Open Season 2 (2009)

A lot of fun.

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This is by FAR the worst animation movie ever created by man. its also a horrible sequel to an OK movie. i think it is a Wayan brothers movie but with animation. all the stupid jokes about food, farts, sex, homosexuality and other mind numbingly stupid stuff. in fact you can see how bad this movie by watching just the first 5 min. this is the worst way you wan spend your time either if you are a child or an adult. technically, this movie doesn't have anything to keep you watching it till the end, you do not know exactly what you are supposed to do, who should you like and how you want this movie to end. and these are the basics for any animation movie that is aimed at children, youngsters and animation loving adults.

The movie is very funny, and the dog, Mr. Winnie... Oh my God, he's so cute. It's a perfect movie for viewers under 10 and a good movie all round. The story isn't that interesting (in fact kind of boring) but the individual characters are what this movie is all about. I didn't see the "Open Season 1" but I'm sure I'll rent the DVD soon. I just love Mr Winnie :). All and all I give it an 8 for a kind of boring story-line but funny characters, and if I could I'd give Winnie an Oscar or at least a Scooby Snack or something... If you like Wall-E, Madagascar or Ice Age, though bot quite as good, I'm sure you're gonna like this one also.

The sequel starts where Open Season stops. D'uh, this is a sequel after all. Elliot is head over heel for Giselle, so he plans to get married with her.However, nervous hits him in the stomach, and suddenly he got reservations about the whole idea. He just lost his left antler and took it as a sign that maybe this whole marriage thingy ain't gonna work. He was having doubts about the marriage and maybe him losing an antler is a sign by the Almighty God that it is a bad idea to marry Giselle.So like what most men will do, he didn't discuss it with his partner and friends, and decides to cook up some tall story to pull out from marrying Giselle.He got his notion when he saw his friend, Mr.Weenie being 'kidnapped' and 'tortured' by a middle-aged lady in a posh clothing.So he told it to his friends and persuaded them to help him save Mr.Weenie from the clutches of the lady.So they went on a mission to save their friend. They met up with pompous, pampered well-groomed pets and feelings of hatred quickly ensued.The house pets don't like them because they thought that Elliot's bunch of friends were rude and uncouth. Likewise, Elliot thought that the house pets were cowards and a bunch of pompous animals.So they fought, and soon enough, they began to understand about each other. And from being enemies, they began to be friends.So finally, good friends they become. They stopped fighting and started shaking hands. And the misunderstanding about the kidnapping cleared.And Giselle found out the real reason behind the whole 'let us help Mr.Weenie' that Elliot cooked up. She was furious but because they were in love, she forgave him.A good watch for the whole family. Not as good as the first one, but still good. What I like most about it is that it does not have vulgar and sexual dialogues. I saw Shrek and there were many dialogues that made me embarrassed when my nieces and nephews asked me what they were about.Too bad this film was screened at the same time as Wall-E, because being a sequel, and against a more hyped up film, this film lost the fight for ticket sales.

I came home from work and when I got home I discovered my brother had rented WALL-E and open season 2 and of course decided to watch open season 2 first, and not being familiar with the first one I pretty much enjoyed this film, it had a lot of witty dialog that I actually caught myself laughing out loud, and I found it refreshing to be able to laugh at something that didn't have an over abundance of toilet jokes.Open season 2 in my mind even though its a kids movie, was definitely a lot of fun, and if asked what would I literally recommend for ideal family viewing? this film would always spring to mind. Of course WALL-E was also very good and funny, only it had fewer lines but also very good family entertainment.
