"Free Willy 2" is not the kind of film that can teach children about coping with loss or reach them on anything but the most superficial level.

Goes for the heartstrings and, to an extent, hit them hard.

A dreary retread of what wasn't a very good picture in the first place.
August 16, 2017 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review… -
Once free of clunky plot constraints, the continuing family saga is a swimmingly satisfying emotional yarn.

The most fun in Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home is the good old-fashioned, ideologically neutral danger-and-heroism-and-rescue episode that wraps up this particular chapter of victory at sea.

Maybe it takes time to mix the formula, but this is tons better entertainment than the original.

Audience Reviews for Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home

Sep 28, 2011As far as sequels are concerned, Free Willy 2 is as pointless as they come. The film is terrible, considering that the first was decent. The film doesn't do anything new or exciting and the film is pretty pointless. I don't see why the first needed a sequel. In this film you have a pretty bad cast of actors. I really felt like this film could have been something better, but it wasn't. I felt that the story wasn't that great. The cast seemed to try hard to outdo the original, and they failed miserably. I didn't like this film and I was pretty bored with it. The film is simply awful, and fails to capture what made the original a decent viewing. This sequel is one of the worst that you can see and I just didn't think it was necessary to make. The talent involved is just pitiful and Free Willy 2 is yet another bad sequel in a series of bad sequels. I enjoyed the original when I was younger, and I remember this one quite well too, and like I just stated, it failed to entertain me, and they tried too hard to outdo the original. Free Willy 2 is terrible. Simple as that. The film could have been better, and it shows that it could've been better. The film felt rushed, obviously to cash in on the success of the first, and in the end, it failed to deliver anything entertaining or good for that matter. People, who enjoyed the first film, may want to skip this film because there is nothing going for it that makes it a good film. The plot is poorly written, the acting is bad and the direction is sloppy. A very poor attempt at creating a sequel to what many viewers see as a classic.Alex r Super Reviewer
