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.

Dumb and loud, with questionable material.

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.

La verdad es una pésima película, sin nada de gracia, un guión pobre y paupérrimo, ruidosa y bastante tonta.

Not only is Son of the Mask a bad film, it is horribly written, has awkward acting, filled with creepy, lame visual effects, and filled with too much wide angle lens. The visual effects for poor Baby Alvey is worse than Baby Geniuses. I don't recommend this film for children under 13.

One of the worst movies ever made. Right down there with the,"son of the pink panther", "son of Robin hood", anything with "son of". B and c list actors. Even a baby and a dog can't save it. The asshole who green lit this should be locked away and forced to watch it in a continuous loop.

If you make movies you ought to have known this was going to be a huge flop it doesn't matter how much Jim Carrey would need to be paid you pay him that dude singlehandedly made 3 Sonic movies tolerable which means even paying 95 percent of the budget for 15 minutes of Carrey is worth it. Instead you replace him w an annoying ginger whose claim to fame is being a very annoying hateable character- a white guy pretending to be black.. There is no way anyone that produced this movie thought this movie wasn't going to be possibly the worst movie ever received by the public I will not believe anything different you can't be that dumb and also make movies. Ps gingers have no souls
