This movie isn't bad, this goes beyond bad. This film is so bad, so utterly putrid, it falls off my list of horrific movies and down into the dark hellish depths of oblivion. What's wrong with this movie? What's right with this movie!! There are so many damningly bad things with this film that you'd probably have trouble counting them.
The first and main problem is in the title, 'Timmy to the Rescue'. Why in God's name is Timmy the hero of this movie when he was essentially the main problem of the last one?! In Secret of Nimh 1, Timmy had Pneumonia which meant he couldn't go outside of their bottle which mean that Mrs Brisby couldn't move the family which meant that she had to go through all that trouble to protect this trouble-making little horror!
Following that, these people are the biggest bunch of hypocrites that ever walked the Earth. In the beginning of the movie, Timmy is bigged up to be this real prophesy, so from the very start he is weighed on hand and foot and has every wish granted whilst they throw parades for him, only in later life they call him arrogant and full of himself. Oh dear, I wonder why? Could it possibly be because you spent the whole of his childhood bigging him up into this right old hero?
Also in one scene, a very large and obviously bloodthirsty snake is approaching the valley. Timmy blows the snake away with a weather balloon, only to get told off for losing the weather balloon and lectured on how the valley is safe enough. Hold on a second, Did you fail to see that angry snake coming at the Valley? Or were you looking in the other direction? Either way, you should be grovelling to this kid for saving your dead end life rather than doing him down!
The next and biggest problem is the story of Martin. Possibly the most controversial part of this film is Martin's capture and transformation into the main villain. First problem, they don't show us or tell us how and when he was taken by Nimh. We only find out when the girl tells Timmy that the person sharing the cell next to her in Nimh years earlier was Martin. So when was he captured? How was he captured? And more importantly, how come nobody told Timmy this had happened?! Does news not travel in Thorn Valley or was he too busy being a God on Earth he didn't notice that part?
And the rest is an abominable mess that I don't even bother questioning because it's just a waste of my time and yours! This film isn't enjoyable for kids and certainly not for adults as it will call your sanity into question! Steer well clear folks! And I mean, very well clear!!
