2.0 out of 5 stars Lost all the charm of the first movie July 1, 2011
By DJTackyT
Format:DVD
Sequels are sometimes good, but most times not. This sequel is terrible. I just bought the original "Hoodwinked" because I loved it and have seen it at least 3 or 4 times. I have recommended it to many people. When part "Too" came out, I saw it in the theater, I was so excited about it. Man, was I blow away by how poor it was. All the ineresting angles and approach of the original was gone... it was just another animated kids movie with straight-forward, predictable plot. I recall chuckling a couple times... that is it.

I am sorry to give this such a low rating, but, to make up for that, I highly recommend you go buy the original Hoodwinked... you will be happy you did. (Just try to resist the temptation to follow up the watching of that great movie with watching this sequel.)

Note: I am a father of several small kids. I hated Hoodwinked Too (as you can tell); but my kids liked it... so I give it two stars as the average of my 0 star rating and my kids 4 stars. If you are just getting it for the kids, it could be worth it.

2.0 out of 5 stars A Missed Opportunity--A Bigger Plot Can't Make Up For a Lack Of Heart And Humor August 16, 2011
By K. Harris HALL OF FAMETOP 10 REVIEWER
Format:Amazon Instant Video
While the original "Hoodwinked" might not be my favorite movie of skewed fairy tales (that place in my heart belongs to Shrek), it was a clever colliding of movie styles. With four character narratives intersecting and intertwining, the film played as an amusing riff on "Rashomon" and even "Pulp Fiction" for the animated set. It was a bit uneven, but it worked largely by pushing the boundaries with a great concept. Eschewing the charm and most of the laughs of its predecessor, the sequel "Hoodwinked Too!" arrives in an impressive package. However, the film itself is all concept and no heart. But what's worse--it boasts a terrific cast of comedic vocal talent, but lacks a real sense of humor. I wanted to like this movie, truly I did, but ultimately I just didn't care about the characters.

Set in the aftermath of the first movie, your favorites (Red, Granny, Wolf, Twitchy) are back and part of a elite special forces unit. Called in to rescue Hansel and Gretel from a wicked witch, the mission goes seriously awry leading to Granny being kidnapped. It's all part of a nefarious plan to get the secret ingredient for a truffle that will instill great power to those that eat it. Desperate to save Granny, Red and the crew head to the big city to do battle with ultimate evil. The plot is pleasantly silly, but the screenplay is not. Everything is staged as a loud action set piece which we're supposed to find hilarious. Look, there's Granny doing flips--ha ha. Look at Red bungee jump--hilarious. I wanted more effort to be given to the characters. Make me care and make me laugh by what they have to say. Or if it's all going to be sight gags, make them genuinely funny.

The invaluable Patrick Warburton has only a few laughs as Wolf (which is a crime in itself, the guy is genuinely hysterical), but does what he can with the material. Bill Hader and Amy Poehler get the best lines as Hansel and Gretel. Joan Cusack gives a reliably sturdy performance as the wicked witch. Twitchy (Cory Edwards) made me smile once or twice. But poor Glenn Close gets zero as Granny. And Hayden Panettiere is a very flat lead through both performance and script. What a waste of talent! Maybe the kids will like some of the frantic antics, but there are so many better options available on the animation market. I found this to be a real disappointment. While not perfect, the first one had charm and style--this is absolutely robotic and without heart. KGHarris, 8/11.

1.0 out of 5 stars Please, take time to read, just facts, not just "my" words/view. September 3, 2011
By Jeffrey L. Middaugh
Format:Blu-ray
Umm, glad someone enjoyed it with kids, about the only way to do it, but its rank. I hate to bash, I am only here because I want to warn others, it is bad! I am not comparing it to the first, or other movies, it stands on its own as thin and not worth any amount of money. If you watched the first I bet this movie had some appeal to see the characters again, but that would be about it. I have never seen so many cliché sayings in a movie (even those doing it to poke fun of those) but this one was stale with so many used over and over from the past. Fast paced so you don't get bored or realize there is no content, or story line or good character content. And last, first time the wife agreed with me; the movie was poor. Don't often do this (ever?), but this disc is being returned!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hoodwinked Too!
Loved this. It showed a strong female character in the lead position, but it also shows that us old broads can still have an exciting life too! Loved the goat.

This is a great movie to put on when its time for the kids to relax. It has all of their favorite fairytale characters, and has a decent storyline. The 3d is great also!

The movie was not what I consider a "good" movie. None of my 6 grandchildren enjoyed it nor do they want to see it again.
