Beethoven's 2nd
Beethoven is back -- and this time, he has a whole brood with him now that he's met his canine match, Missy, and fathered a family. The only problem is that Missy's owner, Regina, wants to sell the puppies and tear the clan apart. It's up to Beethoven and the Newton kids to save the day and keep everyone together.
Critics Sentiment
Beethoven destroys patio deck and saves Ryce from Taylor
Taylor locks Ryce in bedroom and sexually harasses her
The film drops from Beethoven's heroic rescue of Ryce to the disturbing sexual harassment scene, then rebounds when Beethoven saves her
Beethoven's 2nd received mixed reception as a mediocre but watchable sequel that relied heavily on puppy cuteness. While reviewers praised the adorable dogs and some entertaining set pieces like the burger eating contest, they criticized weak villains, unnecessary romantic subplots, and inappropriate content for a family film. The consensus was that it failed to match the charm of the original while still providing enough entertainment value for children and families.
