    A worthy sequel to the original fan favorite.

Why We Rated This on for Ages 8 and Up

The good stuff

  • Messages:

    The girls are good role models who cherish their racial diversity, value education, promote independence, and make thoughtful decisions. Their friendship is based on honesty and mutual respect. Parents have close relationships with their daughters and help them through emotionally difficult times.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence & scariness:

    Not an issue.
  • Sexy stuff:

    A few mild kissing scenes and some flirtatious exchanges.
  • Language:

    Occasional uses of "Oh, my God," but nothing stronger.
  • Consumerism:

    Wardrobes are very trendy, and the show's musical bent could be seen as a commercial for the accompanying soundtrack.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About The Cheetah Girls 2

Parents need to know that this movie -- a sequel to the immensely popular The Cheetah Girls -- is more mature and much less hyper than the original. The characters have aged, and their flair for drama has taken a backseat to introspective decision making and goal setting, making them more realistic (and positive) role models. The girls face dilemmas about exploring new relationships (including a boy/girl one) without hurting existing friendships and striving for their own dreams while still contributing to a team effort. Parents play an integral role in guiding the girls over the bumpy road of adolescence.

    if you like music you should get this cd or watch the movie.

    I think that this movie should be a rating for ages 4 and up because there are no bad words or no bad things or inappropriate things.. that is my opinion on the cheetah girls.

    Ehhh....

    I stongly dislike this movie, because it is annoying sometimes. I don't think teen's moms would let them go to Barcelona, alone. But, the girls do send a great message. It's so cute when my 3-year-old throws her hands in the air and says: "Cheetahlicious!"

    Great for younger viewers!

    My 8-year-old loves this movie! It's not my favorite, but the girls show a great message.
