What they share
Both films are directed by Peter Lepeniotis, and they sit in Adventure / Animation / Comedy / Family territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Nut Job, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Gnome Alone is
Statuesque neighbors with alarmingly rigid personalities soon reveal their roles in an underground war against subterranean monsters. After Chloe stumbles upon the miniature militia next door she must choose between blending into high school or enlisting in an all-garden defense force. The gnomes are delightfully stubborn about teamwork.
