Le retour de papa 2

Contexte de temps des Fêtes oblige, cette suite d'un succès de 2015 couche ses bonnes intentions et résolutions sur le même lit d'humour vulgaire et ajoute paresseusement un nouveau tandem dépareillé à sa formule déjà débilitante. 

And while you're at it, why not play the entire thing a second time during the credits?

In the end, Daddy's Home 2 is an odd duck.

“You’ll laugh,” a friendly publicist assured me on my way into the theater, and I did.

As wimpy vs. macho rival dads, Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg team with Mel Gibson and John Lithgow in a rote sequel that taps the culture wars.

This is a toxic, not at all benign film made for the enjoyment of everyone still oblivious to the fact that this kind of worldview is crashing down in flames even as we speak.

If you see one slapstick dysfunctional-family Christmas movie, go with Bad Moms.
