This movie's score has gone up a lot since the last time I checked, but I still think it's crap. I was willing to at least give credit for the original for having a coherent story and trying to show off some of the Care Bears mythology. What I hate is that none of this even makes sense with the original movie. I mean, it has the word "II" in its name yet it's no direct continuation of the original! We already saw the Care Bear Cousins origins and this completely changes that! In a movie that's intended to be a direct sequel, I would think you'd at least know what the original movie was about.
There are too many songs to list in this movie and most of them are just plain stupid. It's so obnoxious. There's a character that's supposed to be a horse, but it's literally nothing but a bear design with long ears! I'd rather watch "My Little Pony" over this. I of course mean the original series and not the awesome new one, as I'd watch that one over anything. At the end, the villain Darkheart realizes he cares and that turns him into a real boy. What? When did anything in this story imply his mission was to become a real boy?
Apparently, time moves differently as the Care Bear Cousins grow up instantly. Then again, it actually is implied time has passed back on Earth. So why are the kids the same age? At the end when the kids are waving them goodbye, they even give Darkheart the wrong character design for a moment! I knew that Christy would use her marbles to save the day. I knew really everything that would happen. This is the worst movie so far for Nostalgia Critic Month but sadly it's going to get much worse with 1987. I don't know why shattering the crystals would free the Bears either. *
