![Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey [DVD]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716ZpjbLetL.jpg)
Product Description The world’s most beloved and inquisitive monkey is back in Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey, the fun-filled sequel to the hit animated movie. Join Curious George and The Man with the Yellow Hat as they set out on a madcap cross-country adventure to reunite Kayla, a homesick elephant, with her family. This unlikely trio faces all types of comic calamities and colorful characters and in the end learn that with family, friends and determination you can achieve anything. Featuring the voices of Tim Curry, Matt Lauer, Jamie Kennedy and Jerry Lewis, Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey, “proves that family, friends—and curiosity—are number one.” (Francine Brokaw, Los Angeles Family Magazine) desertcart.com Young children, and monkeys, thrive when they enjoy a close relationship with their families and caregivers, but their innate sense of curiosity is bound to get these young members of society into trouble from time to time. In Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey, the Man with the Yellow Hat (Ted) is up for a promotion to museum director at the Bloomsberry museum--all he has to do is convince the board of directors that he's the best man for the job. As Ted focuses in on his priorities for the museum's future, some gentle prodding from his monkey George and woman friend Maggie remind him that those you care about need to be high on one's priority list as well. A trip to Piccadilly's circus seems like just what George, Maggie, and Ted need, but when Ted "volunteers" for a magic trick that goes terribly wrong, George and the circus's elephant Kayla wind up missing. What ensues is a perilous and adventure-filled cross-country train chase that ends with an insightful lesson about the importance of family, perseverance, and doing what's right. The great thing about this film is that the animators have preserved the simple, colorful style of the original book illustrations for Margret and H. A. Rey's Curious George, while adding in some distinctly modern touches. Also, the voice talent, music, and script are very effective at re-creating the tone of the books. There are, however, two starkly strange elements in this film: the private investigator character Danno Wolfe and the television reporter Hark Hanson. Perhaps the introduction of these characters was just another attempt to modernize the story, but the cynical detective and sensationalist television personality seem completely out of place in the innocent world of Curious George. Nonetheless, toddlers, young children, and even their parents can't help but delight in the simple antics of this very curious monkey named George and his caregiver the Man with the Yellow Hat. --Tami Horiuchi Review: Entertaining with some pretty funny parts in the movie! Kids loved it! - I bought this and Curious George 3 at the same time because they both aired on PBS last week. My oldest just started school so he had to miss them and this was a "reward" for making it through his first ever week of school. I had only promised him the 3rd movie, but it seemed so strange to have the 1st and 3rd movies without the 2nd one, so this made it into the cart as well. It was a good thing, too! The kids ended up liking this one better than Curious George 3. Although both movies are entertaining, this one has a part where George is teased by the "bad guy" and George ends up getting what he wants... basically because he's a monkey. For some reason, the kids LOVE that part. They laugh like crazy and ask how George did it. The "bad guy" isn't really a bad guy but more of a guy that you just REALLY don't like because he does everything bad and uses inaccurate or incomplete information to make a bad decision. The voice of Ted is back to Jeff Bennett which is the voice in the tv shows (not the voice in the first movie which was Will Ferrell). For me, that is good because I like the voice played in the tv show and have come to know it as "the man in the yellow hat". For the kids, I don't think they really care. It was a little weird seeing Ted put work ahead of George, though, and although the story line was trying to teach kids about the importance of loved ones, etc., I don't know if my kids completely understood the reasoning of why Ted was even preoccupied with work to begin with. (My kids are pretty young.) The journey was fun and entertaining, though, which is what I was expecting from the movie. There really wasn't anything scary in it for the kids (although I was very surprised at the scene with Ted chasing after the train... the kids seemed to expect a happy result so they weren't shocked in the least)... and obviously you don't have to worry about bad words or inappropriate scenes. So... good movie overall. Review: Great seller - Great product

Entertaining with some pretty funny parts in the movie! Kids loved it!

Great movie, don't waste your time with the 1-star reviews
This is a really good kid's movie. In the first movie, The Man With The Yellow hat's voice is done by Will Ferrell, and in this one it is done by the same voice as the PBS series. I think it is better that that way for the sake of continuity. As for the Man's behavior, isn't it only appropriate that he is stressed out over his current work situation and the fact that his monkey wandered off with an elephant on a train headed for California? Kids see us (adults) handle life's stress and can relate to how George feels as he has to deal with the Man's stress. I don't think he lashes out at George or "freaks" out any more then the average, NORMAL, adult. My three-year-old has watched this movie over a hundred times and has never once asked me about what kidnapping or murder is, but when he does, I will respond with the truth, since these things do happen in real life, why not deal with it when the source is a harmless movie? In response to the "talentless band" who preforms the music for this movie, I think they are great. The songs are appropriate for the feeling of each scene and are really very good. So they aren't "mainstream" but they are good. Over all, I think this is a wonderful movie for any child who enjoys the PBS series.

Pretty good, with one problem
I liked the first one better, and the Halloween one is my daughter's favorite. This one is still really good. Fun and the animation is smother than the regular tv show. However, I have to agree with one of the other mom's reviews I saw after I purchased this. There is a scene towards the beginning that uses the word "murder." Now, it's a short scene and they don't talk about it much, but it is said once and repeated. Basically, a detective gets mad at the Man in the Yellow Hat (did anyone else know his name was Ted?) and asks if Murder would just not be a big deal and then Ted says "Murder?!" It's hard to describe if you don't know what's going on but it's one of those things where if you didn't have kids you probably wouldn't even pick up on it and think it's completely g rated, but then when you have kids you realize, "oh, my child is going to either repeat the word or start asking what it means" and then you wonder why they even put that line in there for such an innocent film? It's a line that could have been take out and was not necessary at all because nothing even remotely close to a murder or death in general is in the movie at all. Overall still a good movie, but they just shouldn't have put that line in the movie.

Great movie
It is a straight to DVD stand-alone 2009 sequel to Curious George. Such a cute movie. Even I enjoy watching it repeatedly. The characters are cute and I like that the songs are easy to listen too and pleasant to listen too. Some of the fast-moving train scenes present some perilous moments, but what would a road-trip movie be without a little taste of adventure? The Man with the Yellow Hat falls from a cliff (but is saved by an elephant). More peril when characters parachute from a plane; nobody is hurt. There are some themes of abandonment and separation from family, but everyone is brought together for a happy ending. What I especially appreciate about the movie is the positive messages it portrays about the importance of family and friends.

I enjoyed the first movie, but they get better as they go along. This is the 2nd movie. Good story, enjoyable for children.

Nous avons déjà vu le film a la tv il y a 2 ans et a l'époque mon fils de 3 ans était un grand fan de Georges. Aujourd'hui, je l'ai commandé pour ma fille de 2 ans et elle aussi, elle est tombée sous le charme du petit singe. Pour une fois, tous les deux sont d'accord sur le choix du film! Je suis ravie de cet achat et je trouve cela dommage qu'il y a si peu de versions françaises de Georges curieux en DVD.

息子がおさるのジョージが好きなので、購入してみました。他にも英語のDVDを見せていたせいもあるかもしれませんが、英語だというのに、最後まで飽きもせず観ていられています。今、４歳なので耳が良く育つ６歳まで、意味はわからずとも英語に触れさせておこうと思っています。

Süsser Film, aber leider nicht auf Deutsch abspielbar. Aber wir haben ihn auf Englisch geschaut und es war trotzdem für unseren Sohn ein Spaß, er meinte: "Coco spricht ja die Sprache wie immer" :-D P.S.: Auf der "A very monkey christmas" DVD ist Deutsch verfügbar
