Kuzco 2 : King Kronk

Being a huge fan of the original movie, The Emperor's New Groove, I was thrilled to find that a sequel had been made. I bought the movie thinking that, at its worst, it would have some familiar characters and a couple of laugh-out-loud moments. However, I was delighted to find that it was as good as it could be without being the original classic.

For those who weren't fans of the first movie, this may be such a good choice as there are many 'in jokes' and nods to the original. Also the plot is quite complicated for a cartoon, effectively covering three stories in the one film.

However, the music is fantastic, opening with a very original and funky tune 'You Should Be True To Your Groove' and continuing with a fabulous jazz piece sung by the talented Eartha Kitt and a classic track by Earth Wind and Fire.

This is a movie that works on different levels, so that parents will not be bored when watching it with their children. There are a couple of cringe-worthy moments, perhaps aiming for a young teen market but these can be easily overlooked.

Overall a really great movie with some brilliant and original moments.

because i work at a very popular movie rental chain, i was able to see this movie before it comes out on DVD dec. 13th. i tried going into this movie with no expectations, and i must say that i was pleasantly surprised. it'll never live up to the brilliance of the emperor's new groove, but it's still pretty good for a Disney direct-to-DVD release. it referred back to the first movie a lot, and it rehashed some of the old jokes (ala austin powers movies), but it had enough fresh gags to keep me entertained. kronk was good as a main character, and we get into his character a lot, but the character development did get in the way of the humor of kronk from time to time. when it comes down to it, kronk just wasn't as funny as he was in the first movie, but he's still a great character. check it out. you may enjoy it.

I don't know why but I love this and the first. I'm animation fan my whole life from film to detailed figures. I love this animation style. Corny movies but just cool to me. Check it out find your own groove.

7.7/10

Yeah remember when I was talking about Krank in "The emperor's new groove" yeah that's the movie I was waiting for...

When I was a kid I watched it way too many times and totally forgot about it...I thought this movie was a series of mini episodes like those ones on Disney Channel... turns out this was a MOVIE!

Damn what a movie,the plot was simple and pretty much the same as the previous film but still was very good maybe a better one.

The soundtrack was good nothing way too cool just good had fun listening to it and vibed a lot...i mean it's a kid's movie have some fun and chill while watching it.

The characters were hilarious and funny af i literally loved everybody in this movie and had a fun time listening to Kronks flashbacks.

The voice acting even though it was in Greek it was pretty much amazing but i enjoyed and liked "Giannis Stefanopoulos" and the rest of the voice actors for giving this movie a funny to a guy like me.

To close this review,"Kronks new groove" is a movie you can see and enjoy without even watching the first film, iconic every way possible and nostalgic for the fans of it if you are you to this kind watxh this movie it's worth watching it the same thing applies for the first one.

Not really as hilarious as the first movie, but some decent amount of laughs I had with this one. Kronk's New Groove is just one of the more tolerable Disney sequels. On one hand, it would have a couple of segments that while connect to the movie, are generic and scenario elements that get predictable for each one. But on the other hand, it can be a decent followup to its predecessor with nice animation, good humor that's traditional to before, the heart that would affect Kronk's personality. Maybe this may be an okay choice for those that enjoyed The Emperor's New Grove. But at least set your expectations a little low because considering this is a a Disney sequel, it's not as clever as before. This is nowhere near as good as the first film, I will tell you this. But as a straight-to-video Disney sequel, it could've been a lot worse. So I'll give that this one has a fair amount of groove.
