The Greenwoods decide to bring Elvis along on a camping vacation on the shores of the Pacific Northwest, where they link up with their old friend Randolph (August Schel-lenberg, also reprising his role). If that's not enough, he also meets his young half-brother for the first time - a tough-talking, embittered kid who is prone to exaggeration, and whose name is Elvis (Francis Capra).

And, as a 14-year-old entering adolescence, he's settling into suburbia and beginning to notice girls.īut he gets a stability check when word arrives that his estranged mother has died. Our human hero, Jesse (again played by Jason James Richter), is no longer as lonely and angry as he was in the first film, having been taken in by the Greenwoods (Michael Madsen and Jayne Atkinson reprising their roles). Familiarity doesn't breed contempt for children the way it does for movie critics. Kids - the primarily audience for this picture - probably won't mind, however. If you've seen 'Free Willy,' you've seen 'Free Willy 2.' With a few adjustments here and there, this sequel is essentially a remake.
