It's been two years since the original, and Annie has a new boyfriend. Jason Patric tries to substitute for Keanu Reeves, but doesn't do as good as Jack Traven. Annie Porter and Alex Shaw go on a cruise, but an ill... Full review

I didn't see Speed the original, but this had little to no plot and the acting was so-so because there was no plot. I couldn't recommend this even to pass an afternoon.... Full review

June 15, 1997 -- "Speed 2: Cruise Control" is one of those fun summer movies that you just want to enjoy without having to worry about deep meanings.
Lots of humor is added to the plot and surprisingly few people are killed for this kind of disaster flick.

any sequel, no matter how thrilling, would be a letdown.....the visuals are merely adequate.....In fact, the only real thrill offered by Speed 2 comes during the bloated movie's final half-hour (as the ship's collision course becomes apparent).....And, once the word gets out about how disappointing this movie is, crowds will dwindle.....Speed 2 is lackluster --.... ...

Speed 2: Cruise Control" is yet another chaotic action picture that makes no sense and is more likely to give the audience headaches than thrills.
In fact, this one is so chaotic that it's hard to believe it was directed by Jan De Bont, even though he is perhaps to blame more than anyone else for the corruption of this genre.

The worst action film I've seen this year.
The type of film that when you see it the first time, you are blown away.
This is mediocre to pedestrian unremarkable end.
This film isn't even a film to bother with on video.
