Max 2: White House Hero is a safe movie for families and in particular, kids probably 10 and under as the jokes and violence are Disney-esque. No, it’s not very good and if you’re an adult, this might be tough to sit through.

A highly sensitive mission will out Max’s specialized skills, intelligence and loyalty to the test. |
SPECIAL FEATURES – 2.0/5 |
|
This release comes with a matted slip cover. Inside is a DVD Copy and redemption code for the Digital HD copy.

VIDEO – 4.0/5 |
| Warner Home Video takes Max 2 of the leash, presenting the movie with a 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer. No surprise here, this direct-to-video movie looks decent enough providing sharp detail throughout and being a kid’s movie, plenty of bright colors to pop off the small screen. |
AUDIO – 4.0/5 |
| The included DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track is more than adequate with crisp and clear dialogue levels and when there is action, as well as the generic family-comedy score, the other channels show a bit of life as do the rear channels for some minor ambient noises. |
OVERALL – 2.5/5 |
|
Overall, Max 2: White House Hero is a safe movie for families and in particular, kids probably 10 and under as the jokes and violence are Disney-esque. No, it’s not very good and if you’re an adult, this might be tough to sit through. The Blu-ray released by Warner Home Video offers good video/audio transfers while the features are thin. |
