When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Cannot see what all the fuss was about with parents complaining. Sure their kids have seen worse in some adverts or sitcoms. Highly recommended for a good laugh. Must see.
. . . with minimal scatology and gross-out humor (unlike its frequently-referenced police dog predecessor flick, TURNER & HOOCH)? Slobber and drool are more scarce than mid-desert daiquiris during SHOW DOGS. Obviously, all the masses attacking America's beloved canine population with their scathing comments and abysmal ratings for SHOW DOGS are parched for drool and slobber. However, I think that it's very unfair to denigrate SHOW DOGS just because it doesn't slake your thirst for slobber and drool. The sort of folks who disrespect the USA's valiant K-9 troops who lead their jack-booted masters into the rural or urban dens of drug iniquity as part of joint task force interdictions (which usually target the correct addresses, and if there's a mistake and Granny gets her throat ripped out by a Police Rottweiler like SHOW DOGS' hero Max, that's on the faulty intel CI's or the pranksters S.W.A.T.ING Granny--it's NOT the fault of our misdirected hypothetical jugular-shredding Fido!) are the same miscreants encouraging the renegade Philadelphia Eagles to kneel or pump raised fists during our National Anthem and boycott the White House! Whether the line is Blue or Red, it's always thin, and needs the full support of every Patriotic American. Leave the slobber and drool to the Fat Cat feline folks, SHOW DOGS urges, and support your local mastiff.
Back in 2002, I watched Raja Gosnell's film, "Scooby-Doo".... and I just loved it! At this point, I've seen all the movies he's directed. I like family films, especially ones with dogs. Generally, the consensus about his movies hasn't been very favorable. I have nothing to complain about, though. I knew what I was getting into when I bought the ticket for this movie. I knew it wouldn't be the funniest movie I'd see this year. I knew there'd be talking dogs, and fart jokes, and kiddie humor. But you know what? I enjoy these kind of movies. Nobody assumes they'll be award winning, or something to make you think. Sometimes you just want to watch something funny, and for me, this did the trick. I liked it for what it was. (It also helps that I love dogs, and I'm sure Mr. Gosnell does, too!) Will Arnett does his usual schtick, Stanley Tucci is hilarious, and I was surprised to see Natasha Lyonne (I haven't seen her on the big screen in years)! I enjoyed this movie, and I think other people (especially dog lovers) would, too.
Catching up on episodes of Screen Junkies News,I was intrigued to hear about a wonderfully weird-sounding family flick. As the eps went on,I was surprised to learn that the film was being re-cut,due to a scene being "controversial" Reading comments,I found out that the film was actually still being screened uncut in the UK.With cinemas being filled of blockbusters (and Solo) at the moment,I went expecting to be the lone viewer,but found the screening packed with families and older teens, only a handful of tickets left,which led to me seeing the best in show.View on the film:Continuing his "oeuvre" of talking dog movies, director Raja Gosnell & cinematographer David Mackie give the flick a breezy, family friendly atmosphere of slap-stick farting dog gags for the kids, and light spoofing of the dog show/fashion events (such as a pointed gag on specialist breeding for best in shows.) for adults. Putting CGI faces over real animals, Gosnell makes the blending look impressively smooth,with Max's somersaults being very stylish, and the action scenes being given a bone-chewing crunch by Gosnell by keeping all the car chases and paw-fighting at the camera level of the animals.Taking the fur of Miss Congeniality'with a heist,the screenplay by Max Botkin and Marc Hyman take the film for a great,bonkers walkies of all the animals being able to speak and understand English perfectly (!) and humans at least being somewhat aware of this,with Max being given the full details to the case by police officer Frank. Surprisingly not going too sickly sweet with the message of respecting choices people (or in this case,animals) dedicate their lives to (with the soon to be cut scenes being where Max realises how dedicated others are to the dog show.) The writers bring a warmth to Frank (a likeable Will Arnett) and Max's (voiced by a ruff and ready Ludacris) friendship by continuing with the weirdness of both of them almost being able to chat to each other,and planning how to stop the heist like buddy cops,and set their sights on showing the show dogs whose boss.
