    A wonderful dark childrens fairy tale.

    This was obviously a huge art direction influence on the Harry Potter films.

    Go ahead and laugh but I would rank this babe with some of the best films in history. The first one was very good but this is something else its much much more than a simple kids story and yet its the perfect kids sory! everything here works to a perfect level of pure bliss.













    It's not just a grat family film. it's an absolute masterpiece of filmaking. there is so much heart and bliss and intellicence on it. I could see it over and over.

    This movie's okey. But it can no longer evoke the "magic" that the first Babe movie had already effectively laid claim to.

    Dark & surreal. From the director of The Road Warrior, and where else does Steven Wright do the voice of a chimp? Seriouly, lose your assumption this is a cute kids movie and check it out for its dystopian cityscape.

    Good film. Babe is so cute, I just love piggies, especially Babe. This is a sequel, right ?? Well, it's just as good as the original. Good family film also.

    Slightly muddled though it is, this movie succeeds at every strange and quirky objective it has: E.B. White-style kids fantasy, slapstick comedy, twisted Terry Gilliam-esque caper, even old-fashioned morality tale.

    The title is something I'd made fun of for years. Only to watch, on yet another recommendation, and find it something other than the "yet another needless sequel + braindead kid movie" I'd assumed it. Instead it's an often somewhat dark, beautifully surreal, and even occasionally orwellian take on modern society. A brilliant movie, made even more so by the fact that this somehow was snuck under the radar into theaters.

    Mediocre follow-up to successful kids' film 'Babe' is every bit as bad as its predecessor, and even worse. The kids might not find this one too good, as it is much darker and more frightening. But then again, adults won't find this one too good either. We once again follow Babe "the Gallant Pig" (this time voiced by Daily) who moves to the city with Mrs. Hoggett (Szubanski) as they need to raise funds for the farm after Farmer Hoggett (Cromwell) is injured and can no longer work. We follow Babe as he has his own adventure when his fellow animals friends are rounded up by the police and Babe wants to save them. Painfully clichéd, and keeps trying to make it kid-friendly despite its dark undertone. Special effects are the only redeeming feature. Heck, even the pig isn't that lovable anymore. It's so sad how badly kid movies are sinking these days.

    This movie is good. The sadest part is when the dog in the wheelchair almost dies and his heaven is a field where he can run with his own legs. :(

    It has all the charm of the first one without its warmth and power. It feels forced this time, but it's still lovely.

    Better and darker than the first, full cavity search on Mrs. Farmer Hoggit and some really messed up stuff with monkeys.

    Go ahead and laugh, but this is a great movie. The production design is amazing, and for once talking animals don't look creepy.

    The ONLY good things about this movie is that it is the sequel to "Babe." This movie stinks and should never have been made.

    Parente thought this movie was too violent, but the first was really boring. Maybe it was spiced up a bit too much.

    It's Babe, so you know it will be cute. No more farm for this little guy. He's into the city with the Farmer's wife. He meets up with new characters (most memorably the chimps) and is supported by the memorable animals from the first. Falls short of the original, but a cute follow-up.

    The sequel to Babe does not disappoint. Babe is still adorable and there are even more characters to fall in love with. It is very beautiful visually. My personal favourite scene is when Babe is chased around the gorgeous city by a ferocious dog who Babe then rescues from drowning. Lovely.

    Charmless sequel which is sllightly darker but mainly a bore. It just doesn't feel like Babe, which is interesting but hurts the film a lot.

    I think they should have not created this movie. Should have stuck with the original. This movie was too long and did not keep me interested.

    A slightly disappointing follow-up to Babe that still has the charm that made the first movie so lovable.

    Actually liked this film.
    Not as good as the first Babe of course but i still thought it was sweet, if weird. Really liked magda szubanski (thought she was great in the first) and Babe is as cute as ever.

    liked the monkeys too..
