... View MoreThis movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
... View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
... View MoreIn a magazine about Disney that i read recently, this animation was considered like an awful sh.t, totally shameful and disastrous.. On the other hand, my watching was rather peaceful and interesting. Maybe the fact that i still haven't watch the original explains my attitude but it would be only marginal. OK : the start is a bit rough because we catch up Bambi and his father just after mom/wife death in winter We don't know more and it's true that Bambi doesn't seem particularly affected by such a loss If we put that apart, however, the movie is rather good : it's just about 1 hour so it's rather quick ; The passing of seasons, winter trough summer, is beautifully done : the colors are vivid and for one time, the songs echo to the ambiance ! The characters are well drawn, especially to read their feelings as for humans. The story focuses about Bambi learning the ropes to become the future king : we can regret the 1st rank seat but Bambi seeks also a connection with his distant father and the way to be brave. The most important is that Bambi has a lot of friends (cute Thumper !) to help him and have fun so i believe every little kid can have fun with it ! For sure, bigger children and maybe grown ups could be easily bored but that's not the point as the movie is not for them !
... View MoreDisney has been throwing sequel after sequel in our face. While most of them are duds, this one, which I consider more of a middle point of the original, is a great story.Bambi 2 has some great elements to it. The animation is actually very good especially considering it went straight to video. The story is simple enough to follow. We pick up where Bambi's mother is killed and his father rears him. The Prince of the Forest believes that a dad can't raise a fawn alone, so he tries to find a new doe to raise Bambi.All the lovable characters from the first film are here. Flower, Thumper, and of course Bambi's love interest, Faline. We also get introduced to a few new characters such as the groundhog and the porcupine. These two are merely comic relief and don't provide much to the plot. The bit with the porcupine though is rather funny.Bambi also has to deal with growing pains and his future rival Ronno. Ronno comes off as a major jerk in the movie and it suits his personality quite well.I guess my only problem with the film is that Bambi seems a little out of place. He's told to run by his father when he's confronted by the hounds yet he's frozen with fear. If Bambi was told to run by his mother then wouldn't he already know this instinct? Another thing that bothers me, and this was prevalent in the first film, is that the elements seem out of place. In the first film Bambi skips from his mother's death to spring. By this time Bambi is a full grown deer. I believe a year would have had to go by before he reached adulthood. In this film winter jumps into spring and he is still a young doe just starting to reach a starting point into adulthood. Those are the only things that bug me about the films, other than that the original and the mid-quell are great classics in my library.
... View Morethe first film had pleasant and beautiful scenarios, characters with exciting music and moments very, very sad, and Bambi 2 things haven't changed, the film back to Bambi's childhood where little deer once again delights with so much cuteness and charisma, the first scene of the film is soon after the death of Bambi's mother also return his friends and also appears a rival for him, this film is beautiful, funny and amazing, I love it too much the soundtrack, was a continuation that took many years, but Bambi is back with a great sequel and is a film that many fans will love, a sequel that is very special to me, never a movie so innocent made me fall in love so much...
... View MoreI honestly wasn't expecting Bambi 2 to be as good as it was. I found it it sweet, funny and adorable. The original Bambi is not only one of my favourite Disney movies, but one of my favourite movies ever. I thought this a very worthy sequel, well it was more of a midquel really, if a tad rushed in places. I liked the fact that they focused on Bambi and his father, after his mother dies, and the story itself was very sweet and well crafted. The animation was beautiful here, not quite as splendid as its predecessor. I have seen sequels like FernGully 2 and Secret of NIMH 2 where the animation is dull, tacky and choppy. Here it was colourful, vibrant and fluid, just look at the wondrous backgrounds. And I absolutely loved the soundtrack, that alone contributed to the film's charm. Of course I do slightly prefer the original's music, but the soundtrack here was so pleasant to the ears. The characters were every bit as likable as they were in the first- Bambi if you forgive the fact his facial expressions were overdone at times, was still adorable and appealing, and Thumper is hilarious. If there is one thing I prefer over the original, it is that the sequel is funnier than the original. The original, while having some very funny moments was more of a tearjerker and a genuine one it was too. In the sequel, there are five or six funny bits in the first fifteen minutes alone. The voice acting was most impressive, special mention must go to Patrick Stewart, who was perfect as the Great Prince. My final verdict is that it isn't quite as good as the stunning original, but along with King Of Thieves and Enchanted Christmas, this is in the top 5 of my favourite sequels. A solid 8/10 Bethany Cox
