Xixo is back again. This time, his children accidentally stow away on a fast-moving poachers' truck, unable to get off, and Xixo sets out to rescue them.

Lack of good storyline.
disgusting, overrated, pointless
Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
The Gods Must Be Crazy II is a fun film for all, lighthearted and lovable.The main highlights for me are Xixo and the his kids finding each other with so much elation and the skunk with Hans Strydom, he is really annoyed by it but cares about it at the same time. On the negative, I don't think the soldiers were great, but not impactfully so.
The Gods Must Be Crazy II. Movie takes you again into the wild yet simple world of Xixo played efficiently by N!xau and how simple mistakes turn into the hilarious situations. The whole writing is filled with funny ideas and conversations which are simple and touching and director handles the things with an easy hand making you laugh and care at the same time and how he gets the best work from animals in the jungle. Lena Farugia playing beautiful Dr. Ann Taylor is always into the center of the problems and does an astounding job. There are many funny moments like scenes involving the tiny twin engine plane, Ann fighting with monkeys over a glass of water and my favorite Hans Strydom's love hate relationship with a wild creature who is stuck to his boot. I am going with good 7 out of 10 for The Gods Must Be Crazy II. I bet you have not seen such a funny and touching comedy over the wild world of Africa.
A very fine followup to The Gods Must Be Crazy. The scenes of the lost children trying to find their way back are really the best part of the film, and their reunion with each other and their father will tug your heartstrings - in a good way. The rest of the hijinks are silly and funny - when the opposing soldiers are forced at gunpoint to hold hands, for example, it's a treat. Animals, inanimate objects, and people all play parts in the comedy, just as in life. Altogether very entertaining and one of my favorite comedies of all time.
Too many story lines to make this as good as the first one, but it's still a delight. The kids are charming, and the female lead is a wonderful physical comedienne. A pity Jamie Uys didn't make more movies.
