It's your usual low-budget, unbelievably bad sequel.September 26, 2005
No doubt extensive market research shows that there's an audience out there for movies like Son Of The Mask, but it's too depressing to speculate who that might be.February 18, 2005
With so many cuts a second, all attention goes into following the visuals. Just as well, since the story leaves so little to work with.October 18, 2008
Kennedy is feeble and even Alan Cumming makes less of a meal than he could of his role as the petulant god of mischief.December 28, 2010
Dumb and loud, with questionable material.January 08, 2007
Whatever possessed director Lawrence Guterman and writer Lance Khazei to transform the sequel to 1994's libidinous hit comedy into pabulum?February 22, 2005
In the five years I've been co-hosting this show, this is the closest I've ever come to walking out halfway through the film, and now that I look back on the experience, I wish I had.July 06, 2010
Sequels without their original stars are usually sent direct to video. Some deserve better, [but] this isn't one of those.May 21, 2007
If nothing else, Son Of The Mask's bad seed baby serves up an all natural commercial for mental birth control.February 18, 2005
A film top-heavy with joyless Tex Avery-style special effects and a dancing-baby bit embarrassingly reminiscent of TV's Ally McBeal.August 07, 2008
Also struggling vainly against the visual effects are Traylor Howard as Kennedy's wife and Bob Hoskins as Cumming's father, the god Odin.February 19, 2005
If you are the son of Frankenstein, Flubber, Dracula, Lassie, Ali Baba, Sinbad, Billy the Kid, Davy Crockett, Robin Hood, Tarzan or Satan, you have to accept that the movie about you is likely not as good or memorable as the one about your dad.
