Empire
An entirely charming extension of the most unlikely franchise, gently handling big themes and dissolving cynicism with laughter. Maggie Smith is superb.

The senior set deserves a few crumpets with their tea, and Part Two, which takes up where the original left off, aims to satisfy.

It’s not so common to find an ensemble of this caliber so enthusiastic to work together, and that chemistry comes across.

Village Voice
In the end, listing this sequel’s flaws and charms is a loser’s game, and I throw up my hands: I just had fun, maybe mostly because watching these actors brings me so much joy. There’s nothing second best about that, or about them.

Slant Magazine
Like its predecessor, the film is a charming example of what great actors can do with mediocre material.
