Review of Short Circuit 2 (1988) by Kyle T — 08 Jun 2007

This might just be my 9 year old self saying this, but I think this movie is funny, sad and inspiring. The characters are adorable. Ben, Fred and Johnny 5 are an unlikely trio that have to learn to trust each other.

I love Michael McKean as Fred. There are some great character foils between the 3. It was original from the first and made a lot of sense as a sequel. The ending becomes surprisingly exciting and you start to really feel for this metal puppet that claims to be alive.
