"This is the kind of movie that Chuck Norris would have made 15 years ago, except there would be two dozen bad guys and plenty more excitement."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Bill Clark

1.5/5
"Just about as bad as they come."  Filmcritic.com  Christopher Null

"Bullock and Patric seem to be extremely good sports, given how little they have to work with (the film is clever, but strangely unengaging)."  Philadelphia City Paper  Cynthia Fuchs

2/10
"This film is less of a sequel and more of a carbon copy."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Dragan Antulov

1.5/4
"Speed 2 can be numbered among the worst second chapters ever made."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

1.5/4
"Bullock, who has a sly and wonderful way of bringing wit and charm to every project she's associated with, is relegated to little more than a bystander."  Q Network Film Desk  James Kendrick

1/4
"Sixty minutes of poorly photographed rescue attempts sum up the substance of the movie."  Palo Alto Weekly  Jeanne Aufmuth

2.5
"Jan deBont could make an ice cream truck tootling down your street look exciting...[but] grab some popcorn and try and invent a drinking game based on the silliness."  Cinerina  Karina Montgomery

2/4
"By the time you get to rescue Annie from the madman one last time, it's time to check out."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

"There went two hours of my life that I shall never see again."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

2/4
"Cruise control indeed, as in slow and phoned-in, coasting by on what is passed off as thrills."  TheMovieReport.com  Michael Dequina

1/5
"Se 'Twister' era um insulto, 'Velocidade Máxima 2' é uma tentativa de homicídio."  Cinema em Cena  Pablo Villaca

C+
"Sandra Bullock is as winning as usual and Willem Dafoe has great fun chewing up the scenery as the villain. Unfortunately, there's not much chemistry between Bullock and Patric, so the love story doesn't work."  Laramie Movie Scope  Robert Roten

"De Bont simply reprises the first film."  Reeling Reviews  Robin Clifford
