Short Circuit 2 (Widescreen/Full Screen)

Strapped for cash, Ben Jahrvi, co-creator of Johnny 5, is pushed into the manufacturing business, making little Johnny replicas. This movie contains a love interest (Sandy), and economics. The action comes from when they leave Johnny (you guessed it) home alone. He is bamboozled by petty crooks, and abducted by ruthless people because someone wants the warehouse access.
So will Sandy and Ben get past they awkward stage? (Can Johnny help?)
Will Johnny Five be recovered?
Or will Number five lead his now life of crime?


Best movie ever!!!   May 14, 2004
This movie should be re-released for the next generation of older kids. The robot in this movie was really cute.

Short Circuit 2   February 21, 2004
I love this movie and I watch it at least once a week. This Movie is next best to owning Johnny 5. I wish I could own J-5, but do not have the Big Bucks to by him even if he is real. The only thing wrong with this movie is some of the bad language, so I just fast forward some of the scences. I wish they would make more movies using Johnny 5, I would like to see Ben & Sandy get married and J-5 as the Best Man. My Husband & I rent DVD's and have kept this Movie since Oct., so I thought I better buy it, so I can return the rental to get to watch other DVD's. Great Movie that could be even better without the bad language...


Great!   March 30, 2003
This movie has been my favorite movie for years. In the first movie Number 5 or Johnny 5 was viewed more as a prop than a character. I'm not dissing the first movie!... In Short Circuit 2, Johnny 5 knows he is alive, but he struggles throughout the film trying to prove it to the rest of the world.
There are many emotion through out the film. Most of it is just humor!

Short Circuit 2 is a hollywood triumph. The first one was good, but this is one of the rarities in the world of sequels that is not just as good as the original, it's better! It's got everything that every other sequel should;
He comes to New York and starts building miniature models of himself.
Helps his friend/creator guy with his love life by controlling an electronic sign.
Accidentally helps jewel thieves tunnel into a bank.
And is the first hang-gliding robot in movie history.

What's not to like? There will never ever be a movie quite like Short Circuit 2. It's funny, dramatic, action-packed (complete with car chase), and of course, heartwarming...
