Where to Watch My Magical Friend Sams
- MaxFebruary 15, 2026A very enjoyable sequel, even though it takes a few more liberties compared to the original books than I would have personally liked. As an adaptation, it doesn’t feel quite as faithful — but if you judge it on its own, it’s still a really fun and charming movie. There are plenty of moments to laugh at, and the humor definitely works overall. That said, at times it feels a bit too silly and slightly forced in its attempts to be funny. The first film had a much better balance in that regard. Even so, it is a sequel that once again transported me straight back to my childhood — and that alone makes it absolutely worth watching.
