As Seen on Screen offers readers a chance to see film reviews for the everyman, without all of the clutter and nonsense fed to the average filmgoer. Plain, straitforward, to the point. That's our goal. We offer a diverse catalogue of which to choose from, from silent comedies to modern superhero films. Final note: this is a family friendly blog. We only review films rated G through PG-13, plus the unrated films of yesteryear. So if this sounds like your cup of tea, pull up a crumpet and enjoy. Thanks for your support!

     Open Season 2
2008  PG  ANIMATED  1h 16min
CAST— Joel McHale, Mike Epps, Jane Krakowski, Billy Connelly, Crispin Glover
MUSIC— Ramin Djawadi  DIRECTOR— Matthew O’Callaghan

     Boog and Elliot hit the road again in this kiddee film that frankly fails to impress. As Elliot and the one “deer” to his heart are to be married, their domesticated K-9 pal Mr. Weenie has been reclaimed by his owners. A rescue mission is soon underway; but they’d better hurry: A motley assortment of pets led by one toy poodle named Fifi have their collective mind set on re-domesticating Mr. Weenie, exorcising him of his “feral” ways, using everything from squeaky toys to shock collars. Can Boog and Elliot (plus other assorted game and wildlife) rescue the wiener dog before he becomes a mindless pooch once again? Besides the addition of Fifi (and one seriously creepy housecat), there’s nothing new here at all, nothing to recommend. Few laughs for adults; other than that, it’s all up to the kids.
