Woodwalkers 2 (4 Stars)


This is a sequel to "Woodwalkers" that takes place shortly after the events of the first film. Thankfully the young cast hardly seems to have aged in the last 18 months. Makeup works wonders.

It's a German film with German dialogue, but it's about a school for special children based in Wyoming. The children are all able to change themselves into animals. Or is it the other way round? They're animals who can change themselves into humans. Despite being many different types of animals, some of them natural enemies, they all get on with one another.

The central character is Jay once more, a puma. He manages to make contact with his family. They're all human-puma hybrids, but unlike him they prefer to remain in their animal form. Jay's father, in particular, doesn't trust humans.

Overall, "Woodwalkers 2" is an engaging continuation that respects its fan base while broadening its emotional and visual scope. The cinema was packed today, mostly with younger children. Oliver enjoyed it.
