When a professor develops a vaccine that eliminates human allergies to dogs, he unwittingly upsets the fragile balance of power between cats and dogs and touches off an epic battle for pet supremacy. The fur flies as the feline faction, led by Mr. Tinkles, squares off against wide-eyed puppy Lou and his canine cohorts.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

In my honest opinion, this film is really good. Good acting, great CGI for 2001, a good premise, great voice cast, and even a decent story. I will be honest and say that the story is very generic and may actually come off as a little kiddy sometimes. The whole movie is also extremely biased against cats as the whole film is pretty much about how cats are evil and should be stopped, which may or may not upset viewers who have cats. Besides all that, this film was still good enough for me to thoroughly enjoy it. I think this film is a lot better than what other people say about it. It's a cute, light-hearted comedy that everyone would probably enjoy. I recommend this film to anyone who loves dogs, or any pets for that matter.

This film is about secret agent dogs who do everything in their power to protect a professor's experimental cure from a group of evil cats who want to steal this cure."Cats & Dogs" is a kids film, so I have adjusted my expectations to suit the target audience. For a kids' film, "Cats & Dogs" has good production and an exciting plot. I am sure children will love the cute animals, James Bond style gadgets and the flurry of action.However, there is little to entertain the adults who have to sit through the film with children. There is no hidden moral message either. If these points could be improved, "Cats & Dogs" would have been a true family film.

In the town of comic book land there is a home that lives the lonely young boy without a friend. Until one day Lou the Beagle puppy arrives on the scene.Set around the game of espionage, with similar themes to Mission: Impossible, James Bond and to a great extent Austin Powers; Cats and Dogs animates the spy game with great bravado and even greater humour. This is a stylish and extremely witty parody that has the cat world fighting for world domination and to see dogs put in their place, outside in the doghouse, where humans would, as is the cat's goal, be allergic to the canine breed and thus welcoming the feline race into their homes.This is a high octane fun and friendly family movie that is built around the life of young Scotty (Alexander Pollock) and his scientist father (Jeff Goldblum) who whilst working too hard at trying to make a breakthrough for a cure to prevent dog allergies in humans. Unaware of his neglect, young Scotty, as too his parents, is completely oblivious to the fact that the parallel world that revolves around them is in great danger of crossing the divide of talking animals and dumb humans.Cats and Dogs is more than puppets meet Muppets; it is more than that, even though just as entertaining, it has progressed to greater levels. If you want to see Mr. Tinkles, the white Persian, that strangely resembles the white cat seen in the Bond and Austin Powers movies, giving his orders, over a grand table and log fire in his mansion. If you want to see secret agent dogs fighting Devon Rex's ninja style, a knife throwing Russian Blue hair-balling big style and a gigantic army of mice reading an instruction manual, all at once, on how to concur the world then this is the movie for you.With an intelligent and comical script, good sets and capable staff, such as Tobey Maguire, Alec Baldwin, Jon Lovitz, Michael Clark Duncan, Susan Sarandon and the great cinema legend Charlton Heston in the limelight, some very good special effects and plenty of spills and action, you really cannot go wrong.This is your typical laugh a minute family day in at the movies, and whichever side you cheer for, you are always guaranteed to end up stroking that funny bone until well after your sides ache.

When I saw the trailer I thought, "that will be a great movie!" I read critics all the time complain about a filmmaker not taking a film to its full potential. I usually don't think that, but I did with this film.It was still fun, but it seems to have been written is such a hurry that they didn't put into it even 10% of what they could have. It's a shame, because now you couldn't do a film with the same premise without coming off as a copy-cat (and dog). I get the feeling that the writer wasn't an animal person. Oh, well, maybe in time this one will be forgotten and someone will re-do it with its full potential.
