Good Family Entertainment - Short Circuit 2 review by Cliff
I remember taking this one out from the video hire shop when my kids were still small. It's just as enjoyable now as it was then. Children can enjoy it on one level, while adults can get all the jokes that the young ones miss. This is a sequel to the original Short Circuit which is also worth watching, but this one is better. Underneath all the fun, there is a theme of alienation in the big city - where do you fit in, how can you get accepted as a real person - but with a light touch, never preachy. At the end the message is that America is still the best place to be, and sadly this is the one thing that now seems dated.
