With our tween son, we enjoyed this film so much more than the first. So many moments where we were erupting in laughter. Characters like Mopsy -renaming herself as Lavatory- Fox, as a new vegetarian and the D'eer, have some wonderful jokes. Peter learns his lesson and everything turns out great. Tim Minchin as the Busker/squirrel was a delight and a fab use of music for parents. Great animation and MacGregor wasn't as suffocating awful as in the first movie- honestly spoilt it for me. We watched PR2, twice just for the brillance of the Farmers Market sequence that is delightful even if this outcome wasn't what Peter (or the viewer) expects.
Could have had less of Bea's publishing storyline, but that is a small complaint.
Overall, a great change from scary, dark or battle-violent storylines that often creep into kids tv.
