immediatly I was concerned by the cast additions, I despise both Gibson and Cena but credit where credit is due Gibson was on fine form. The kind of form in fact I haven't seen him in for a good decade! Cena however, still sucked.
Wahlberg, Ferrell, Cardellini and Lithgow are great and really make the best of a questionable script. Jokes are predictably hit and miss (More miss than hit), it's full of tack and schmultz and doesn't reach the same level of the original.
It's not a complete mess and does manage to deliver the laughs, but considering this is entirely supposed to be a comedy it simply doesn't have enough!
Nice try, but let's not make this a trilogy ok?!
The Good:
Cast are great
Lithgow and Gibson are excellent
The Bad:
Simply not that funny for the most part
Annoyingly dark in places
Sappy
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Making out with your step-sister is bad
Linda Cardellini doesn't know how to age

Prepare yourself for more laughs, because the daddies (and their daddies) are back...
I was really looking forward to this sequel, because I really enjoyed the first movie tremendously.
And when I saw that they added Mel Gibson and John Lithgow to the cast list as well, then what was there not to like all the more?
Luckily, this movie actually kept up to speed with its predecessor, and there was every bit as much fun and laughs here as in the first movie.
The characters in the movie are great, and they are nicely portrayed by a great ensemble of actors and actresses.
There are lots of hilarious situations in the entire movie, and I was laughing hard many times throughout the movie.
So, if you enjoyed the first "Daddy's Home" movie, then you definitely have to watch part 2 as well. Because it is every bit as fun and entertaining.

About what was expected
Early on in the production of 'Daddy's Home 2' there were rumours flying around that this one would start off where the first one finished with John Cena being the main antagonist of the film, and I thought surely they wouldn't go down that route. John Cena has the charisma of a wet sandbag. Plus it would take away from the main selling point these films have which is the chemistry between Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell. While he does play a larger part in this film than in the first, he is far from a lead actor in it luckily. They made a wise choice on that front.
They did though decide to add Mel Gibson and John Lithgow into the mix and I love this decision. Both were ideally cast (I may have preferred Chevy Chase in Lithgow's role fractionally but I'm okay with the choice they made) and nailed their roles. Gibson in particular is possibly the highlight of the film. It's so refreshing to see him acting in a comedy again because he is a very funny man when he wants to be.
The writing lets the film down in places. There are some lazy jokes and scenes where it's quite hard to understand what exactly they were going for. The chemistry between Ferrell and Wahlberg still isn't quite perfected in these films either. They nailed it in 'The Other Guys' but not quite in either of these films. The real surprise in this film though is just how funny the child actors turned out to be. They were funnier than the adults far more often than they were entitled to be. A very pleasant element to the film. All up the film is probably about on par with the original. It plays it surprisingly safe for the most part and it will be hard to seperate the two films in my mind a few years down the track I suspect. Could have been better, could have been worse.

Great Comedy
This is much better than the first one. I'm 50 and my daughter is 19 and we laughed all the way thru it. The first one is a little to sappy for me, but the second one is pure comedy. It's just fun. The 4 male stars have the best chemistry and deliver lines with such timing it's refreshing. Have fun

Better than the first.
Warning: Spoilers
I laughed, I cried. You really kinda had to have the first one to follow this one right away though. I don't want to spoil the funniest scenes or the moving ones so I'll be short. Will Ferrell is on top of his game, hammy yet funny and real at the same time. The real star of the movie is an old pro working it harder than anyone, and that's John Lithgow. And John Cena has developed his comedy chops very well. And you'll never listen to a certain Christmas song the same way again.

