Critic Reviews

Bill Chambers, Film Freak Central
...Stupid and irreverent in a useless way, and a bunch of crappy songs don't help.
Rob Humanick, Slant Magazine
It sounds good despite not being worth listening to.
Rob Humanick, Slant Magazine
It's not hard to see this 2006 midquel as a betrayal of everything the 1981 original stood for.
Peter Canavese, Groucho Reviews
Outside of profits, it seems pointless to impose this story onto established characters. [Blu-ray]
Nancy Davis Kho, Common Sense Media
Milder than the original and full of country music charm.
James Plath, Reel.com
Small children and country fans may like The Fox and the Hound 2, but that's about all.
Kevin Carr, 7M Pictures
The Fox and the Hound 2 is never going to live down as a classic, but it isn't terrible. It falls somewhere in the middle of the Disney DVD sequel spectrum.
Pablo Villaca, Cinema em Cena
Ainda que tecnicamente bem realizada e beneficiada pelo charme dos dois personagens-título, esta é uma continuação desnecessária que abandona as mensagens do original e investe numa historinha boba que renda ao estúdio um dinheiro fácil.
David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
...wears out its welcome almost immediately...
John J. Puccio, Movie Metropolis
...the only excitement it engenders is of the chasing and frolicking kind. Not that that's bad, if you're five or six years old.
John J. Puccio, Movie Metropolis
Like most sequels, it's a pale imitation of the original.

not a bad sequel. Its a modern Lion King 2. You wouldn't want to listen to the soundtrack but when you do you'll like it.

Not as good as the classic, but not terrible.

I think this was far better than the first one. Though they didn't keep the story same. They should have made this the first one. The story doesn't match with that at all. I was expecting to see what happens after that but was greatly disappointed.

It's an okay attempt at cashing in on the classic original. It is however quite sad to see characters treated in such a way. Every few minutes the film is interrupted by a godawful sing song. Animations alright but this is a film where you might as well watch the original. It… More
It's an okay attempt at cashing in on the classic original. It is however quite sad to see characters treated in such a way. Every few minutes the film is interrupted by a godawful sing song. Animations alright but this is a film where you might as well watch the original. It adds nothing.
