... View MoreIdeal film for children and adults alike to watch has good humour don't give the low star rating a reason not to watch this film.. it's full of laughs and giggles throughout the whole film..
... View MoreI was just about to go see it the first weekend when I read some bad reviews. I didnt want to be disapoointed. My little papillon dog looks like mine. Weeks later I took the whole family (4 generations) to see this film. Either the reviewers didn't have dogs or they didn't have kids. It was laugh out loud funny to the 4-7 year old bunch and the 67 year old great grandma. Everyone in between loved it too. It is a show we will have to buy. I think Alvin and the Chipmunks got the same dissing. And that was one funny film!
... View MoreIt's not a masterpiece yet it's fun for a 9 yo who adores dogs and enjoys every dog movie he encounters.
... View MoreMax, an NYPDog, must go undercover in a Dog Show to bring a gang of animal smugglers to justice. He gets partnered with an incompetent FBI agent as his handler.Yep - it's another live action, talking dogs movie where the animals (and most of the women) are a lot smarter than the men. There are enough laughs in it to keep both the children and the parents amused. It does make fun of itself too. Most of the other user reviews are highly polarised between 1s and 10s but I think the truth is in between.There were news articles around at launch time that two scenes were going to be cut because they might, 'normalise groping.' When I watched the movie in the UK well after launch those scenes seemed to be still in it. In a dog show a vet will check all the animal's assets from teeth to tail and Max has to stay calm while the medic confirms that he's still got his nuts. The movie, 'Best in Show,' has the same gag and I don't think children will necessarily understand why it's funny. So; something else for you parents to explain, but hey: you're used to that.I liked: the animation, the cute pooches, the tiger and the out-takes at the end. I didn't like: The pigeons plus there are parts of the movie that have some extremely tight editing, the dialogue is too fast and any joke is thrown away.If you're a dog person add 1 point. If you're a cat person subtract 2 points.
