I really liked A Goofy Movie, it is not my favourite Disney movie, but it was charming, funny and touching with some great music and a sweet story. An Extremely Goofy Movie does have its moments, but while A Goofy Movie is very good in my book, this is just so-so.The voice acting is very well done though, both Bill Farmer and Jason Marsden capture Goofy and Max perfectly. Plus Goofy provides the most amusing moments, but he isn't as funny admittedly here. The animation is good enough, it is colourful and at least tolerable to look at. The film also moves at a good pace, while the soundtrack while not as catchy or as touching is worth the listen.However, An Extremely Goofy Movie lacks the heart and magic of A Goofy Movie. The film is too short I think, so some relationships and the story and script are not as well thought out this time around. Goofy and Max's relationship here is very awkward and sometimes uncomfortable to watch, I actually felt sorry for Goofy more than I did for Max which didn't happen in A Goofy Movie, then I cared for them both. The absence of Roxann is notable too, that was a pivotal point of A Goofy Movie and what made it so heart-warming and realistic. While I liked Goofy, I actually felt somewhat indifferent towards Max. He is not as easy to relate to and he was a bit of a bore. Also there were numerous points in the movie where I got really frustrated with him.The other characters I cared little for either. They are either underdeveloped or fall into the stereotypical category. The story is a let down here, it is predictable and rather ordinary with a number of disconnected moments. And like others have said, this movie feels very contradictory in comparison, not just with Roxann but I don't think I ever saw Max behave the way he did here. The writing and humour are also not as strong. The humour does have its amusing moments, such as Max's shocked reaction in one scene and a few parts to do with Goofy, but it is not enough. When it does happen, it is never more than amusing, and at worst some parts come across as rather mean-spirited.All in all, a bland and disappointing follow-up to a very enjoyable film. 5/10 Bethany Cox

This used be one of my fav movies as a kid I got it out on DVD and video from the video store couple of times I did not think much of it but saying it was okay its not so great I am big fan of the first film because it was adventures and wild but this one is just a Blane old film which was not good since I am older now and I pay more a techern to Roxanne then I did when I was a kid because not seeing her in this one which was bad I am not saying it was bad I saw Roxanne like character with shorter hair and the goth girl that PJ feels in love with is just wrong she was a poor made undevelopment character who did not seem to give not much inserted to me she was boring and annoying they should of made her a more surfer type girl and they should of got the actor who played rose in the new series of doctor who to play the part as the stupid girl any way about the relationship with goofy and max I thought in first one they got together but in this one they are right back to wear they stared and goofy is working at a toy making shop I thought he worked at a photo shop in a supermarket they change it. Well about the movie its just like babe where the 2nd babe is not as good as the first one but its okay for people who need to watch it. Okay I would have to say if your a big fan of A goofy movie then you might not like this film and I agear the 2nd goofy movie is not as good as the first one. This movie is okay but its not as good as the first one so I give this movie a 4 out of 10 and its ruins the whole point of the first film but at least its not a bad sequel to the fox and the hound sequel which ruined a good movie but all Theo this movie was pretty poor.

He's learnt nothing from the original 1995-movie! When his now adult son Max sets off for a new life of independence with his pals PJ and Bobby at college, Goofy can't resist going with him! Goofy is suffering with the Empty-Nest Syndrome and this affects work, so, hey presto, he'd fired.The point is that Max is TRYING to get away from his selfish dad but Goofy can only focus on his own relief of not suffering a year without his 'little Maxie'. At first, Max is (too) tolerant of having Goofy with him, understanding how sad he must've felt. But there are more embarrassing situations Goofy creates to humiliate his son; Gets him out of bed very early in the morning, embarrasses him in a clothes store, getting him to clean up the room with spades and just as Max offers a pretty girl a seat next to him, Goofy rushes to take it before her and Max's new-found enemy Brad offers her a seat instead! In time, Goofy gets romantically involved with the college librarian which doesn't fail to keep him out of his son's hair and does all three of them a lot of good but things soon take a turn for the worst. Max feels increasingly harassed by his obsessive father and is furious with him for beating him in the College X-Games (this wouldn't have happened if Goofy never went to the college)."OH DON'T YOU GET IT?!! I AM TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM YOU! I'M NOT A LITTLE KID ANYMORE!! NOW JUST LEAVE ME ALONE AND GET YOUR OWN LIFE!" Goofy, if you were my dad I'd disown you! Any road, this movie shows what medicine Goofy needs for his Empty-Nest Syndrome; a woman in his life! After so long, Goofy finds getting his mind off Max less painful as he and Sylvia head off into the sunset fora new life of their own.

As I slowly approach my twenties I must say I'm truly impressed by this movie which actually manages to entertain me, even if I'm pretty sure that I'm older than the target group. Goofy's son Max goes to college to finally get Goofy of his back, unfortunately Goofy misses Max so much that he decides to follow Max.This movie's greatest assets lies in ace animations and some rather entertaining slapstick. Goofy is both funny and sad and Max and his friends are an interesting bunch of characters. The movie sometimes feel a bit slow moving but there's more often than not something amusing waiting behind the corner. Shortly put, this is good clean entertainment for kids as well as parents and teens.7/10
