Max 2: White House Hero (2017)

I loved the original movie Max, so saw this on netflix and decided to watch. Unlike the original movie which had a good storyline ,which told of his coping after coming back from war suffering from PDSD & the loss of his handler - this movie is just plain stupid. Even for a family movie it was boring, Max didn't get to do much in it either. I had hoped it might have continued with Max's story, none of the cast from the original are not in it either. The acting is awful , I only watched to the end as I said in the title because of Max, the 5 stars are for him.

I am basing my review on what my 3 boys ages, 10, 11 and 13 said about the movie. They enjoyed it (they also saw Max). I didn't even realize it was a sequel (which based on the trivia section, it's not really a sequel). While they were watching it in the car, I heard lots of laughter (good sign). The best recommendation for this movie is that they immediately asked me after it was finished "Can you get Max 3 if it exists?" They usually have good tastes when it comes to movies. But to give you an idea where their tastes are, they loved Princess Bride, Hero Factory and Mr. Bean. They were not impressed with the BFG, Where the Wild Things Are or Field of Dreams (they don't play baseball).

Loved the movie but I would like to a Max 3 since Max 1 and 2 were great (storyline), please. If you create Max 3 for the people who loved the movies 1 & 2 that would be awesome. The characters in Max 3 (if it manages to be made) should be the same ones from the first Max movie. Please.

Although the movie was somehow childish and illogical but it really could make me watch till the end. First of all, it's a comedy family movie and particularly made for children and family, so we shouldn't be tough on it. I know that there were lots of exaggeration and illogical things there, but cool that's the nature of comedy if it's logical then what's the funny thing? the story was simple but clear and lovely. Everyone knows that it's impossible for USA president to have a low secure house, and it's also impossible to see US and Russia in peace together. At least it's an invitation to peace. When it comes to characterization it's kinda weak and raw except for the dog and the two children the others just look like sidekicks to help push the movie forward, no specific personalities can be found in them. The ending was somehow ridiculous when their own staff came out spies you know that's not possible at least 99% not possible. By the way, they could use very beautiful sceneries to make the film, I really liked that Russian accent that was cute. The comedy was OK it can make people laugh and reach its goal as a family comedy I don't know why it's not listed in comedy category too. After all its a movie that you should watch and enjoy. It completely worth to watch because at the end it won't give you the feeling that why did I even watch this? Hope to enjoy watching it.
