Not as good as the first movie. Predictable but fun!

I didn't have high expectations going into this movie but happily it turned out to be a lot better than expected, after about the first 15 minutes.

There are plenty of laughs for little ones and a lot aimed at adults as well but I am not sure about older children and teens. I enjoyed the silliness as well as the jokes as the slap stick worked well. It also rattles along at a good pace as well with little time for anyone to get bored.

The film doesn't pretend to be anything but what it is, harmless family fun. There are no moral overtones and it has the lightest of stories but that shouldn't deter anyone.

Better than the first movie and really funny with also great animation and cast.

Go see it