Almost the same as the first with grandfathers and less laughs and less fun.
Warning: Spoilers
Daddy's Home 2 had the potential of being comedic and fun like how the first film was. But like most comedy sequels, this one was a dud with most of the laughs already shown in the trailers. While the rest of the 90 or so minutes being completely a drag and boring. The first film was a lot of fun with the concept of step dad vs. dad with Will Ferrell vs. Mark Wahlberg. They do make a perfect comedic duo. Daddy's Home 2 tries for the cheap laughs and gags but it's less than the first, and the newcomers were a fun addition like Mel Gibson and John Lithgow. But there talent was not enough to save this film. Not even Mark Wahlberg, and Will Ferrell chemistry was good enough to make it worth watching.
The plot follows Brad (Will Ferrell) and Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) being codads with their children. Dusty is trying to get along with his resistant stepdaughter who pays too much attention to her phone. While, the kids going back and forth between their stepfather and father becomes a tiresome. They decide to celebrate Christmas together in one household. Then, comes the surprise when Dusty's father (Mel Gibson) calls and says he is coming over. When Dusty and Brad's fathers are coming to visit their grandkids. They decide to go on a holiday retreat to beat having to debate where they are opening gifts and whose house they are having dinner at. Then, that's where the fun begins with Brad and Dusty's parenting is being criticized by their own fathers with Gibson's tough love parenting vs. Lithgow's sensitive compassion parenting comes to play.
I love Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell chemistry in the first film. Sadly, this sequel fails to generate any laughs or gags. Most of the fun parts were already shown in the trailers. Mel Gibson's character is like a dead beat with jokes about hookers, teaching boys to be tough man and to hunt to provide for their ladies. While the ladies stay in the kitchen and cook. Which caused his granddaughter to take charge and wanting to hunt a turkey and learn how to shoot a rifle. While John Lithgow is a sensitive father figure, that gets emotional at every single thing. But when Dusty's father sees that his stepdaughter is walking all over the parents. He lectures that Dusty needs to lay the hammer with discipline.
The film's script is dried out with lacking humor this time with the concept of grandfather vs. grandfather, and who can raise their kids better. But it just wasn't as funny as the first.
Overall, Daddy's Home 2 is a terrible film. The script is lacking in humor. There were barely any laughs or gags. The plot was boring.
I rate the film 1.5 out of 5 stars. I do not recommend the film unless you are really bored, otherwise I ll consider it as a rental.

A rare comedy sequel that is funnier than the first one!
If you liked Daddy's Home you'll love the follow up, I have no doubts about that.
The addition of John Lithgow and Mel Gibson was inspired. The casting was spot on, and in particular the chemistry between Lithgow and Ferrell was just exceptional.
As you'd expect, Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg both smashed it, showing once again that they have fantastic on screen chemistry.
The humour was great, the story was fun, and it had a lovely Christmassy vibe. It doesn't reinvent the wheel, rehashing some of the same jokes/themes from the first film, but that doesn't mean they aren't still funny and there are enough new ideas to keep things fresh.
A great laugh and a solidly entertaining film!

