It May Be Better Then the First Movie But It's Still Not That Good..
18 November 2017
I know I'm a little late to this but why did the Nut Job need a sequel?, It's just pointless unless they are thinking of continuing the plot from the first movie then It that's okay, buuuuut nope they just have to go with save their home from an evil greedy mayor...

Okay let me just start off by saying that I wasn't looking forward to this movie, because I hated the first movie so much that's It one of the worst animated films I have ever seen, so I was ready to slam the sequel!.

BUT! for some reason It wasn't as bad as the first movie, the filmmakers improved the mistakes from the first movie, like removing Grayson (Voiced by Brendan Frasier), making the characters less hateful and more likable, but It's still not that good..

First off the plot, It's just your average plot with a group of animals have to save their Park after the Nut Shop explodes from the evil Mayor Muldoon (Voiced by Bobby Moynihan) who wants to replace with a amusement park, then there's a subplot that evolves precious (Voiced by Maya Rudolph) getting captured by the Mayor's daughter and meets another dog Frankie (Voiced by Bobby Cannavale) who he falls In love with, It just goes by the numbers that It become so bland and so predicable, I never really cared all that much about what going on because I knew what was going to happen, not the mention the movie wasn't all that funny but the climax was a little interesting and fun, but that's not saying much.

The animation has improved from the last movie seeing that was one of the few things I liked about the first movie, It does has some good character animation, visually looks colorful, It has energy and It's quite smooth, so I do like the animation in this movie but at the same time It's rather average looking, there's nothing new to It, but It's good at least.

The characters are more likable then the first movie, especially Surly who I do like but he's now just a wise cracker that makes jokes which some can go on longer then It should of, Andie Is okay unlike the first movie where I liked her the most, Buddy Is still good but only one problem Is why doesn't he speak?, near the firs Movie he spoke only one line and now he says nothing?, Is that all he says?, I will never know, the other characters are basically just themselves and don't do much, the new characters are basically the same except for Mr. Feng (Voiced by Jackie Chan) and the Mayor who actually are somewhat amusing and sometimes funny, but that's 'bout it.

So that's my review of the Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature, It's just meh..., predictable plot, average but good animation and just okay characters, It's better then the first movie but that's not saying much, children will like It and grown ups will think It's fine, but It's not that good.

I'll give the Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature a 4/10.
