Amazon.com:
The 1979 sequel to The Apple Dumpling Gang reunites Tim Conway and Don Knotts as thieves with hearts of gold, this time helping out a soldier (Tim Matheson) whose commander (Harry Morgan) is being undermined by a villainous lieutenant. The film is for kids, but the adult-heavy plot takes this movie in a different direction than its predecessor, which focused on three adorable orphans. The slapstick comedy is good, and supporting cast, Morgan, Matheson, Ruth Buzzi and Jack Elam, are enjoyable, but the freshness of the first film is missing. --Tom Keogh
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Was there a little bit missing in this movie?
Whilst millions of people (and I am definately one of them) enjoy the brilliant comedy of Don Knotts and Tim Conway, I feel that there was a little bit missing between them in this movie, whereas in the original version of Apple Dumpling Gang the 'thing' was there all the time.
Rating:  - Priceless Comedy
Lighthearted fun with Tim Conway and Don Knotts. A barrel of laughs for those who love comedy.
Rating: - Great Family Fare
Tim Conway and Don Knotts are delightful in this wonderful family film. Its humor is timeless and fun and kids and adults alike will delight in it. No, it's not an animated spectacular like so many family flicks these days, but it's a welcome escape from so many of the contemporary films that seem bent on outdoing each other. Its innocent, straightforward humor and loveable characters make it a real classic.
Rating: - Wonderful kids movie!
A wonderful kids movie! I've loved this movie since the day it was released, and I feel it's still a cut above the current crop of movies being marketed to kids.
Enjoy!
Rating: - Not as good as the first
Funny but not as good as the first one. Don and Tim are still very good together and I enjoyed it but not as much as I did the first one. I suppose thats not an uncommon statement to make about sequels though.
