Chroniques et points de vue:From :Filled with a few imaginative moments and a child actor who looks like a miniaturized Sharon Stone,
ll isn't as neverending as the third headache in the series, but it's not on par with the original. Versions of Atreyu, the brave warrior, Rockbiter, and Falcor, that flying, pink, poodle-dragon, return to travel across the storybook world of Fantasia. This time our protagonist and reader, Bastian, is actually in the story the entire time instead of looking on from outside the pages. The interaction doesn't help, as it's the same crisis and the same story line (well, okay, he
is reading the same book), but at least the film is not as unrelentingly melancholy as the first one either. Children may be frightened by the 'giants,' large dung beetles on two legs, that threaten our heroes.

Better than the first by far!
The first movie was one of my favorite movies of all time, I watched it all the time...but I thought the Batian in it was SOOOOOOOOOOO bad. He was to quite. On this movie, the Bastian is way better and the story is also way better, just like in the book, the second half was better than the first. Xyidea (sorry if I mispelled it) is a much better enemy than the nothing or the wold. She actully is one of hose enmy who befriends the main character and tricks him, and almost persuades him to do things bad, when he doesnt even realize he is doing it. So if you want a better, but more complicated (not for adults , but more complicated than the first was for younger children) then this is the one, Is much better than the first, but I love both.

Depressing sequel
The first movie was interesting, but this just gets weird. Pretty bad acting by most involved too, including the main kid. Corny lines don't help much either.
"Letrayel...get real!"
"I am real."
[Bad laugh track]
This is truly the movie that never ends.

* Shoddy Sequel ...
I've seen all the series and a book. First one is no doubt a masterpiece but second one is quite a failure. This is based on the second half of the story and has more important message than the first half where the first movie is based. According to the book Bastian is so charmed by fantasy world and keep making wish he forgets even who he is and how to get back to the world he belongs. This movie however is following similar steps to the first one (what is the difference between "nothing and emptyness"?) forgetting what has to be done. Artrayu this series is closer to the book I think. Second one is more forgettable than the third which has tried original story. Because it is better to read a book. But Neverending Story has more future if the directors shed the effort to start from scratch. Let Miyazaki do the series.

I think the original was better.
This movie wasn't as good as the original but I still enjoy watching it.

* Should have left well enough alone. ...
Even if you were able to tolerate the first one after reading the (fabulous) book, the fact that you could even make it through this one is beyond amazing. I walked out of the theater when Neverending II was first released, but thought that maybe it might just be my snobbish teenage mind - only to find out while giving this a second shot on DVD that is was as horrid as I remembered. If sequels must be made, at least *try* to find someone who looks like the orginal screen play characters. The acting is poor to say the least, the story patchy. They desperately tried to capture the magic of the book and the parts of the story line that were left out of the first movie. They failed. If you must watch a film version of this otherwise fantastic story, go with the 1st film. In this case, first times a charm. Anything else is a curse.
