What everyone else said: This is no Pee Wee's Big Adventure, but it's good enough.

Does not approach the greatness of PEE-WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE, but it's still amusing for Pee-wee fans. Oh, and Pee-wee gets laid in this one, er, yeah.

Mediocre. Tim Burton, director of "Pee-Wee's Big Adventure", is sorely missed here.

An enjoyable boy's fantasy, well-realized with some real charm. Call it a guilty pleasure . . . but I certainly wish that Paul Ruebens could succeed in his efforts to pull another Pee Wee movie together.

Another shit. It is not funny, is irritating.

Loses points for taking us out of Pee Wee's normally insane world as we follow him hanging out with a a bunch of stranded circus freaks. You're left with a pretty average comedy lacking both the quality and quantity of gags seen in the first movie.

It's funny, it's crazy, it's weird, it's a Burton.

While a classic from my childhood, that I watched over and over and over again as a kid, I'm not sure if this has an audience today.

Saw it in the theaters when I was seven, hated it. Saw it on videotape when I was 13, still hated it. Saw it on cable as an adult, yup, hated it. I like Paul Reubens and his Pee-Wee character a lot to this day, I just get the feeling that he was way over his head making this one. No, I don't think Tim Burton directing would have mattered.

Missing the first films charm, and some of this is downright creepy.

For those of you that didn't find the first installment weird or creepy enough, this sequel should satisfy. It's not as good as the first one in terms of quality or story, but it's not bad.

It's not as good as Big Adventure but just to have another Pee Wee feature film was incredible!

Pee-wee's always funny, but Randal Kleiser doesn't know what to do with him.

It's Pee Wee, but with nothing that made "Big Adventure" and "Playhouse" great!
