🎬 Mousehunt 2 (2025)
👉 Nathan Lane, Lee Evans, Vicki Lewis
A mansion full of promise. A fortune waiting to be claimed. And one tiny tenant determined to ruin it all. Mousehunt 2 revives Gore Verbinski’s beloved slapstick comedy, bringing back the chaos, the charm, and the relentless rivalry between man and mouse.
Nathan Lane and Lee Evans return as the endlessly unlucky Smuntz brothers, Ernie and Lars. When they inherit their late father’s crumbling estate, they imagine riches, prestige, and a chance to finally make something of themselves. The catch? A single mouse — clever, crafty, and impossibly resilient — has made the mansion its kingdom.
What begins as a routine extermination quickly spirals into a war of absurd proportions. Every trap they set backfires spectacularly, every scheme collapses in catastrophic fashion. Floors cave in, contraptions run amok, and entire rooms are reduced to rubble as the brothers battle an opponent no bigger than their fists but ten times smarter than their best plans. The harder they fight, the more the mouse turns their inheritance into a house of horrors — and a playground of comedy.
Vicki Lewis joins the chaos with razor-sharp timing, adding fuel to the fire as the brothers’ antics grow increasingly desperate. Under Verbinski’s inventive eye, the film once again blends physical gags, clever visual storytelling, and a touch of cartoon logic that transforms a simple pest problem into an epic war of wits.
At its heart, Mousehunt 2 is more than pratfalls and punchlines. It’s a celebration of determination, absurdity, and the universal truth that sometimes the biggest challenges come in the smallest packages. Hilarious, chaotic, and endlessly inventive, it proves that when it comes to survival — size doesn’t matter, but brains do.
