Story: Two granddad turtles go all out to save their grand children from the mean birds. But while doing so they are captured by the same old enemy of birds and beasts -- Man. Time for the big escape.
Movie Review: The first impression: You love the sea turtles, the lobsters, the baby turtles, the clown fish, the sharks, the octopus.... They are cute, charming, adorable and of course, colourful. Don't miss out the sea bed and the artificial aquarium placed under water.
Move on to the music: It's peppy, foot tapping and bound to keep you asking for more. Over to the plot (and all that purpose behind the storyline): A little bit disappointing. It's not that we do not buy the concept of turtles captured in underwater aquariums teaming up with all varieties of fish, lobsters, penguins, eels, Big D (the sea horse and leader of the gang), etc to make a great plan to escape. We even believe in the concept 'never say never'. But then one just can't overlook the timing: We have been seeing and listening to all that a bit too much of late.
Case in point: The cute ugly fish posing as dead while he is not, simply to be thrown into the sea mistakenly (just like in the recently released 3D version of Finding Nemo). Next, the angry animals versus man in Sammy 2 lives by the 'never give up', 'nothing is impossible' and 'where there is a will there is a way' funda. Haven't we just heard that in the recently released Madagascar 3 and Ice Age 4 as well?
Now if you can keep all that man versus animal fight aside and enjoy the great plan the sea creatures have in order to execute the greater escape, you might as well give Sammy 2 a shot.
Kids, of course, just go for it!
