Alpha and Omega 2: A Howl-iday Adventure (2013)

Not even Dragon ball Evolution made me register on this site to make a critic. But not even Dragon Ball Evolution had this forced history. I can pass that a movie doesn't have the best animation, I can't forgive that a Movie doesn't have the best soundtrack, or the best music ambientation. What I care more of is history and development of the history. Both things this history didn't had. A pack of only Alphas ¿? god why, even I know that an Alpha it's a social status and not a genetic heritage, an omega it's on the bottom of the social status and that's why there can't be an only Alpha Pack, because there is always a lower class and upper class. But well, in terminology of the movie Alphas are in charge of fighting, and Omegas in charge of fun, so I guess I can let this one go. But in the development of history was awful, it was like all scenes were cut. The Dialogues weren't even funny, less say coherent or deep. It was like all the characters weren't themselves in all the movie. Humphrey wasn't funny, Kate wasn't energetic, for the sake of the drama, even physical aptitudes were destroyer, Humphrey always howled good, and now he couldn't in order to give Garth some kind of protagonism.Let's be honest, the movie was awful, as a sequel, and a disappointment and boring thing as a single movie, as a movie it get a 3, as a sequel, it should have a negative vote -4 should be enough and I'm being merciful. The thing most disappoint me of this movie, was Princess. She was the only Character it made me look at this thing to the end, to only disappear and vanish from the movie, or any sequel of it. Yeah I look to AAO 3 to see her again and guess what ?. She could have a lot more of growth as a character, the same for her relationship with Runt, but again, cutted scenes, an entire season passed and in the end of such time skip, they were a lot more close. What happened in there ?We can have a lot of excuses for why this movie wasn't even a shadow of it prequel. But I didn't watch that movie to hear excuses so I don't care about any of them. 1 awful, and only because there is no lower vote.

After falling in love with the first movie, I really wanted to see what the next one had in store for me. I was not disappointed much. Although it was not as good as the first, I still fell in love with the charming story, beautiful animation, and heartfelt voices.There is only one little problem, the underlining story was not really there. We do not get the holiday home is where the heart is idea that I feel they were trying to convey but instead a different idea. One that went more along the lines of no matter how small you are, you can help in a big way. The home idea gets lost in the middle of the story and I still don't understand what was going on with the wolf called Princess. She just disappears at a point and I never get what happens after. As much as I loved the animation and the story they were trying to place, it does fall apart.I got a bit surprised at that the difference that the personalities had, Humphrey being a lot more protective and Kate was a lot more military-ish and yet has a lot of Humphrey's fun characteristics. The pups are much more like their parents then the parents in fact. I guess that's normally true of any family though I would of liked to have a bit more of the parents keep their wild personalities.The pups designs are so cute that I couldn't help but coo at the look. The animation is pretty much the same in textures and the designs although the wolves fur is a bit shorter sadly. You would think since the show is about to fall that they would have longer coats instead. There was also times when the fur of one or two of the characters seemed to change color, turning a bit more white then it should have been or a area that was snowy wasn't in the next area.The voices were perfect bringing back the voice actors we loved and a few more. There isn't much more to say on that.Sadly, I cannot give this as high of a rating as the first and though I enjoyed it, the major flaws keep getting in the way. I still think it's a good watch, but just not enough to make it to the best list.

When Alpha and Omega was released back in 2010, its reception wasn't very positive. Both critics and movie-goers alike blasted the film, criticizing it's story, animation, and just being an overall bad film. It managed to find some fans, but it's still a film many people just simply forgot... or wanted to forget.Admittedly, it's a guilty pleasure of mine. Yeah, it's bad, and it's not something I'd recommend to anyone... but I can find some enjoyment out of it, and I don't think it's as bad as many claim (close, but not quite). With that said, in no way did I ever wish for it to receive a sequel. Honestly, it's just not necessary, and again, not too many people even liked the first film. It's fan base, if one even exists, is quite small, so who's the targeted audience? Why even bother making a sequel, knowing it probably won't sell?Well, they made one anyway, and because I somewhat enjoy the first film, I decided to give it a shot....And what a mistake that turned out to be. Any charm the first film might have had is completely absent here, and there's many reasons why. The story is predictable (even more so than the first), the characters (both old and new) are terrible and useless, the script is lousy, the jokes are lame, the animation is often very sloppy and unpolished (amateurish mistakes that would make any newbie and up-and-coming animators blush with embarrassment), among numerous other examples. For that matter, any and all wolf sound effects (Howling, growling, etc.) all sound like poor-quality stock sound effects, as if they found them off some free sound effects website. The amount of effort they put into this film is... practically non-existent. The worst offender is how short the movie is. It's not even a full- length film... no, it's only 45 minutes. And considering how the finale goes down, there's so much evidence for me to believe the film was cut short and left unfinished... as if they ran out of budget or lost the motivation to complete it (I'm leaning towards the latter).Everything about this movie screams "Lack of effort". It's an abomination to viewers and fans of the original film. Even after renting this for $4 off of Amazon Instant Video, I still feel cheated and want my money back. Avoid this movie like the plague... trust me, you won't regret it.

I am a real fan of Alpha and Omega 1 and now, after watching Alpha and Omega 2 I feel really happy because no one expected a sequel to the movie, and suddenly out of nowhere, appears Alpha and Omega 2, a sequel for my favorite movie. Some may say that the movie sucks or shouldn't even exist.That's not true, the movie is enjoyable and I would say that it's perfect if it wasn't by the fact that the movie is short, but it's already confirmed that Alpha and Omega 2 isn't the last one so, the movie's runtime isn't really important.I honestly believe that Alpha and Omega 2 was a release focused on the fans of Alpha and Omega 1, because even after the low ratings of it, they still released Alpha and Omega 2. I am a real fan and I couldn't ask for a better sequel. I really loved the movie and I hope you do too !10/10
