My Review:
My children and I really enjoyed watching the first MAX movie! We were super excited when we heard about "Max2: White House Hero." Max 2 is more child friendly, and more family friendly too. This movie is more about the president's son and a Russian girl who is visiting with her family who escape from the white house and they are almost kidnapped. The two children team up together to try to find the people who kidnapped them and they end up in trouble and being separated. Then the president's family and the Russian father and daughter go on a rafting trip and someone sprays something on the raft to cause it to blow a hole in the side of it part way through their rafting trip, which risks everyone's lives. Max comes through and saves the Russian girl, Alex's life.

The president's husband puts on a show for the Russian president and both children get locked inside of a wood container. As this is going on, Max sees one of the bad guys who tried to kidnap the children and chases him above the stage where he is using a knife to cut down a chandelier to hurt the president's wife. T.J. and Alex get out of the wood box, but since no one seems safe, the Russian president decided to take his daughter and head home.

T.J. figures out who is trying to cause issues between the American president and Russian president and the person traps him so he can't get out and tell anyone. Max saves T.J. and tells everyone that Alex is in terrible danger. Max helps save Alex!

This movie is adventurous, fun and heart warming. Great movie for a family movie night!
