Rating: Summary: Scamp wants to be a Junk Yard Dog Review: Movie Summary: Tramp and Lady have settled down and are raising a nice little family. They have three little girls who look and act just like Lady and one little ruffian boy named Scamp who takes after his dad. All the trouble centers around scamp who is bored with being a house dog. He thinks that things look so much better for the stray dogs that live at the junk yard. The first chance he gets, Scamp runs away and joins the junk yard dogs. There he makes a friend that helps him see how things really are and just how good he really had it.My Opinion: Being a straight to video release, I didn't have very high expectations for this film. Usually that's a signal that the feature isn't up to par. But in Scamp's case we were very pleasantly surprised. We are Disney fan's, but not to the point of liking something just because it is Disney. Scamp's Adventure had a descent plot that stuck together to the end, one which my 4 year old daughter could follow and enjoy. The songs weren't bad either. The lesson that is taught is a good one. Family is important and you are lucky to have people who love and care about you. DVD Quality: Wide Screen Anamorphic with DD 5.1 audio. Both sound and Video were very good. There were enough special features to satisfy my daughter who has become a special feature junky. They include a couple of older Disney short cartoons, some games and more. What You Should Do: Get this DVD if you've got Disney fans in the house. It's worth adding to the library especially if you have Lady and The Tramp. The kids will love it.

Rating: Summary: FROM TRAMP TO SCAMP; MY DAUGHTER LOVES IT!!!! Review: "LADY AND THE TRAMP 2 - CAN WE GET IT? CAN WE GET IT?" My six year old daugher COULD NOT WAIT for us to buy this long-awaited sequel to the popular Disney classic - so, of course, we did! SO,DID SHE LIKE IT? Did she lIKE it? NO. She LOVED it! I kid you not; she is absolutely CRAZY about this movie! It's already been played too many times to count, and we have already been subjected to her "pretending to be Scamp" - a sure indication that she REALLY, REALLY likes a movie! WHY DOES IT APPEAL TO HER SO MUCH - AND WHY WOULD IT PROBABLY HAVE APPEAL FOR OTHER KIDS? Well, to answer this, first allow me to qive a "quickie plot summary: In Lady and the Tramp 2, Scamp (Tramp's mischevious offspring) is sick and tired of living the "cushy" housepet life. He longs to be FREE; free of annoying rules, like: DON'T MAKE A MESS IN THE HOUSE! (Are you starting to get a clue as to why this movie will appeal to kids)? Anyway, so he "breaks free" of the leash that binds him, and runs off to join the "junkyard dogs" - where he falls in love with Angel - a cute pup, who ironically, longs for a home of her own! KID APPEAL: I think my daughter just really relates to that whole "freedom of rules" idea, which this movie explores. Of course, the movie DOES have a happy ending (hey, it's Disney, right) so you don't have to worry! MY FINAL WORD ON THIS SEQUEL: There are those who will claim it's "not as good as part one" blah, blah, blah. Well, guess what? Kids don't care! And I really believe that's who this sequel is geared for: The little ones (not us big ones)! Although I must say, they emulated the artwork from the original house and characters quite well, and I was impressed by that! Yes, the movie is somewhat predictable; somewhat silly - but kids love that! I would definitely recommend this movie for all families with young children (ages 4-10), and parents, try to keep your overly-discerning ADULT opinions about it, to yourself!
Rating: Summary: good but still not as good as the first Review: we all know that disney has a problem with makeing sequels but just the same its hard to make a sequel 40yrs later. all in all though this movie is awsome, great songs, good storyline, and great charicters
Rating: Summary: Scamp is the poor man's Scrappy Doo... Review: And just as annoying. My 3 year old daughter loves this movie (mostly because she thinks she's a dog lately), but I just want to bury it in the backyard. Lady & the Tramp was Disney at it's finest, but this movie just felt 2nd tier the entire way through. The animation was dead-on, but the script, music, and voice talents were bland and uninteresting. If it weren't for the special features, and the fact that it keeps the kids quiet for 70 minutes, I'd only give it one star. Bottom line is that it had little purpose besides dealing [with] how parents are boorish control freaks who set up a bunch of rules "for your own good", but only after children experience the hard-knock life for themselves can they ever accept any guidance or wisdom from their parents. The lessons in these movies are not lost on the kids...I caught my daughter soon after a couple of viewings telling me she doesn't want to take a bath because she's "a wild dog". She took the bath. I guess there's a market for these halfhearted Disney classic "part 2" direct-to-video disasters, but it sure makes me appreciate efforts like "The Emperor's New Groove" and all of the Pixar movies that much more.
Rating: Summary: Hmmm... Review: This is slightly hard to rate. I enjoyed it, but, I guess some would say I'm a die-hard Disney fan. They do a great job of keeping up continuity here, it makes an almost seamless transaction...minus one flaw(Buster...where was he in the first if he was such a big person in Tramp's life??). The characters are enjoyable enough, the best one in my personal opinion being Danielle, the dorky, goofy, funny sister. The animation is spectacular on almost all acounts, running smoothly from scene-to-scene. Voice-overs weren't done as great as the rest of the film, though. Jeff Bennett, the voice of 'Tramp', didn't quite go with the voice in the previous film, and Scott Wolf sounded a bit weaker than intended. Alyssa Milano was alright...but not amazing. The best portrayed of all are Lady, Colette, and Danielle... Kath Soucie gives life to the two girl pups, and Jodi Benson does a good Lady. The plot is simple enough - tired of rules, a young, teenage kid runs away. But hey - think of the audience here. What 5 year-old wants a complex Matrix movie?
Rating: Summary: no Peggy Lee, too much pop music = stepping over the line Review: I didn't think that Disney was going too far with its Disneys sequels until this one was made. Why? becuase it is the first film from Walt Disney's time to get sequel format. i'm sorry but that is seriously insulting one of the greatest animators to ever live but I was curious. The film was too preachy on the basis of 'hanging out with the right dogs'. But once they started singing pop songs, I went beserk! The original Lady and the Tramp had the Mellow Men and Peggy Lee. Lady, Tramp, Jock, and Trusty were spotlight characters in the original. I was also confused. If Scamp is supposed to be a puppy why does he sound so much like Scott Wolf (HAHAHAHAHA!) Anyway yeah the preachiness and pop music placed this at the bottom,and the fact that Lady had been voiced by Jodie Benson (dont worry you'll be hearing her voice in plenty more cheapquels)

Rating: Summary: Not as bad as it seems... Review: To all you people who think Buster's such a bad guy, give him some credit, will ya?! Yeah, the movie wasn't the most eye catching, but why is it that dobermans are ALWAYS portrayed so badly? From all the dobermans that I've ever met, they ARE "good, decent, and kind". And as for Buster being against the rules of 'no housedogs' in the gang, why can't we get any info on HIS background? He probably had some bad past due to being a housedog. Ok, enough of me rambling on. I could do this all day...
Rating: Summary: I shall take a stand Review: I love this movie. Some stupid people who put bad review are the lamest jerks I know.

Who ever you bad people who wrote thoser awful reveiws, GROW UP!!!!!!!!!
