A date with Stuart Little

Two years have passed since we visited the Little family and much has changed. Stuart has blossomed and settled nicely into his new life. He goes to school (in his very own car), is very handy when it comes to building model airplanes and is proud of the fact that he made it to the football team. And he loves having a big brother, George and a new baby sister, Martha Little to play with. Even Snowbell, the curmudgeonly cat with an attitude, has warmed up to Stuart in his own little way. All is well in the Little world, where every cloud has a silver lining.

But, Stuart yearns for a friend — someone like him. Driving home from school, Stuart hears a loud squawk and suddenly an injured bird falls out of the sky, landing in the passenger seat of his car. When she regains consciousness, the mysterious bird introduces herself as Margalo. In a frightened voice she tells Stuart that she is threatened by Falcon, a feared crime lord, who terrorises all creatures in Manhattan.

When Stuart learns that Margalo does not have a place to live he insists that she stay with the Littles. Mr. and Mrs. Little immediately accept Margalo and welcome her to stay as long as she wants.

It's obvious for all to see that Stuart has a crush on the charming and beguiling bird who promises him adventure... but Margalo is hiding a dark secret and is not what she appears to be. When she mysteriously vanishes, the unlikely duo of Stuart and Snowbell set out on a heart-pounding, hair-raising journey to find her and unlock the mystery.

Stuart Little 2 is a warm, witty consistently funny family movie with a sweet message about loving yourself, be you a mouse or whatever.
