The first Ferngully movie was pathetic environmental anti-pollution propaganda, designed to make children hate pollution without knowing both sides to the issue. Still, at least the first one had voice talents like Robin Williams (Batty) and Tim Curry (Hexxus). This 1998 sequel is even worse than the first one! Not only does it still succeed in cramming all that "go green" cr@p in it, but the soundtrack was awful, the characters were horribly drawn and animated, the plot wasn't even complex enough to entertain a four year old and let's face it, how many children really care about animal poaching? Not any I know! I hated the first one, but at least it had decent voice acting, (and Tim Curry's performance of "Toxic Love"). This one doesn't even have Hexxus in it, and the new characters added in are all really dorky. I'd avoid this film if I were you, your kids don't deserve to be subjected to this.

It mite be different from the 1st but isn't that the point of movie series, i am a fan of movies, i liked the story line where Pips & his gang go into town 2 rescue the babies stolen from the forest, it gives u some new elements, it has all the characters from the 1st just different voice actors, the only thing i didn't like was Robin Williams didn't voice batty in this movie, that's something i want 2 c Robin Williams, the town fair always makes me laugh when they land in the cow pies, it's a good movie the only thing it lacks is the original voice cast, but otherwise great movie, great story line, if you like the 1st movie give this 1 a chance i know that it's not movies likes Hangover 2, or Taken 2, or Transformers 3 dark of the moon, but you can't get everything you want in life Laura Erlich as Crysta Digory Oaks as Pips Erik Bergmann as Stump and Captain Connie Champagne as Budgie Holly Conner as Nugget, Bandy, Mrs. K, and additional voices Harry Joseph as Boss Gary Martin as Mac Matt K. Miller as Batty Westin Peace as Mr. Chuckles David Rasner as Boof and Slasher Phil Robinson as Father J.F. Rockstar as Twig K.T. Vogt as Bark and Wal

Talking about a movie that does pretty much everything wrong! Please meet "FernGully 2: The Magical Rescue"! Perhaps the absolute worst sequel of all time! Really, there just are no redeeming qualities about this movie. The only reason why I won't give it a 1 rating is because it still has some decent animation. So out of respect for the hard working animators, I'm giving this movie an extra point but that's about as kind as I can get for this movie.In all honesty, it still starts off OK enough. Nothing too special but it at least seemed like it was going to have a decent enough story in it. The movie however very rapidly starts to get worse and the final 30 minutes of this movie are just totally unwatchable! The first movie already of course had an environmental message in it but this movie goes completely overboard, with its cuddly animals and its message that is too thick on top. It's incredibly annoying and I just can't see how anyone could ever enjoy this movie, not even little kids. But the worst thing about the story remains that it's completely going nowhere, after a while. It gets sidetracked and doesn't ever get back on track on time again.The movie also features some of the absolute worst voice acting I have ever heard in an animated movie! If you are a person who thinks that it doesn't really matter who voices an animated character, you should really watch this movie! Afterward you will realize how important right casting- but also acting skills are, for a voice actor. It might have been possible that the voice actors had to do their lines, before the movie was even finished, so they had nothing to work with yet. It surely does sound that way, since the voices aren't really always corresponding with what is going on the screen and the characters don't interact very well or naturally with each other.It's also weird to hear all of the the characters from the first movie getting voiced by some completely different people in this sequel, who don't sound at all like the original actors. This is especially notable for the Batty character, who in the first movie got voiced by THE Robin Williams.Also the songs in this movie are some of the absolute worst ones you will ever hear! Why do animated movies actually so often feel the need to have songs in it anyway? There is no good reason for the songs to be in this movie and it's only distracting and annoying, also because it's so absolutely horrendous to listen to.The movie gets all the more worse to watch, when it also decides to be cuddly cute. It's just too sugarcoated all and terribly forced. It makes you mad to watch, instead of warm and mellow.Believe me, this movie is even worse than I'm making it sound already!2/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

I'm a FernGully fan and found FernGully II to be as, if not more, entertaining and held some deeper character involvement and exposure that i'm certain children "got" but think few "adults" did – there are many feelings adults take for granted and "skip over" that remain unanswered, curious and loved by children - they are always hungry for explanation and that's why I am a big animated movie fan – I also think it's fun and enjoy knowing the why of every little thing - Pips and Chrysta's relationship skirted perfectly, Chrysta matured just enough, and Pips became her and FernGully's hero (with a little help from his friends of course) – I liked the fact that Pips got more attention to date – I found the story delightful, frightening but in a "be aware" sort of way – and even the ecology of the replanting and re-growth of everything was just enough to introduce children to this topic and make them curious – and even the "babies" being taken was an awareness that held a lot of emotion and intrigue for the little ones – Kudos to the writers for better scripting and a general "well done" to all involved – Lots of magic here if you are really listening – OK so we missed Robin - but don't we always and this is about FernGully not him (sorry Robin) -
