I didn't expect much, given that it's a kids movie and the DVD came free with instant tea, but this was just awful.
It's a retarded, poor cousin of Home Alone. The script is tragically stupid, the acting is horrible. In fact - the dog is the best actor on this thing. I am a kind of masochist not to turn it off before it ended. Every scene I wondered - could it be any dumber? And yes, it could. It just got worse and worse every minute.
I liked French Steward in 3rd Rock From The Sun. Here he just acts like a cartoon. Screaming like an idiot while chasing the kid... Plus - his two interchangeable sidekicks as cartoonish as he is.
Plus, a major plot hole: a Labrador lives for 10+ years. The kid is about 12? And he mourns his dog that passed away of old age. His sister is about 16. And she's allergic to dogs. So the parents tormented one of their children since she was 6 or so to fulfill their other child's request. Way to go, mum and dad!
Saying that the kids will like it is just wrong. Mark my words: treat your children like morons and they'll grow up to be morons.
