Although many of the cast return this "midquel/sequel" lacks the enchantment of the original. The wardrobe was the notable absentee. The new characters were likeable enough and seemed to fit, apart from Forte. He's just there because no Disney film would be complete without a villain. The songs are the worst part and the plot is not without flaws. What I liked best was that my favourite character, Chip, had plenty of screen time. The rest of the ensemble were doing their best but the scripting & humour could not compare with the first story. However it is still enjoyable enough for the Christmas season. 6/10

(1997 Video)
Fair attempt with terrible songs.
