Reviews
Jack Sommersby wrote on efilmcritic.com that the film was not recommended; but it is better than the first film and offers some "genuinely moving" scenes. The lexicon of international films judged the film to be a “shamelessly primitive sequel film that lures the audience with false promises”: “Unabashedly” it exploits “the memory of the previous film 9½ weeks (1986)” and offers “ nothing more than a boring stroll through postcard views ”.
Cinema magazine mockingly wondered “how Mickey Rourke shuffled through this stale, monotonous sequel”, which was “just another drama”. The editors suggested “ten weeks imprisonment for all involved”.
TVdirekt scoffed that the film writers would have thought a screenplay superfluous.
