Not as great as the last

There are some funny lines here and a somewhat credible plot, but it is mainly pointed at kids, unlike the first one where there was a family film feel. This time, Stevens (playing Ben Jarvhi who in part one was Ben Jabituya) and Johnny Five wind up with sleazy salesman (Michael McKean can always generate a laugh) and villains who want diamonds under there warehouse. Not great, but it isn't a complete waste either (Five still has charm). B+

A great sequel

This is the sequel to the first classic starring Johnny Five. It returns a beloved character Ben as one of the main leads. Everyone does a great job and Johnny 5 is still as hilarious and adorable as ever. The plot is not quite as good or heartwarming but it is still very good and entertaining.This movie is about Johnny 5 who goes to the big city to help his friend benjamin. He has to help him build tiny toy robots but in the mean time Johnny is manipulated by criminals to do their bidding.This movie is good and in a lot of ways its better then the first because you see the robot much more and he is where the humor is.
