    Watchable first sequel to the surprise hit stars Charles Grodin and Bonnie Hunt as the reprising Newton family, whose slobbering Saint Bernard--Beethoven--gets himself a female doggie to make love with and produce tiny little doggies with. Problem: Two evil dognappers are chasing...( read more) after the puppies.

    Why do they want them? Well, why did Cruella Devil want puppies? Because they're villains.

    A very poor movie, but compared to "Beethoven's 3rd, 4th" and "5th" this looks like a masterpiece.

    2.5/5 stars -- mediocre but watchable sequel.

    Sequel to Beethoven, Mrs Beethoven has puppies in this one.
  • August 20, 2007
    A few flaws but otherwise enjoyable movie, may be boring moments but only fleeting ones.

The jokes are alternately amusing, silly and vulgar, and there are also a couple of set-pieces calculated to get big laughs, as when Beethoven pulls down a beach house balcony.

    Habitual sequel that's not nearly as good as the first.
  • September 29, 2009
    Actually as good as the original as they have kept the charming touch.
  • September 27, 2009
    Very bad to wacth.
    Nothing to do with the first Beethiven.

    Beethoven the St. Bernard dog becomes a father, but his girlfriend Missy is dog-napped, and his puppies are in danger of the same fate.
