  • The Iceman reveal is disputed as a twist and criticized for contradicting his help in the original; the suggestion he became Iceman later is countered.
  • The missing footage might explain the plot but might also make the movie slower. — Van Lathan

  • Reggie shoots a man in the knee immediately after release without apparent consequences. — Bill Simmons
  • The hotel clerk runs into an active gunfight to complain about noise. — Van Lathan
  • Gunfire ignores realistic ammunition limits; modern action’s visible reloading is the contrast.
  • The morgue identification appears to skip hours without a transition; a removed house scene is recalled. — Bill Simmons
  • The misconduct proceeding happens implausibly quickly. — Van Lathan
  • Jack’s reduced racism is debated in relation to sobriety and the original apology; abandoning Reggie complicates his improvement. — Bill Simmons
  • Cherry is mocked as an unlikely villain nickname, before Richard is supplied as his actual name.
