 | I don't think they could have topped the first Stuart Little even if they tried their hardest, but this sequel is almost just as good. Michael J. Fox is back as the voice of Stuart and Nathan Lane is back too as the voice of Snowbell. In this one Stuart is afraid that he is too small to have any friends and even thinks that he is too small to acomplish anything. But he just has to remember what Mr. Little said, "Every cloud has a silver lining." And then one day a bird named Margalo falls into his car while running away from a falcon. He takes Margalo home and they get to know each other and become good friends, but Margalo is not who Stuart thinks she is. Stuart wakes up one morning to find that Margalo is missing, so he and Snowbell set off on a dangerous journey to find her.
I wish that Monte would have been in this movie more, he had a pretty big part in the first one, and Snowbell is way too wimpy in this one. But other than that, Stuart Little 2 is a great movie that teaches the important values of friendship and honesty.

 | I found Stuart's attraction to Margo to be very unrealistic, for what mouse would fall in love with an animal who could turn on him at any time? Sure, Margo was a pretty little bird, with a sweet voice and cute ways of doing things, but I just thought the whole "love" subject to be farfetched. I also found Margo caring for Stuart, but being forced to be against him by an "evil" hawk, falcon, or whatever it was, I can't remember, to be an over-used subject, although entertaining. All in all, I would say that this movie was good, but not as good as the first. |

 | How can it be? "Stuart Little 2" is even better than the first movie. Stuart (gently voiced by Michael J. Fox) is feeling a little, well, small, and the over-protectiveness of his mother (Geena Davis) does nothing to boost his self-esteem. His brother George has become the hero of the soccer team, however unwittingly, and is breaking away from Stuart to be with his own friends. When Stuart rescues a charming canary named Margalo (voiced by Melanie Griffith) from a hawk, he swells with his new-found sense of heroism and develops a crush on his new friend. But things aren't what they seem. Margalo disappears, and Stuart fears the worst and sets out to rescue her again, this time enlisting the aid of family cat Snowbell (voiced by Nathan Lane.)
The comic scenes are hilarious and always clever, and the emotional ones are touching without going overboard. Stuart matures from a disheartened mouse smothered by motherly love to a courageous adventurer who wants nothing more than to do the right thing. The cinematic palette is ingenious, with vibrant colors reminiscent of a picture book. The true wonder of this film is Stuart himself, am adorable CGI with detailed fur and a face that expresses a wide range of emotions, making him seem lovably real.
This film is ideal for family entertainment, as adults will be charmed as much as the kids. Although Stuart faces danger, there's nothing here that will terrorize little ones, and they'll get a kick out of scenes such as Stuart's uncontrolled plane ride and his being lowered by a string down the drain. Buy this film instead of renting, as it's worth seeing more than once - and the kids will insist upon it. |

 | I can put up with the ages old wisdom of scaring the crap out of kids about the big scary world and the nasty people who live in it, and so what if the falcon is the bad guy and the rodent is the good guy so long as there are no BB guns under the tree, but lets have some fun! This is a kids movie. Stuart is sort of likeable and Snowball the cat has some good lines, but I only watch this sort of thing because I am sure I will feel good at the end and I ended up thinking this movie would make kids not want to go outside. Happy I watched it first.
Stuart little is a poor stepchild in a genre filled with excellent heartwarming films.(Aladdin, Lion King, Toy Story, Finding Nemo). |
