Bad Santa is one Christmas classic that should have been left well alone.
The intent is there, but Bad Santa 2 is a tired sequel that lacks the first film’s festive freshness.
A photocopy of a photocopy, this could perhaps be the nadir of the wave of decade-too-late comedy sequels. Only Thornton completists, and hopeless nostalgists, need apply.
Once seen, instantly forgotten.
Billy Bob Thornton returns in a belated sequel that wrings occasional snickers from a patchy script.
A true Christmas turkey.
Tired jokes and tasteless routines make for a hugely disappointing sequel.
