Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times This movie has one clear reason for being: The success of the original "Beethoven," which grossed something like $70 million. Rated: 2/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Malcolm Johnson Hartford Courant Beethoven's 2nd makes you want to roll over and take a nice long snooze. Apr 13, 2018 Full Review Quentin Curtis Independent on Sunday A case of once bitten, twice shy. Nov 28, 2017 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Less original and less charming than the first film, Beethoven 2nd is mostly known for its Oscar-nominated song. Rated: C Apr 4, 2012 Full Review M. Faust Common Sense Media A bland but enjoyable good time. Rated: 3/5 Jan 2, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews

Tralee V Not too bad to watch but I kinda sad that this is the last time we get to see the main Newton family. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/21/24 Full Review Audience Member It's a good kids movie. It kept me entertained as a child Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I somehow feel sorry for George in these horrible films. I knew there's nothing like being eaten out of house and home to cause somebody like him to remain very angry, completely vengeful, and utterly selfish. I just knew it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Even better than the first Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/25/21 Full Review Audience Member A decent movie, liked the build up love relationship between the two dogs there's not a lot of good animal romance flick these days, but this one takes the cake! I also liked the villains casted in one! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Beethoven makes a wonderful dad! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/13/20 Full Review Read all reviews
