Goofs:

Continuity: In the beginning of the movie during the "I See Spots" segment, when Roger is standing in the front of the piano, playing around with the keys and holding one of the puppies, his chair has moved and can barley be seen behind a box and is closer to the wall. Then when Roger comes up with the "seeing spots" idea for his song, the chair is back in front of the piano.

Quotes:

Patch: You lied to me?
Thunderbolt: I put on an act. I'm an actor. It's what I do.
Patch: But you said I could be your junior deputy.
Thunderbolt: I made all that up. I-I just needed someone who knew the script.
Patch: But you... You said that you'd help us!
Thunderbolt: Ohhh, don't you get it, kid? All that running around and saving the day stuff, it-it's make-believe! It's not real!

Not Bad....

Coming from a parent who cringed and groaned all the way through Little Mermaid II, Cinderella II, and just about ever "II" Disney has inflicted on the public, this one wasn't bad. It kept the spirit and fun of the first, didn't get too sticky sweet, and just had a good time with itself.

Although the animation is on par with other direct-to-video releases (read: poor), had Dinsey put a little more into its development, they could've had a nice theater release on their hands. How the potential films like this are ignored, but the embarrassing Jungle Book 2 was release in theaters, I'll never figure out.

My daughter loves this one and, while it's no Toy Story, I can gladly sit through it to keep her attention away from Care Bears: The Movie.
