Synopsis

Once upon a time, the prince of kingdom Hauptman-Koenig was deeply in love with the farmer's daughter Jessie. But his mother didn't approve this and cursed her to stiffen to a statue for 1000 years. Now, almost 1000 years later, she's brought to a department store for an exhibition. Unknowingly trainee Jason, who remarkably looks like the prince, removes the necklace that keeps her bewitched and awakes her. She immediately insists that he's the love of her life... and he takes over the sweet task to introduce her to the comforts of modern civilization. But there's still another person who has a claim on her and tries to use the spell to manipulate her.

Critics' reviews

"There are far too many script misfires and built-in flat tires (every time the bodybuilding trio shows up the film dies) to overcome."

Henry Sheehan: Chicago Reader
"'Mannequin 2' is breathlessly funny and blessedly unassuming comedic nonsense."

TV Guide
"Unfortunately, the recycled plot is still the driving force here, and the movie becomes increasingly frantic trying to accommodate it. In the end, Raffill can't bring this dummy to life, but he does try."

John Hartl: Seattle Times
"This film has enough new characters and independent spirit to have a light, cheery style of its own."

Janet Maslin: The New York Times
"Things are generally cute in the film -- and that goes for the stars -- and it all chugs along in some curious bubblegum-chewing sort of way. But the flavor's decidedly flat."

Peter Stack: SFgate
"'Mannequin Two' desperately wants to be magical. But the spell it casts is one of idiocy."

Susan Wloszczyna: rogerebert.com
"Despite the presence of four credited screenwriters, the plot is a rehash of cliches and tired jokes. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"

Empire
"Raffill's heavy-handed direction is jam-packed with product placement, and interrupted every ten seconds with yet another plug for a boring MOR rock song."
