To me, I think was due to Illumination releasing several of its others projects…. While The Secret Life of Pets 2 was officially greenlit all the way back in 2016, the movie was delayed, pushing back its summer 2018 release date to summer 2019.
Given how the first Secret Life of Pets shaped up to be (and how it ended), it was safe to assume that Illumination Entertainment would (sometime soon) revisit the lives of Max, Duke, Gidget, Snowball, and the rest of Pets gang in the near future. Now, it’s time to talk about The Secret Life of Pets 2, a 2019 animated sequel to the original 2016 endeavor. In the end, The Secret Life of Pets was a win for Illumination Entertainment and provided that the animation studio was able to cultivate something new that didn’t involve Gru, Margo, Edith, Agnes, and the nonsensical angst of the minions. To me, I loved actor Kevin Hart playing the voice of Snowball. Max to Woody and Duke to Buzz Lightyear), but the film was entertaining enough to overlook that criticism, especially thanks to the feature’s usage of voice talents. Yes, I agree that the movie’s narrative / setup was definitely familiar to Toy Story (i.e.
In my own personal nutshell, I really quite enjoyed the movie. Of course, the feature’s promo trailers and marketing, were good and made me want to see the movie as well as the movie being produced by Illumination Entertainment (the company behind the Despicable Me films). So, you can imagine I was curious to see The Secret Life of Pets when it initial came out back in 2016. While some have been definitely better than others, the endeavors I’ve seeing (over the years) have been admirable, with plenty of cartoonish shenanigans, colorful animation, and the usage of talented / recognizable actors and actresses to play the various characters in the tales. THE GOOD / THE BADĪs you might have guessed (from my past reviews on my blog), I’ve always been a fan of animated movies. Elsewhere, a Shih Tzu dog named Daisy (Tiffany Haddish) seeks the help from the bunny Snowball (Kevin Hart) and his alter ego superhero counterpart when she witnesses a white tiger kidnapping committed by Sergei (Nick Kroll, a villainous circus owner. While Rooster shows Max the ways of gain a more daring / courageous backbone, Gidget (Jenny Slate), Max’s white Pomeranian neighbor, looks after Max’s Busy Bee toy for safe keeping, and she promptly loses the rubber ball inside a cat infested apartment, turning to cat pal, Chole (Lake Bell), for feline lessons, allowing her to go undercover to retrieve Max’s favorite toy. Once there, Max meets Rooster (Harrison Ford), a sheepdog who doesn’t understand why the timid city dog is so obsessed with stifling Liam’s curiosity. When the family decides to visit Chuck’s relatives on their farm for a weekend getaway, Max and Duke get a somewhat of a rural culture shock of trying to find their footing in this landscape. Curious about the new addition to the family, Max takes some time to warm up to Liam, eventually growing to love the baby, doing whatever he can to protect the child from harm. However, Katie soon meets Chuck (Pete Holmes), with the two falling in love, getting married, and soon giving birth to their son, Liam. Does this next chapter find the same heart and humor within its animated tale or is it a disjointed endeavor that’s a far cry from its original film? THE STORYĬontinuing to live in the bustling city life of NYC, Max (Patton Oswalt) is living comfortable and happy life with his owner, Katie (Ellie Kemper) and his other dog buddy companion, Duke (Eric Stonestreet). Now, three years later, Illumination Entertainment (as well as Universal Pictures) and director Chris Renaud present a follow-up sequel adventure with the movie The Secret Life of Pets 2. In a nutshell, The Secret Life of Pets was met with rousing success, garnishing positive reviews from critics and moviegoers, while making a large splash at the box office (roughly $875 million) worldwide. Together, both Max and Duke quarrel and try to understand each other as they deal with Snowball, a white bunny, who is building an army of lost pets. The movie, which was directed by Chris Renaud and featured the voice talents of Louis C.K., Eric Stonestreet, Jenny Slate, Kevin Hart, and several others, centered around Max, a Jack Russell Terrier whose sublime pet life gets turned upside down when his owner brings home a loud and disruptive new dog (a large, brown, shaggy, and Newfoundland mix) named Duke as the newest member of their household. Back in 2016, Illumination Entertainment released The Secret Life of Pets, an animated feature film that sparked the idea of what animal pets do when their “owners” aren’t around.
