Movies We Watch

A happy dog film. No dogs die in this film. No tears were shed, though I did choke up when they were all put in the pound.

This unrealistic romp about 5 teens and the dozens of dogs they save from the pound and certain death was sweet. The youngest kid was an engineer and problem solver of major proportions and would be swept up by any company that could hire an 11 year old. The dogs were happy, the kids were happy, and the dog catchers were evil incarnate as well as goofy foils for any visual prank.

Sweet, silly, unrealistic, with cute dog faces by the dozens. And quite the performances by Lisa Kudrow and Kevin Dillon.

Watch out for the french kissing though, so much tongue, and so wet and sloppy. Ewwww.
