The four leads are all capable stewards of their characters, each with their own sunniness and charm. Full Review |

|
|
A satisfying sequel involves us in the ups and downs of four young women as they try to find themselves Full Review |

|
7/10 |
Very much a loyal sequel to its predecessor, essentially showing that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Full Review |
||
|
|
The emotionally fragile foursome try out higher education for size, along with those transient pants. Sex And The UniverCity Meets My Big Fat Greek Shotgun Wedding. Full Review |

 5/10 |
Traveling Pants 2 offers more of the same and, I'm afraid, more of the same and more of the same. Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
Most sequels are worse than the originals. A few are better. Here's one that is exactly as good as the one that inspired it, and that's enough for me. Full Review |

2.5/4 |
These Pants are torn and frayed. Full Review |

|
2.5/4 |
This movie is definitely not as good as the first as it seemed to lack showing the bonding moments that made these girls true friends. Full Review |

I imagine if I were a woman, this movie would receive a very favorable review. However, I'm just a fat guy from Ohio. Full Review |

|
You believe these four are friends now and will probably be friends when they’re little old ladies. Full Review |

|
2.5/4 |
Teenage girls (and women getting in touch with their inner teenager) will have a fine time... Full Review |

It's a film that probably will please its targeted viewer more than it did me. Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
Packed with emotions and the angst of growing up, "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" fits an older audience than the first movie. Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
By ending it at number two, the filmmakers have insured that this series won't be subject to the laws of most franchises and grow shoddier as it creaks along. Full Review |
||
|
|
America Ferrera projects such star power here that I felt cheated when the camera moved to other characters. The rest of the film seemed to drag for me. Full Review |
||
|
B |
It's a big story, one filled with enough life lessons and tears to come apart at the seams, but the good news is that it doesn't. Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
There's sex and the city (New York). But the most enjoyable girls-night-out movie of the summer deals with young, fledgling love. Full Review |
||
|
3/5 |
There's scant sisterhood or pants, but these chicas do travel. Full Review |
||
|
C |
It doesn't measure up to The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Which is sort of like saying Rocky V wasn't as good as Rocky IV. Sort of. Full Review |
