The parents' guide to what's in this TV show.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Under Wraps 2, an installment of the Under Wraps Disney franchise, features some mildly spooky moments and a few jump scares that end up being more humorous than scary, but they may frighten very young or sensitive viewers. Despite the presence of a vengeful character, the overall series features positive themes, including family, friendship, creative problem-solving, and teamwork. Romance is a theme, but it's presented innocently. There are a few moments of peril but no blood or gore, and there's nothing violent to worry about.
What's the Story?
UNDER WRAPS 2, a sequel in the Under Wraps franchise, features a pair of mummies in danger and their loyal group of friends committed to helping them. Amy (Sophia Hammons) is planning a Halloween-themed wedding for her dad (Claude Knowlton) and his fiancé Carl (Antonio Cayonne). Her best friends Marshall (Malachi Barton) and Gilbert (Christian J. Simon) are excited about the party, and will attend with their chaperone Buzzy (Melanie Brook). But when they realize that their favorite mummy couple, Harold (Phil Wright) and Rose (Rryla McIntosh), could be in danger thanks to the awakening of Sobek (T.J. Storm), a mummy who has been holding a grudge against Harold for a thousand years, they know they have to do something.
Is It Any Good?
This Halloween-themed TV movie offers all the mild spookiness and major goofiness that the franchise is known for. Like the 2021 installment, Under Wraps 2 features a diverse cast and positive themes like friendship, family, and love. Like most tween-oriented Disney entertainment, it has expected fare like fun mishaps and upbeat musical dance numbers. If you're looking for something that offers more laughs than scares, this one will fit the bill.