Some good comedy moments drowned in schmaltz.
Comedy and tragedy have always gone together hand-in-hand. Every great comedy tends to have its bitter-sweet moments: Roberts Blossom as the "shovel-killer" grandad in "Home Alone" (who always reminds me of my late Dad... in appearance I might add, not that he was a shovel killer!); John Candy's depressed shower-ring salesman in "Planes Trains and Automobiles"; Ron Burgundy bawling in a phone box in "Anchorman". The balance between the two is the key thing and comedies can sometimes get it wrong (the Bird Woman in "Home Alone 2" for example!).
Here is another case in point: "Daddy's Home 2", which has some laugh-out-loud comedy moments, but is generally so utterly drenched in schmaltz and sentimentality that the film becomes far harder work than it should be. (By the way, I never saw "Daddy's Home" (but read the IMDB synopsys): it was not a prerequisite for seeing this movie).
Will Ferrell ("Get Hard", "Anchorman") reprises his role as the somewhat incompetent Brad, 'sharing' his family of kids and stepkids with the much more streetwise Dusty (Mark Wahlberg, "Patriot's Day"). After a poignant school recital, the pair realise the damage that a distributed Christmas is doing to their offspring and they determine to spend Christmas all together this year. In the process they vow to try to put aside their attempts at one-upmanship - "the harbour is closed" - in the interests of giving everyone the best Christmas ever.
But their plans are turned upside down when their fathers also turn up for Christmas: Mel Gibson (in a sublime piece of casting) plays Dusty's dad, astronaut-hero Kurt, who is even more macho and extreme than Dusty, and John Lithgow ("Miss Sloane"; "The Accountant") plays Brad's airy-fairy father Don... the apple has not fallen far from the tree there.
Kurt forces the family to 'fight' Christmas on a neutral turf by renting a palatial AirBnB in a snowy wilderness. Tensions rise between the diverse individuals until a breaking point is inevitably reached.
There are some great farcical sight-gags in this movie. Quite a few of the funniest ones are spoiled by the trailer, but there are still a few standout routines that made me guffaw. A hi-tech shower is predictable but funny; and Brad's use of a snowblower to apocalyptic ends is the funniest scene in the movie.
Wahlberg and Ferrell are a trustworthy double act (after their initial surprise pairing in "The Other Guys"). Gibson and Lithgow also inhabit their roles perfectly, although it was hard of me to relate to either of them. The scene on the airport escalator as they arrive is very well done.
The supporting cast all play their parts well: ER's Linda Cardellini as Brad's wife and Dusty's ex-wife; Brazilian model and actress Alessandra Ambrosio, as Dusty's (almost unbelievably good-looking) new wife Karen; and WWE star John Cena as Karen's ex-husband. (Doesn't ANYONE stay married in the US any more?). The kid stars - Didi Costine, Scarlett Estevez and Owen Vaccaro - are also good, with Estevez being particularly appealing. Watch out for a funny cameo in the final scene as well, which I found very amusing ("You only have one story" ... LoL).
What drowns out the comedy though is the sentimental storyline around a personal tragedy being lived out by one of the family. The angst and nasty back-biting that surrounds this I found neither funny nor pleasant. The story builds to a snow-bound cinema (showing "Missile Tow" starring Liam Neeson... a great "pointless answer" for the BBC's "Pointless" quiz!) and a finale song that is just so over the top that it has both an "awww" factor and is bile-inducing all at the same time. The screenplay is by Sean Anders and John Morris, with Anders also directing.
Will Ferrell films can be like a game of Russian Roulette, and I fully expected this to be truly awful. It wasn't, and as a Christmas comedy it is an OK watch... and thankfully significantly above "Jingle all the Way"!

Wayyyy funnier than expected and better than the first
I was totally entertained by this movie. It had me laughing through most of it. Don't get me wrong it's nothing you haven't seen before but lately I have been sitting through some pretty boring comedies and this one had me Loling out loud!!11one.
There is lots of things wrong with it but I think this one came the closest to reliving National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation...the holiest of Holy movies. This one probably doesn't deserve an 8 but it made me lol out loud so it's getting an 8!!11

Generally inoffensive, but still worse than I could have possibly imagined.
I'll preface this by saying that I haven't seen, nor now have any interest in ever seeing, the first film in this odd and unnecessary choice for a franchise, so the fairly complicated family dynamics on display were somewhat lost on me for a fair while until I'd worked out exactly who was who's daddy, something not quite as easy as you'd think considering that there are seemingly more 'steps' in this family than in the Burj Khalifa itself, but once I'd found my footing - or, rather, simply found out it both didn't really matter and I didn't care enough anymore to worry about it - I could finally sit back and simply not enjoy the debacle that ensued. Between trying to convince us that Mel Gibson is quote 'beautiful', a certain heroic pilot isn't beyond the cameo he curiously makes and generally that every single actor involved isn't much better than this - to the point where they can't have been happy with the work they were producing (unless something went really wrong in the edit), the flimsy flick represents a series of seriously misjudged skits simply screaming "we're trying too hard" while only producing a single 'meh' emoji's worth of a reaction which all amount to an emotional payoff that's technically sound but seriously undercut by its mysteriously musical management and callously cheesy crescendo - an issue actually present throughout the consistently grating and ham-fisted piece. It may be generally inoffensive, but its still actually much worse than I could have possibly imagined. 3/10

