My baby sister used to watch this over and over and over again a few years ago. It's probably the most watchable of all the Carebear videos I remember her watching, and it's actually an OK movie. It's not scary, but the talking star in the beginning's a little creepy so I don't know how kids would respond to that?

Though it has no connection to the first movie, Care Bears 2 : A New Generation is fun enough to entertain toddlers and preschoolers but anyone above the age of 6 or 5 will find this movie dull and maybe even confusing as it never explains Darkhearts origins, his motive, where the new generation of Care Bears came from, or where the mystical world of Care-a-lot is located, and why Darkheart needed to first make the girl camper trust him before he used her to capture the Care Bears instead of just forcing her to help him when he first met her or most of all just going ahead and capturing the bears himself as he certainly seems capable of doing it with his ability to turn into practical any animal real or imaginary (yes I am likely over thinking a kids movie but even a kids movie has to have some explanations weather they are logical or not). Also the other aspects of the movie such as the songs and visuals are practically the same as in the first except for the fact that there are now a couple of new songs which are in fact actually more enjoyable then the ones in the first movie where most of the songs sound like the person singing them had stayed of for 6 days or just had been really, really bored and uninterested.
