Charlie 2

When the Don Bluth animated classic, "All Dogs Go To Heaven", was released, it did an okay job at the box-office and became a classic.

There has been some sequel's to Don Bluth's movies and most of them were terrible (Secret Of Nimh 2 for Example). But in 1996, MGM studios released a sequel to the original called, "All Dogs Go To Heaven 2". It did a bad job at the Box-Office and got a lot of negative review's from critics and fans of the original. But for me, I thought it was a decent sequel.

The movie had some good animation even though it wasn't as good as the first one, it had some nice voice acting from Charlie Sheen, Sheena Easton, and it had Dom DeLuise returning as his character from the first one. The song's were also not that bad, even though I didn't care for, "Count Me Out" and "On Easy Street".

Beside's the fact that I didn't like the song's, "Count Me Out" and "On Easy Street", I also thought the villain, Red, was weak and the story wasn't that good. The story was okay, but I wish it had Charlie and Itchy seeing Anne-Marie again.

"All Dogs Go To Heaven", is not a bad sequel but it's not as great as the original. If you're a fan of the original, then this film is not for you. If you're someone looking for a good animated film for your kids to watch, I recommend renting the original and this one.

This sequel is not as good as its predecessor; however, it is still a good animated movie with good songs.

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!

A lot of kids I know liked the original "Dogs" movie.

They did NOT like this sequel.

I've seen both, and I don't have the advantage of youth, but....

I kinda liked it.

"Dogs 2" doesn't have the same setting as the original, and Sheen is a far cry from Reynolds as Charlie B. Barkin. But the songs are catchy, the animation is bright and Itchy was as bright as he ever was (DeLuise's voice was a welcome sound).

And the romance between Charlie and Sasha (Easton) was cute.

And this still didn't do very well. I guess the world just wasn't ready to see Burt vocally replaced so soon.

Six stars. Go buy it, and put it on Carface's tab.

In All Dogs Go to Heaven and All Dogs Go to Heaven 2 the music was great. It made the movie emotional, also it reminds me that good will always prevail against evil.

All Dogs Go to Heaven 1 and 2 made the characters funny, enjoyable except for the Villains including Red and Carface.
