‘The Bad Guys 2' is an antic crime caper with a side of moral complexity
If the animated comedy 'The Bad Guys' was a heist film with training wheels for a demographic still unjaded by the twists and turns of the formulaic crime genre — call it 'Oceans 11 and Under' — then DreamWorks Animation's fizzy, zippy new sequel lifts the brackets another inch or so off the ground. 'The Bad Guys 2' isn't any more grown up than the 2022 original. The title characters, a crew of talking-animal thieves struggling to go legit, still include a fish, voiced by Anthony Ramos, who is notable for his near-toxic propensity to fart when nervous.
