Storyline Stuart's mother is being over-protective of him, especially when he narrowly escapes injury in a soccer game. His big brother George has also made a new friend, Will, so Stuart is feeing lonely. Stuart rescues a canary, Margalo, from a falcon; she moves in with the Littles. One day, Margalo is nowhere to be found, so Stuart and Snowbell set out across the city to find her while George covers for Stuart (the first time he's had to lie).

User Review
A Truly Nice Film
Rating: 9/10
I liked this better than the original, and that''s a high compliment
because I thought highly of the original film: Stuart Little. As good
as that was, I just thought this was even better.
All the voice-overs are excellent with Nathan Lane having the best
lines as "Snowball," the cat. He was simply hilarious, line after line.
The film once again features great colors, a virtual rainbow of them,
especially with some of the inventive rooms in the Little house. The
parents, once again, are super nice. It's a treat to watch Geena Davis
and Hugh Laurie play an old- fashioned "Leave It To Beaver"-type
couple. The film has no objectionable material and leaves you with a
nice feeling. There are animated films or animated/real life
combinations like this, that advertise "family-friendly viewing" but
don't really deliver, instead sneaking in sexual innuendos and the
like.
Not here. This one is pure, morals-wise, except for one scene near the
end when the mom (Geena Davis) tells Stuart and their son she's still
proud of them even though they just got caught in a big lie. (Inferring
that the lie was okay since everything turned out okay.) Other than
that, nothing but good messages were heard and seen all around and this
is a funny movie, to boot. Highly recommended for the family, and
that's no cliché.
