Critics Consensus

Although it's too flat and formulaic to measure up against the best family-friendly fare, Planes: Fire and Rescue is a passable diversion for much younger viewers.

Observer (UK)

Like Cars, this is essentially funny-animal animation with chrome and aluminium instead of fur.

It's as if the Mouse House is providing bootlegs of its own material.

This slight but entertaining sequel benefits by tearing up the blueprint director John Lasseter used for both his Pixar racecar operas to become the animated disaster movie that Towering Inferno producer Irvin Allen never made.

The conquering adversity messaging is worthy enough, but the direct-to-DVD story never takes flight.

Rated: 2/5

Amps up both the sincerity and the respect quite a bit and makes you feel like you're smack dab in the midst of its numerous action sequences.

It's actually better than the first one on a technical level. Everything is alright about it but the story is just....out of left field almost. This is like if in Star Wars the next movie was about Luke Skywalker opening up a Diner or something just random. I don't really have much else to say about it. It's pretty basically made as the first one and it really is meant for little kids. But really, kids can do better than this. Skip It.

The first movie is actually my favorite movie ever! If you want to see why, then check my review on it here in Rotten Tomatoes but the sequel on the other hand, it’s just……. Painfully Average. Yeah, this one isn’t really anything special honestly. 😐

To be honest, I could not finish watching the second part of "Planes" because it is the most boring and unspeakably uninteresting spectacle. Even the first part seemed more exciting to me.

I think this movie is far better than it has the right to be. The fire and rescue action scenes (especially the first one set to ACDC's Thunderstruck) are great. I know my expectations were for a kids movie, and a sequel to a quite average kids movie at that, but Planes: Fire and Rescue rises above its predecessor.
