Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Cartoonreviews First off, I have to say, I get very irritated when people bad mouth a movie just because it happens to be a sequel. As in it's doomed to fail from the start. This couldn't be more wrong. Fievel 2 and 3 were better than 1, Terminator 2 was better than the first, and in this case, All Dogs 2 is far superior to All Dogs 1.The first thing I love about this movie is the music. "I will always be with you" And "It's too heavenly" are some of my favorite songs from any musical ever. The songs are there just enough to be a great accompaniment without being too intrusive. And on top of that, they're good.When it comes to Don Bluth films, he always has this incredibly dark, gritty tone for the film, and with ADGTH 1, it really made it unenjoyable. It was dark, depressing, and it wasn't for me. I could see why other people might enjoy it, but I was not on board with the feeling or the style. The sequel has far brighter colors and leaves you feeling with more of a happy feeling, which I enjoy far more than being depressed.I loved the voice cast with them bringing back Dom and introducing Charlie Sheen as Charlie Barkin. I think this casting was great for Charlie. I think the addition of Bebe Neuwirth and Sheena Easton for Annabelle and Sasha were spot on, and I didn't even mind the kid actor as David. I think he was a realistic fun character and I normally don't say that about children characters.People criticize this film for being peppier and losing the "idea" behind the original. In my humble opinion, it was improved with this film. I loved the comedy, the message, the music, and everything about it. It is my favorite sequel ever and in my mind far superior than the original. There are some animation goofs here and there, but it doesn't detract from the overall enjoyment of the film.When it is all said and done, it is in my top five favorite movies. And i've seen a LOT of movies so that's an accomplishment. If you enjoy happy movies that leave you with a good feeling, regardless of whether it's a sequel or not, I would say give it a watch. It deserves a lot more accolades than it gets.9.5/10. Since I can't give it a 1/2, i'll round it up to a 10. It deserves it.
stevetrowbridge98 Why all the negative reviews? People are seriously overreacting and blowing this whole thing out of proportion. Is ADGTH 2 as good as the original, no probably not. But that doesn't mean this movie is bad. (Spoilers) Charlie is in heaven and Itchy ends ing him. Carface is also in heaven. He is acting all nice and innocent but is really plotting to steal the Horn of Gabriel. He steals it and goes back down to earth by using the horn to open the gates. Meanwhile Charlie is bored with heaven while Itchy is ecstatic about it. Charlie and Itchy are sent back to earth to get back the Horn of Gabriel. They get there and Charlie meets Sasha, whom he falls in love with, and David, a magician. I won't go any further than that. The Cons, Burt Reynolds is deeply missed as Charlie and the voice replacement of Carface is also a big loss. Anne Marie is not mentioned, perhaps because of what happened to the voice actress but it still would've been nice if Charlie had mentioned her. Also this seems to take place in the mid-80's-early 90's era but the original was in the 30's, that's a big plot hole for sure and the animation had a few glitches. But if you can get past all that, the movie is good, it was to me, and i'll say again that I don't understand why people are overreacting about this. It doesn't deserve all the bad reviews its gotten. I give it an 8/10.
rickhavoc1 I loved All Dogs go to Heaven so much that I went to see the sequel in the theater, and I can't being more disappointed by a movie. The story stank worse than an over-aged sack of manure. I mean, come on! How could Carface possibly imagine being able to get revenge on an animal so much bigger than him, no matter how angry he was. Plus depicting Satan as a CAT?!?! How cliché can you get? So much for the story. Is it any wonder that Don Bluth, Burt Reynolds, Melba Moore, and Vic Tayback wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole? The animation was absolutely wretched. The colors were all washed out, and I can't count how many times I was able to see through objects that were supposed to be solid. It had to be the worst animation I've ever seen! I usually like animated movies, but not this BOMB!
LaToya Bassett First and perhaps foremost, I would like to remark that this goody-goody sequel really took away from the original ADGTH movie, with all its dark bittersweet sentimentality, its beautiful insights of the Afterlife,and its heavy undertone of the criminal underworld.Also, why must they characterize the cat as a demon? For certain children that come to mind that believe cats are evil, no-good animals out to serve witches and devils, this does not help. To cast the cat as an average villain is one thing. But to cast it as the Devil himself?! I mean, if the plot were turned around, would they cast the dog as the Devil? That point aside, I didn't care for Charlie Sheen as Charlie B. Barkin and Itchie's one liner role really didn't cut up. Annabelle lacks any spunk, as she had in the original. There are certain scenes and songs that touched me. Such as "I Will Always Be With You". And the end scene was sweet. I did approve of the Guardian Angel theme, while I didn't agree that Earth would be better than Heaven. 3 out 10!
