    After having found a magic locket which shows the kingdom of Atlantica, Melody decides to run away from home and find the truth behind it.

However, Ursula's crazy sister, Morgana, intends to take control over the entire ocean.

    Like all the others...
    Very few Disney sequels ever come close to the quality of the original, and this is probably why so many of them come directly to video. This film is no exception. The story is okay, but the characters are boring, and you learn to hate Melody after a few really, really stupid moves on her part.

    It's not as bad as The Return of the Jafar, but not close to as good as The Lion King II: Simba's Pride or Aladdin and the King of Thieves or even Pocahontas II. Of course, none of these compare to the quality of Toy Story 2, which notably went to theaters and is actually better than the first one.

    You can really afford to miss this film.
