Following on from the plot of the last movie, babies can communicate with each other using 'baby talk', and have an innate knowledge of the secrets of the universe. The baby geniuses become involved in a scheme by media mogul Bill Biscane (Jon Voight). Helping the geniuses is a legendary superbaby named Kahuna. He joins up with several other babies in an attempt to stop Biscane, who intends to use a state-of-the-art satellite system to control the world's population.

Entertainment Weekly

The film's moral? Turn off the TV, young 'uns, and go outside and play! And avoid Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2 matinees while you're at it.

Washington Post by Michael O'Sullivan

So bad that I predict there will be drinking games set around viewing it someday.

Variety

Falls short on nearly every level, from production values to an inexplicable cameo by Whoopi Goldberg.

The New York Times by Dave Kehr

Villainy toward the infant class now comes from Jon Voight, descending to the depths of his 37-year-career.

Dallas Observer by Jean Oppenheimer

The first Baby Geniuses, released in 1999, was one of the most inane, humorless, ill-conceived, poorly acted comedies of the year. As difficult as it is to imagine, the sequel is even worse, earning an F.
