... View MoreI love the first Brave Little Toaster, and saw both its sequels The Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue and The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars. Both are rather bland in comparison, but both are watchable unlike some of the other animated sequels I've seen.Its problems are actually similar to the first sequel's. It is too short, and the story is rather predictable and rushed despite the quite nice ending. The songs are on the forgettable and unnecessary side too, the one at the beginning especially is the epitome of sap. Also it is lacking the eerie yet compelling, touching quality the original has.However, apart from some characters being re-designed and looking rather strange and off-model, the animation is not too bad. The backgrounds are decent enough as are the colours. The writing isn't as strong, but there are some humorous and poignant ones which I appreciated. The characters are still likable, and the voice actors do do very well, even the new-comers and replacements.All in all, a bland sequel, but not a bad one. 5/10 Bethany Cox
... View MoreMy son likes this movie, particularly the music. I have no strong feelings about it one way or another, except that the adults seem to be far too wide-awake and cheerful to be the parents of a new baby. My favourite part was hearing DeForrest Kelley as the voice of the Viking spacecraft.
... View MoreLet me just say that the original "the Brave Little Toaster" is *still* one of the most charming animated features I've ever seen. It is, by turns, adorable, funny, sweet, and thrilling, and it didn't surprise me at all that some of its production team went on to produce "Toy Story", another one of my favorites.With all that said, this sequel has some really big circuits to fill. It is a big disapointment. It's cute but instantly forgettable, and while the first movie had fantastic music (the score is one of the most hauntingly beautiful I've ever heard for an animated film), the songs in this outing will *really* make your toes curl. As if that wasn't enough to insult us fans of the original movie, for some reason they didn't think we'd notice that Radio has a different voice and that Chris and Computer have been totally redesigned (for the worse). What does it say that the best part of the video is the preview for "Kiki's Delivery Service"? Go watch that movie instead.
