Just what I expected
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Best movie ever!
Max, the saviour of the White House, manages with ease to entertain us all. I personally love this movie. It fills you with warm feelings. It's enjoyable and fun to watch. Perfect for an evening spent with your dear ones.
Max 2 Whitehouse Hero is a fun little movie that deserves a watch, the acting, directing and music is top notch in this little film. I also loved the cinematography and the way the director chose his shots. I enjoyed this movie and I'm sure you will too, give Max 2 a watch and if you think that it's a sequel to the original Max it's not, it's a completely new cast and dog. I did happen to like the original better, but this is good too on its own.
I am basing my review on what my 3 boys ages, 10, 11 and 13 said about the movie. They enjoyed it (they also saw Max). I didn't even realize it was a sequel (which based on the trivia section, it's not really a sequel). While they were watching it in the car, I heard lots of laughter (good sign). The best recommendation for this movie is that they immediately asked me after it was finished "Can you get Max 3 if it exists?" They usually have good tastes when it comes to movies. But to give you an idea where their tastes are, they loved Princess Bride, Hero Factory and Mr. Bean. They were not impressed with the BFG, Where the Wild Things Are or Field of Dreams (they don't play baseball).
Max becomes the new secret service dog when Charlie has puppies. Max becomes attached to TJ (Zane Austin), the 12 year friendless first son. When Russian President Vladimir Bragov and 12 year old daughter Alexandra (Francesca Capaldi) come visit the youngsters develop chemistry as things happen and only Max can save America...filmed in Canada.I hope Zane Austin studies real hard in school, because I doubt he will have an acting career as an adult. The lone joke that I like was the name "Bragov" as a slur at Putin. The WH in the film doesn't spoof any former WH. There was a school scene that looked like it was lifted from an old SNL sketch where agents help the first daughter on an exam. Unlike many kid's movies, there was really nothing in this film for an adult to enjoy. Makes fun of the Iowa State Fair butter sculptures. BTW this is a different dog and is not really connected to the first film.
