In the sequel to the Netflix romp about a chaotic husband-and-wife detective team, Nick (Adam Sandler) and Audrey (Jennifer Aniston) return for another broadly comic, benignly smutty adventure. Their business problems are putting a strain on the marriage, so the offer of an expenses-paid trip to the private island of their wealthy friend (Adeel Akhtar) seems too good to miss. It’s also too good to be true – there’s a murder and a kidnapping, and, thanks to a missing cheese knife, Nick and Audrey are suspects. This crime caper has a certain frenzied energy, but it’s sloppily plotted, crass and so dumb, you wouldn’t trust it to use cutlery unsupervised.
