Business at his newly opened restaurant just isn't as good as Kronk had hoped, and upon receiving a llama-gram stating that his father is currently en route, the stressed chef and his enchanting partner Yzma begin cooking up a scheme that will give the restaurant the distinct smell of success. When the plan backfires and an enormous cheese explosion leaves Kronk and company scrambling to get back on their feet, it's up to his friends to convince him that the only way he'll ever achieve true happiness is by remaining true to his groove no matter how heavy the odds are stacked against him. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    I was no comparison to the original, but it was pretty fun!

    Pitiful attempt at continuing the cutest and one of the best Disney films. If they had just gone with a straightforward, linear plot, things might have worked out alright. But noooo...

    The sequel never lived up to the standard of the first film, but it is ok to watch, like once only. Tried too hard to be funny but utterly failed.

    Not nearly as good as the original. Basically this movie was three lame stories horribly pasted together.
  • November 30, 2008
    Another Disney straight-to-DVD sequel consisting of several loosely connected shorts. *sigh* Disappointment.

    Fun sequel; I liked the theme of discovering joy in who you are, facing responsibility for your actions and not worrying about fulfilling others' unrealistic expectations
  • July 16, 2007
    Not as good as the first, but I still thought it was funny. I mean, who doesn't love to watch people dance while makin' raisin bread?

Great voice talents, but weak storyline and frankly not much groove. Full Review

I always loved the character of Kronk.... However, it may have been a mistake to give him his own movie. Full Review

...this film proves that [Kronk] works best in small doses... Full Review

John J. Puccio, Movie Metropolis

If its characters, music, and action seem to an adult less than inspired, that's the price one pays for watching a straight-to-video sequel. Full Review

if you want to spend more time with these characters, you're probably better off just re-watching the original film. Full Review

It's just too generic, and generic is not what we want from a sequel to a film that managed to escape the Disney mold. Full Review
