Beethoven's 2ndx$9.48
    (14 reviews)
Best Price: $9.48
This 1993 sequel to the St. Bernard hit finds big, fluffy Beethoven now at home with gruff-but-lovable dad Charles Grodin, supermom Bonnie Hunt, and their three kids. The story continues with Beethoven falling for a female St. Bernard and having a litter, unbeknownst to Grodin, while the new dog's owner (Debi Mazar) starts angling for benefits from this union. The larger dog pool certainly adds more cuteness and laughs to this follow-up, and Grodin and Hunt--consummate professionals--don't let sequel-itis lower their energy or their wonderfully idiosyncratic way with dialogue. Mazar brings her own edge to the proceedings, too, but in the end, the film's accent is still very much on a feel-good experience for everyone. --Tom Keogh

Sweet Movie      By on 2002-03-07
This is a funny and adorable movie. We actually like it better than the 1st one. The theme is love instead of violence like the 1st. We laugh our heads off many times during the movie. My kids are five and four.
BEETHOVEN HAS FOUND A GIRLFRIEND!      By on 2004-03-15
i watched Beethovens 1st 2nd and 3rd and i got to say this is the best one ever. This movie is about beethoven finding a mate, but the girl (missy) gets taken away by an evil dog napper. Beethoven saves her and she had puppies, but the dog napper soon takes missy away again, now its up to the newton to save the puppies from being drowned, our worse. I liked this movie because i like dogs and adventures, the puppies are so cute and i cant believe anyone would like to drown them, before i go i would like to recommend this movie to anyone who likes animals, even if your not a big animals fan you still gotta see this movie
Beethoven's own family      By A88Z0WGMK5JCP on 2003-06-25
So far this is best Beethoven movie ever out of the other Beethoven movies. Beethoven gets a girlfriend and has puppies. But Missy(Beethoven's girlfriend) is owned by a evil women who hates dogs. She just wants Missy for money because she is a pure blood. Beethoven is split from his love throughout the whole movie. I felt sorry for beethoven. But the puppies are okay with Beethoven's owners for a while. Charles Grodin was funny than ever. I enjoyed every minute of this movie. It is funny and heartwarming like the original. I wish I had this movie.

Almost as good as the first      By A2QRB6L1MCJ53G on 2000-10-18
"Beethoven's 2nd" is a good movie, and it's a lot like the original movie. The only difference is that in this one, Beethoven finds a girlfriend and has a bunch of puppies. So George Newton (Charles Grodin) will have even more dogs to roll his eyes at this time around. The children beg their dad to let the new puppies stay until they get grown, and after awhile he agrees. However, not all is smooth sailing for Beethoven, his girlfriend, and the puppies. In ways, this movie might remind you of "101 Dalmatians" because a mean woman and her sidekick are trying to catch the puppies' mom after the woman gets a divorce from her husband, who is the owner of the dog. She might remind you of Cruella De Vil in a way. Beethoven and his family must find a way to keep their puppies and Beethoven safe, just in case the woman decides she wants them too.Some of the best parts of the movie are when Beethoven and the family go to the carnival and he and Mr. Newton enter a hamburger eating contest, and when Beethoven rips down the complete side of a house. The movie isn't as funny as the first one was, but some parts of it were funny, and the whole movie is good. If you like good family or comedy movies, I recommend getting "Beethoven's 2nd."
- Cuter than the first
     By A1K95IW5MZ9X00 on 2001-07-20
BEETHOVEN'S 2ND, in my opinion, is even cuter than the first BEETHOVEN. I laughed REALLY hard when George (Charles Grodin) first discovered the puppies in the basement of his house and said, "OH, no!" Those puppies were REALLY adorable! In my opinion, Regina (Debi Mazar) and Floyd (Chris Penn) were like Cruella and her henchmen, Horace and Jasper! I was glad when the puppies got them all dirty. I mean, what human being would want to drown five sweet, cute, innocent puppies? When Beethoven caused the deck of Taylor's (Ashley Hamilton) lake house to collapse, I was relieved because he saved Ryce (Nicholle Tom) from being raped. In conclusion, I HIGHLY recommend this cute movie to all you Charles Grodin fans or dog lovers out there who have not seen it.
- Touching and funny, worth owning. Worth re-watching.
     By A1VAJHFDFVGS81 on 2000-10-07
This touching movie features incredible animal actors/actresses, oh, and the humans aren't bad, either.More hysterical funny stuff from yer average St. Bernard. The kids will love this one. As a parent I found nothing offensive, and so much good stuff to love about the movie. Worth owning and rewatching.
- The continuing adventures of Beethoven
     By A1IKOYZVFHO1XP on 2005-03-12
Now that the lovable St. Bernard Beethoven is enjoying life with his new masters,the Newtons,he begins to start a family of his own,biologically. Beethoven impregnates a female St. Bernard named Missy and the canine couple sire four puppies. One of is named Tchaikovsky,after another late classical music great. First,George Newton(Charles Grodin) objects to Beethoven in the Newtons' home,then objects to the mutt's offsprings. The Newton family agreed to find homes for the puppies after they've grown. George's wife Alice(Bonnie Hunt) is now working with her husband at his air freshener factory. One memorable scene is where the Newtons take a vacation up in the mountains,with Beethoven in tow,of course. Missy belongs to a mean-spirited young woman named Regina(Debi Mazar) who is going through a divorce. After the divorce is final,Regina's now-ex-husband is granted sole custody of Missy. The ex-hubby and Missy visit the Newtons in the last scene. This film would one of Grodin's last. Subsequently,he co-starred with Martin Short in CLIFFORD. Grodin's previous films include SEEMS LIKE OLD TIMES,IT'S MY TURN,MIDNIGHT RUN and TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS.
- Good for the little ones
     By A38I00SO3D9ZSM on 2006-07-18
The movie is corny, implausible and poorly acted, but the puppies are incredibly cute! Little kids will love this movie if just for the puppies. If you have young children you want to keep entertained, Beethovens' 2nd will hold their attention. Afterwards, your kids will probably start bugging you to get them a puppy.
- Better than the first one
     By on 2000-04-30
I like this movie. The first one wasn't that good but this one was great. It's truly recommened for kids though but I think it's a movie for all ages if your a Beethoven fan, but it's a good movie.
