Amazon.co.uk Review

The straight-to-video sequel The Secret of NIMH 2 was a huge letdown after the grandeur of Don Bluth's 1982 adaptation of Robert C O'Brien's book, offering far poorer art and thinner characterisations. The story finds Timmy (voiced by Ralph Macchio), son of the Jonathan Brisby character from The Secret of NIMH, leaving the family farm and heading to Thorn Valley, where the rats of NIMH live. There, Timmy seeks a path in his father's footprints to become a hero, and meets a girl mouse who tells him her parents are among some NIMH mice wrongly presumed dead for years. A rescue ensues, of course, in which Timmy and the refugee rats risk getting caught themselves. At about an hour in length, genuine entertainment is at a premium in this production, making it even harder to ignore point-by-point comparisons between this film and its predecessor--especially when those comparisons, time and again, find the sequel wanting. The very best element here is the vocal and singing performance by Eric Idle as the villain, Martin, who resorts to electric shock to "improve" his intelligence and whose song, "Just Say Yes", is a real highlight. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad, 5 Jan 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Secret of Nimh 2 [VHS] [1998] (VHS Tape)

This film is awful.I loved the book Mrs Frisby And The Rats Of NIMH.When I saw the film (The Secret Of NIMH) I was pleased with it and it was a worthy adaptation.However,this sequel strays from the formula and wanders into cute,Disney-like territory.The producers probably forgot that NIMH is an actual institution and should be sued for the silly way it was portrayed.The voices are awful but don't blame Eric Idle.He portrayed the voice of the evil Martin but he was the only good thing about the film so don't blame him.The art is worth dumping in the bin too.Don't waste your money on this trash.Even children will probably stick their tongues out at it.I'm not surprised that it was a direct-to-video movie.If it was in cinemas it would be booed right out of them.I am giving it 1 star because I can't give it one half.

3.0 out of 5 stars ok so it wasnt as good as the original.but it kept the kids, 17 Jan 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Secret of Nimh 2 [VHS] [1998] (VHS Tape)

ok, everyone knows that sequels are never as good as their predecesors and this movie is no exception.however, it kept the kids quiet for a good hour or so, i have the original as well as the sequel now. But my two children who are quite young found the first quite scary, this one however, with its gentle plot and easy(ish) on the ears songs were comforting to thier ears. the voices of the characters fitted in with the criteria of the movie-NO BRAIN REQUIRED FUN!! Although this didnt live up to the first and wont win any oscars it gave a hard workin mum time to herself. no complaints here.
