What the Critics say

Cape Argus / The Star
Theresa Smith quote iconThis is pre-teen popcorn fare at its best, so it would be unfair to give it only two stars, but adults, watch at your peril.
10
Die Burger
Jacques Liebenberg quote iconGemik op die jonger mark, spog dit met goeie spesiale effekte, en 'n flouerige draaiboek.
10
Cape Times
Kenneth Turan quote iconSuperhero sequel easy on the eye.
5
Mail & Guardian
Shaun de Waal

The Citizen
Nadia Gardner quote iconSo what's the bottom line on this lacklustre second installment? It's marginally more entertaining than before, but shorter. It's safe to say Story's direction is drab and anonymous. Kids will love it.
10
Sunday Times
Barry Ronge quote iconI hope the Silver Surfer ditches the dorks and returns in his own movie.
5
24.com
Alistair Fairweather quote iconDelivers exactly what it promises: adorable stars, expensive effects and adolescent mischief. Don't say we didn't warn you.
5
BBC
Tae Mawson quote iconThe sketchy characterisation and kiddie-friendly slapstick are ably papered over with dazzling set pieces of globe-skipping, landmark-bashing action.
