A cartoonist and family man, Tim Avery (Jamie Kennedy) lives a peaceful existence with his wife, Tonya (Traylor Howard), as well as their infant son and dog. When the curious canine finds a mask with mystical properties, both dog and baby create chaos with its powers. While Tim and Tonya try to contain the damage, the sly Norse god Loki (Alan Cumming) comes looking for the artifact, resulting in more mishaps that ultimately incur the wrath of the deity's powerful father, Odin (Bob Hoskins).

Critics Consensus

Overly frantic, painfully unfunny, and sorely missing the presence of Jim Carrey.

Que filme Ruim. Não é engraçado nem divertido como o primeiro. O roteiro esquisito e mal produzido. Eu não recomendo assistir esse filme. Assistam o primeiro filme o que é melhor.

I feel like the level of cartoon ridiculousness and bad CGI in this movie isn't that much worse than the first movie (which was much more original and funny) however, Jimmy Carrey should've been the father. I think that would've added a lot of needed charm to the film and would've made it much better for more audience types. Instead, the actors and acting were much worse and I feel strongly that this movie is meant for kids 10 and under. If you're older than 10 and watch this movie, you will likely lose brain cells like I did giving it the time of day. Not something I would watch again but no one can say it's not at least a little entertaining for what it is/trying to be!

Son of the Mask desperately attempts to revamp the playful energy of the original film, but misses the mark. Its comedy is stale, and its attempt at a family story is uneven and clichéd. On the bright side, the movie moves fast enough to watch all the way through.

Whatever possessed director Lawrence Guterman and writer Lance Khazei to transform the sequel to 1994's libidinous hit comedy into pabulum?

Sequels without their original stars are usually sent direct to video. Some deserve better, [but] this isn't one of those.

It's your usual low-budget, unbelievably bad sequel.

Kennedy is feeble and even Alan Cumming makes less of a meal than he could of his role as the petulant god of mischief.
