Thenon physical humour is mostly poo, pee or snot based stuff aimed squarely atyounger kids.

The movies premise is that if you wear a magical ancient mask, it will cause you to behave in strange ways.

Between Son of the Mask and Malibus Most Wanted Kennedy has ruined all of the potential I saw in him after the Scream movies.
Cinema Blend
1.0
Hardly, this sequel to the 1994 Jim Carrey flick THE MASK should have been snuffed out in the drawing room.
Tv Guide

A transparently minimal effort in which many jokes and pivotal plot points are grossly inappropriate for children.

Not returning (surprise, surprise) are the originals Jim Carrey and then newcomer Cameron Diaz.This sequel is quite a comedown.

I hesitate to call the film good, because its still carelessly written, but it has bursts of semi animated antics that may please youngsters.

Or the gut wrenchingly yucky moral messages piled on at the end.Staggeringly awful.

But Guterman is largely unable to translate the surreal violence and outsized characters of classic animation into modern day, live action filmmaking.
Film Journal

This sequel has been a long time coming since the 1994 Jim Carrey hit, and thankfully its a bright, fast, kiddie oriented lark with US TV comic Jamie ..

Its a concept that would probably appeal to anyone who thought that dancing baby was actually funny instead of just plain creepy.
Mountain X

Since Kennedys flatly ironic white boy gyrations arent enough to carry the movie, everyone in sight gets a shot at masked transformation.
Ew

Long overdue sequels featuring none of the original cast are not usually worth the wait.
Empire
1.0
This movie is dumb and loud, which some children will confuse with entertaining but others will just find overwhelming.

The first film was disappointing enough, lacking much of the maniacal and bloody lunacy of the original comic, about a mask that transforms its wearer ..

Even Cummings slyly subversive Scottish humor is lost under a pile of costume changes and a flat American accent.
Washington Post

But youngsters will suffer no lasting harm from this frantic, grating spectacle.

As such, it is more inoffensively innocuous than most viewers will likely be expecting.
The Movie Boy
1.0
Alan Cumming is far too talented to be slumming it in this piece of rubbish and Jamie Kennedy has none of the charm of Jim Carrey.

The original film lightened up the story from its dementedly dark comic book origins.

If this sounds more like a horror movie than a family matinee to you, then you obviously dont work for New Line Cinema,

Oh, there are characters swerving around this film like so many bumper cars at an amusement park.But theres nothing of any substance.
7M Pictures
2.5
With so many cuts a second, all attention goes into following the visuals. Just as well, since the story leaves so little to work with.

If this movie doesnt exceed Alone in the Dark for pure awfulness, it at least matches it.

The film is a truly unnecessary sequel to a film that stood well enough on its own.
