Moderate comedy, mainly aimed at dog lovers.
The story is decent, but the humor is mostly bland and the ending is of course extremely predictable. Cuba Gooding Jr. is from a nice actor in the making, sentenced for the last ten years to these kinds of films, in which he often proves that he is not really a comedic talent. This is also the case in this film in which he is more often annoying than really nice. James Coburn does a nice job, but you wonder what he's doing in a movie like this. Fortunately, there are still the dogs, who do their best and are certainly nice to see. The film itself has its moments, thanks mainly to a funny supporting role by Sisqo, but this sweet drama is nowhere to be found.
The dogs, Sisqo and the beautiful surroundings make sure that this film is still quite bearable.
2.0*

Very nice movie that I have seen a lot (a long time ago when it was just out). Very funny and quite good for a movie like this. especially because it is still a bit quiet for a comedy. good movie.

An excellent film that is well executed despite a poor plot. Cuba Gooding Jr. is clearly in its element. Not really a high flyer but still good Christmas entertainment.
