Average viewer score of 4.7/10 from 94 ratings.
I'm a huge fan of the first movie, and of the original book. And I can certainly understand how this movie isn't liked in general and especially not by fans of the original one. Still I wouldn't consider it a total "trainwreck", I think there are actually some very nice things in it that are, sadly, ruined by others. Ultimately, it's a not-horrible cute-mice movie, but by far not a worthy sequel to Secret of NIMH.…
