Reception
Robert Pardi from TV Guide gave the film two out of four and stated: "This devil-may-care action picture makes fun of its scenario's staleness while supplying the expected action set pieces; even the tongue-in-cheek performances of the leads don't dissipate the thrills". Pardi concluded about the film: "Directed with considerable gusto, this free-for-all works both on the level of self-parody and as a genuinely exciting Mafia escapade."{{cite web|last1=Pardi|first1=Robert|title=Bounty Hunters 2: Hardball|url=http://www.tvguide.com/movies/bounty-hunters-2-hardball/review/135244/|website=TV Guide}}
