I love the first Brave Little Toaster, and saw both its sequels The Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue and The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars. Both are rather bland in comparison, but both are watchable unlike some of the other animated sequels I've seen.
Its problems are actually similar to the first sequel's. It is too short, and the story is rather predictable and rushed despite the quite nice ending. The songs are on the forgettable and unnecessary side too, the one at the beginning especially is the epitome of sap. Also it is lacking the eerie yet compelling, touching quality the original has.
However, apart from some characters being re-designed and looking rather strange and off-model, the animation is not too bad. The backgrounds are decent enough as are the colours. The writing isn't as strong, but there are some humorous and poignant ones which I appreciated. The characters are still likable, and the voice actors do do very well, even the new-comers and replacements.
All in all, a bland sequel, but not a bad one. 5/10 Bethany Cox