Cheap Gags, but Enjoyable None the Less
Daddy's Home 2 is very similar to its predecessor. If you liked the first one, you'll probably like the second. There are a ton of cheap gags and Will Ferrell gets in situations that should have left him hospitalized constantly. The introduction of Mel Gibson and John Lithgow as the grandfathers just takes the opposite dads concept to the extreme as they are even farther out versions of the Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell characters. Most of the jokes weren't worth more than a chuckle, with the exception of an extremely relatable thermostat bit. The ending was stretching the limits of believably, even for a ridiculous comedy, but all in all it was solid ideal entertainment.
Mel Gibson brought the best comedic moments, largely because he character was really playing into the Mel Gibson tough guy persona and it felt more natural than the other characters. Linda Cardellini was able to do more with her character as she was given a couple scenes alongside Alessandra Ambrosio, whose cameo was expanded into a full fledged role. Ambrosio was successfully hidden in her scenes to avoid exposing the fact that she is a model, not an actress. John Cena was also credited as returning in his cameo role as well, but I never saw him, though the other characters acted as though he was there.

Better Than The First One!
Warning: Spoilers
Perhaps I'm in the minority, but I strongly believe that this movie was better than the first in the series. It could be because this was strongly a Christmas film and Christmas films are often my favorite films to watch. It also has a great cast with the addition of the awesome Shakespearean John Lithgow and "bad boy" Mel Gibson. I imagine this movie is the closest thing to an "Elf" sequel that we will ever get. In fact, if Buddy the Elf left his family in New York, changed his name to brad and married the new wife, then this would be the story.
Great family friendly film with lots of slapstick comedy and whole lot of heartfelt holiday moments. 10/10

Better Than First?
I really enjoyed this sequel. I thought the extra cast members were really a good addition, like John Cena and Mel Gibson. It was a great family movie, and very cheerful. Will Ferrell has lots of funny scenes. It almost reminded me of Grown Ups, but a little better.
Recommended!

Great Christmas Movie
A very funny and welcome new Christmas Movie. I really didn't enjoy Daddy's Home 1, and only watched 2 because family wanted to watch it. This was much better...less annoying and much funnier.

Good family comedy Christmas movie...
Warning: Spoilers
This is as enjoyable of a movie as the first one. Mark Wahlberg, Will Ferrell, John Lithgow, Mel Gibson, and John Cena were great in the movie. I love the Christmas atmosphere and the scene at the movie theater at the end is so great for a Christmas movie. Love how the whole family goes to a winter cabin for Christmas. Also as funny as the first movie. Love the movie and try to watch it ever Christmas.

Got more than I expected
The cast is a LOT of fun. I did NOT see Mel Gibson coming...I'm glad I didn't read too deep about this movie before watching it. Surprises like that made this movie what it is.
There are all the elements a good PG-13 family comedy should have. My expectations were to laugh and thats what I got...but they do mix in some of those sappy life lesson things in there...which is OK, some people need to be reminded of what's good and bad...and complicated. That's life in a nutshell.
If you have an open mind, one that has a love for comedy (which requires some uncomfortable things people usually avoid speaking of) this movie is far better than the 6 on IMDB the day I wrote this.

Everything feels forced and nothing is funny
Everything in Daddy's Home 2 is forced. The jokes are uninspired, the characters' actions don't make sense and the story becomes more contrived as the movie goes on-the ending is particularly eye-roll inducing. The original film wasn't that good to begin with, but it's better than this half-baked attempt at a Christmas movie.
