This was the next movie after A Stork's Journey, which wasn't very good to begin with. Richard, a sparrow with an identity crisis, who believes he is a stork. Yeah... really. He is probably the most annoying, ungrateful character in an animation film. But let's not forget the parakeet that is coming out, and sings the disco song REPEATEDLY to make sure you know. Because what's a children's movie without a queen in it? So this one finds them in some sandy African country and Richard has to pass a test to prove he is ready to lead the flock, but he does an extremely dangerous stunt, rising the life of his adopted brother. Yet he thinks he should have won. It gets worse from there. The parakeet becomes a hiphop singer? The owl with the imaginary friend loses the friend in a mirror controlled by an evil peacock. The only time I actually laughed or responded at all was the part with the bus. It was horrible, and I can't believe I laughed, but it literally came out of nowhere! I was just stunned, really. So that's the top bit, the bus. If you are forced to watch this, and I have the utmost sympathy for you if you should, you will see what I mean. The bus! Haha.

"Richard the Stork 2" soars above expectations with its heartfelt message that resonates deeply with both kids and adults. This animated gem reminds us that the world isn't just about material possessions; it's about the awe-inspiring places worth visiting.

With stunning animation and a touching narrative, it encourages us to cherish the real gems of the world - the experiences that enrich our lives. An enchanting and thought-provoking cinematic journey for all ages. Make sure to watch and enjoy this piece of art.
