The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature received generally negative reviews from critics and was a box office disappointment, failing to replicate the modest success of its predecessor. Audiences found the animation and characters uninspired, with many critics citing a weak plot and lack of humor as major drawbacks.

• The animation is slightly improved from the first film, but the story and humor remain weak.
• Lacks the charm and wit to entertain both children and adults.
• A predictable and uninspired sequel that offers little new to the franchise.

Google audience: Google users expressed disappointment with the sequel, with many finding it derivative of the first film and lacking originality. While some younger viewers might enjoy the slapstick humor, most found the plot unengaging and the characters underdeveloped.

This film was originally intended to be released in August 2017, but its release date was pushed back to October 2017.
