Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2 is all about the power of love and family--and talking Chihuahuas, of course. In this sequel to Beverly Hills Chihuahua, Chloe and Papi have just been married in grand style, and they close their celebration by wishing upon a falling star. Four months later, the two are happily adjusting to their new roles as proud parents--something that's not such an easy task for Papi, who often seems to act more like a sixth puppy than a father, and whose stories of famous historical dogs only seem to get his overexuberant puppies into trouble. Papi's owner Sam has been left in charge of all the dogs, while his girlfriend Rachel and her Aunt Viv travel to the rainforest to do some important research. It looks like life for the new canine family will be all fancy dog parks and cute little doggie outfits until Sam discovers that his parents are facing foreclosure on their home. Sam and his father head to the bank to see what can be done, while Papi's brother Pedro joins forces with Sam, Papi, his pups, and the newly arrived Delgado (who's just shown up on his own important mission) to formulate their own plan to help Sam's parents. One dog show and one bank robbery later, it looks like these financially turbulent times will claim not only Sam's childhood home, but also his relationship with Rachel. In the end, both dogs and humans learn some important lessons about making tough choices, the importance of family and love, and the power of collaboration. Cute talking dogs are always a winner with young viewers and adults will find the film easy enough to sit through, if not particularly compelling. George Lopez returns as Papi, but virtually all the other roles have been recast from the first film: Odette Yustman takes over as Chloe, while Rachel is played by Erin Cahill and Aunt Viv by Susan Blakely. Other popular Disney talents involved in the production include Emily Osment, Madison Pettis, Phill Lewis, Zachary Gordon, and Brian Stepanek. (Ages 6 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

3.0 out of 5 stars Cute movie, but not as good as the first one February 1, 2011

By Francie OP

Format:DVD

Chloe and Papi get married and have a litter of puppies. The dogs enter a dog show to try to win money to save a house from foreclosure, and then solve a bank robbery. Delgado, the German Shephard, makes an appearance.
Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2 is cute, but the plot is not nearly as good as Beverly Hills Chihuahua. Also, #2 would have been better if the original actors were in this movie too.
Overall, cute, but not great. Beverly Hills Chihuahua was much better. You should rent it before you buy it. Even my kids didn't want me to buy it, after watching it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Direct to DVD Chihuahua 2...Bad Doggie! February 1, 2011

By Stephen P. Lopez

Format:DVD

This one is 'For the Dogs' folks. It's a Disney 'Direct to DVD' attempt to cash in on it's successful 'Beverly Hills Chihuahua'. Didn't Disney announce that they wouldn't do 'Direct to DVD' anymore...you know, quality, not quantity? Think 'Mulan 2' and 'Stitch: The Movie'. Get the (insert gagging sounds here) picture? Only George Lopez returns as the voice of 'Papi', probably because of a contractual agreement? I hope he didn't need the cash that bad. Anyways, if you must see this franchise killer, rent it, don't buy it. I wish I would have. I've already tried hitting the DVD with a rolled up newspaper, and that didn't help it any. Now I'll probably have to pawn this 'Dog' off on my in-laws as a birthday or Christmas gift.

3.0 out of 5 stars if you enjoyed the first installment you'll probably enjoy Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2 February 6, 2011

By C.J. Darlington

Format:DVD

If you saw the first Beverly Hills Chihuahua movie, you'll have a good idea what to expect in this straight to DVD sequel. Cute dogs, silly antics, an outrageous plot, and did we mention cute dogs? Lead pooches Papi and Chloe have just gotten married and soon have a brood of five little pups to keep them on their toenails. Dad Papi (voiced perfectly once again by George Lopez) takes it all in stride and every night, with the best of intentions, tells his little ones stories of the Chihuahua warriors of long ago. The only problem is the puppies take the stories literally and get into all sorts of mischief. Poor Papi ends up in the dog house more than once for filling the puppies' heads with grand ideas.

But it's not the dogs that need saving this time around. The parents of Papi's owner Sam are about to be evicted from their beloved home. After several attempts to make things right with the bank, it's not looking good. But when a pack of determined Chihuahuas is on your side, how can you lose?

With the original grossing almost 95 million in 2008, it was at first surprising to see the sequel going straight to DVD. But with little of the same star power attached, it makes sense. At least Papi kept his original voice. Chloe and Delgado did not, though it's not too distracting as their new voices are similar enough. However, it was disappointing to see no human actors reprise their roles from the first film. Susan Blakely takes over for Jamie Lee Curtis as Aunt Viv, but she only appears briefly in one or two scenes. Most of the human acting was actually rather wooden, but there were a few supporting characters who made things interesting, namely Elaine Hendrix as the owner of a snotty French Poodle and the cat loving bank clerk. Also, Morgan Fairchild does justice to a dog show commentator alongside French Stewart.

The best part of the movie was seeing cool German Shepherd Delgado again. The subplot involving his two estranged police dog sons was a nod to every melodramatic father/son movie ever made, but it actually worked here and was a touching addition.

All in all, if you enjoyed the first installment you'll probably enjoy Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2, especially if you're a dog lover or a kid. It's clean entertainment with a good message about love and family. Just don't expect too much, and you'll have an enjoyable family movie night.
