Stuart Little 2 is that rarest of movie breeds, a sequel that surpasses its charming, popular predecessor to achieve near-classic status. Mr. & Mrs. Little (Hugh Laurie, Geena Davis) are portrayed with good-natured, storybook purity, and the rest of the movie follows suit, beginning when their lonely mouse "son" Stuart (perfectly voiced by Michael J. Fox) befriends an orphaned canary (Melanie Griffith), who is reluctantly stealing from the Littles for the villainous Falcon (James Woods). The con game turns into a search-and-rescue thriller, with family cat Snowbell (Nathan Lane) quipping like a borscht-belt comedian, but the real fun of Stuart Little 2 comes from Bruce Joel Rubin's hilarious, marvelously inventive screenplay and returning director Rob Minkoff's visually dazzling combination of live action and lavish computer animation. Matching the Babe movies as a wondrous marvel of family entertainment, Stuart Little 2 is an all-ages romp that's smart, sweet, and completely irresistible. --Jeff Shannon

From The New Yorker
Without sacrificing any of the magical allure of the 1999 original, this sequel chronicles the further adventures of an enterprising mouse (voice by Michael J. Fox) and his adopted human family (played by Geena Davis, Hugh Laurie, and Jonathan Lipnicki). The story here is more in keeping with E. B. White's cheeky children's classic. Stuart's dilemma-being scammed by a pretty bird (Melanie Griffith) and her falcon partner (James Woods) for his family's valuables-lets the movie explore themes of loneliness and trust playfully. The director Rob Minkoff paints an idealized vision of New York City, a land of doormen and afternoon tea. His movie feels like it's spun from sugar. -Bruce Diones

Customer Reviews

Totally terrific
In this day and age, it is very hard to find family films that are all joy and no terror. This is one of the rare additions to that genre. It's every bit as good, and maybe even better than the first Stuart Little film.

Everything about the film is a delight, including the embellishments to the original E.B. White novel, Stuart Little. In the book, Stuart's mother drops her engagement ring down the drain, and her mouse-sized, mouse of a son drops down after it. In this film, the ring is lost in quite another way. Stuart dresses up in foul weather gear for a jaunt in last week's meat loaf and comes up short.

The film emphasizes the importance of families, no matter how they are made, the enduring value of friendships, through thick and thin, and the power of positive thinking.

Sappy? You bet. And we all loved every minute of it.

--Alyssa A. Lappen

fun movie for your family
Stuart has became a full member of the Little family. Stuart goes with George (Jonathan Lipnicki) to the school with his human brother and plays soccer. Only, once outside of the family, Stuart still finds no friends. Lady bird Margalo bursts into his life, and they quickly become friends. Still, apparently Margalo is not as happy with the new friendship as is Stuart. This is how the movie starts.

"Stuart Little 2" succeeds where many sequelae fail: it presents a perfectly independent story. The problems from the first movie are forgotten.

Now Stuart has new problems. In search of true friendship, he entangles himself into a turbulent adventure. The human characters Geena Davis and children, including Jonathan Lipnicki, move simultaneously into the background. Sparkling animation and exciting action again delight, as tom-cat Snowball with his witty brisk sayings angles for best supporting character.

A fun movie for the whole family.

Stuart Little 2 proves to be fun for the whole family
Yes, Stuart Little is back again, offering some more great adventures of him trying to find the silver lining of things. With a new baby sister and George hanging around with a new friend Stuart finds himself lonely and looking for a new friend. On his way home from school a new friend literally falls into his red convertible and causes Stuart happiness and heartache all at the same time.
Kids will enjoy the new adventures of the little white mouse who nobody seems to notice that he isn't human. A fun filled event for the whole family. It's always interesting seeing animals talk in a movie.
Although this movie is "mouse-tastic" it is a little far fetched - but who would have thought otherwise. Everyone knows a mouse, cat, and birds can't talk or get involved in human activities, but that's the fun in the movie. Suspension of disbelief!! Stuart Little 2 is a definate must see, so go to the movies and enjoy!
