( Showing 1-35 of 110 Tomatometer Reviews, sorted z-a )
4/5  "An enjoyable film for the family, amusing and cute for both adults and kids."
-- Brian Zoromski, IGN FILMFORCE

3/5  "Stuart's poor-me persona needs a whole bunch of Snowball's cynicism to cut through the sugar coating. But once the falcon arrives in the skies above Manhattan, the adventure is on red alert."
-- The Wolf, IOFILM.CO.UK

  "Returning director Rob Minkoff ... and screenwriter Bruce Joel Rubin ... have done a fine job of updating White’s dry wit to a new age."
-- Chuck Wilson, L.A. WEEKLY

2/4  "While I can't say it's on par with the first one, Stuart Little 2 is a light, fun cheese puff of a movie."
-- Staci Layne Wilson, FANTASTICA DAILY

2/4  "So aggressively cheery that Pollyana would reach for a barf bag."
-- Jeffrey Westhoff, NORTHWEST HERALD (CRYSTAL LAKE, IL)

4/5  "Manages to accomplish what few sequels can -- it equals the original and in some ways even betters it."
-- Anika Van Wyk, JAM! MOVIES

  "The wonderful combination of the sweetness and the extraordinary technical accomplishments of the first film are maintained, but its overall impact falls a little flat with a storyline that never quite delivers the original magic."
-- Urban Cinefile Critics, URBAN CINEFILE

B+  "Colorful, energetic and sweetly whimsical...the rare sequel that's better than its predecessor."
-- Frank Swietek, ONE GUY'S OPINION

  "has far more energy, wit and warmth than should be expected from any movie with a "2" at the end of its title."
-- James Sanford, KALAMAZOO GAZETTE

B  "It’s bright, pristine style and bold colors make it as much fun as reading an oversized picture book before bedtime."
-- Audrey Rock-Richardson, TOOELE TRANSCRIPT-BULLETIN (UTAH)

3/4  "You can take the grandkids or the grandparents and never worry about anyone being bored ... audience is a sea of constant smiles and frequent laughter."
-- Steve Rhodes, STEVE RHODES' INTERNET REVIEWS

9/10  "If it's possible for a sequel to outshine the original, then SL2 does just that."
-- Jackie Potts, CITYSEARCH

2.5/4  "This 72-minute film does have some exciting scenes, but it's a tad slow."
-- Sue Pierman, MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL

3.5/5  "An amusing, even joyful second take on E.B. White's beloved children's book."
-- Kim Williamson, BOXOFFICE MAGAZINE

2/4  "I still can't relate to Stuart: He's a mouse, for cryin' out loud, and all he does is milk it with despondent eyes and whine that nobody treats him human enough."
-- Ian Waldron-Mantgani, UK CRITIC

3/5  "Very special effects, brilliantly bold colors and heightened reality can’t hide the giant Achilles’ heel in “Stuart Little 2“: There’s just no story, folks."
-- John Urbancich, SUN NEWSPAPERS OF CLEVELAND

4/4  "Don't wait to see this terrific film with your kids -- if you don’t have kids borrow some."
-- Tony Toscano, TALKING PICTURES

3/10  "For single digits kidlets Stuart Little 2 is still a no brainer. If you're looking to rekindle the magic of the first film, you'll need a stronger stomach than us."
-- Chuck Schwartz, CRANKY CRITIC®

B  "Much of the movie's charm lies in the utter cuteness of Stuart and Margolo. Their computer-animated faces are very expressive."
-- Robert Roten, LARAMIE MOVIE SCOPE

4/5  "Thanks to a small star with big heart, this family film sequel is plenty of fun for all."
-- James Rocchi, NETFLIX

2.5/4  "There is a refreshing absence of cynicism in Stuart Little 2--quite a rarity, even in the family film market. Eventually, it wins you over."
-- Dustin Putman, THEMOVIEBOY.COM

2.5/4  "An inconsequential, barely there bit of piffle."
-- Mary F. Pols, CONTRA COSTA TIMES

3/4  "'A fresh-faced, big-hearted and frequently funny thrill ride for the kiddies, with enough eye candy and cheeky wit to keep parents away from the concession stand.'"
-- Jonathan R. Perry, TYLER MORNING TELEGRAPH (TEXAS)

Hot Pick
3.5/5  "This cuddly sequel to the 1999 hit is a little more visually polished, a little funnier, and a little more madcap."
-- Sean O'Connell, FILMCRITIC.COM

Cream of the Crop
FRESH 89%
Avg. Rating: 6.8/10
  "The color sense of Stuart Little 2 is its most immediate and most obvious pleasure, but it would count for very little if the movie weren't as beautifully shaped and as delicately calibrated in tone as it is."
-- Stephanie Zacharek, SALON.COM

B  "Lovingly photographed in the manner of a Golden Book sprung to life, Stuart Little 2 manages sweetness largely without stickiness."
-- Philip Wuntch, DALLAS MORNING NEWS

A-  "It reminds us that Nathan Lane is the best show stealer in show business."
-- Bruce Westbrook, HOUSTON CHRONICLE

3/5  "More than the last time around, it has elements that might help divert those bigger people who find themselves unavoidably in attendance."
-- Kenneth Turan, LOS ANGELES TIMES

2/4  "Like the hugely successful first film, the sequel provides pleasant, engaging if largely disposable entertainment for the general audience."
-- Susan Stark, DETROIT NEWS

2.5/4  "As immaculate as Stuart Little 2 is, it could be a lot better if it were, well, more adventurous."
-- Gene Seymour, NEWSDAY

3/4  "Significantly better than its 2002 children's-movie competition."
-- Steven Rosen, DENVER POST

  "At 78 minutes it just zings along with vibrance and warmth."
-- Richard Roeper, EBERT & ROEPER

2.5/4  "This follow-up boasts most of the felicities of the original."
-- Carrie Rickey, PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER

2/4  "Vacillating between sappy and snappy, Stuart Little 2 is featherweight family fare, perfectly timed for viewers with short attention spans."
-- Jennie Punter, GLOBE AND MAIL

  "Imaginative and engaging follow-up, which revolves around a decidedly fresh story line that presents its stars with new challenges, obstacles and emotional opportunities."
-- Jean Oppenheimer, NEW TIMES
