A Film Review By Paul Perkins

 

A Very Funny and Fun Film

Remakes are the new thing in Hollywood lately there has been a ton of remakes. So far this year we have When a Stranger calls and this week there are two remakes The Hills Have eyes and this film The Shaggy Dog.

The hairy adventures begin as unbeatable Deputy D.A. Dave Douglas (ALLEN) takes on his latest legal case -- this time involving a criminal animal laboratory. It’s yet another ambitious assignment that will whisk workaholic Dave away from his wife (KRISTIN DAVIS) and kids (ZENA GREY and SPENCER BRESLIN), who yearn for his attention. But when Dave is accidentally infected with a top-secret, genetic-mutation serum that morphs his body into that of the family’s new pet Bearded Collie, everything he thought he knew about being himself and a part of his family changes.

This film is a remake of the 1977 film which by what people told me this film the 1977 was good. I have never seen the 1977 version but this new version was very good I couldn’t stop laughing. I was surprise how good the story was I never thought it would be this good. The trailer does not give the film justice I thought after watching the trailer I thought it would it would be bad but of course I was wrong.

The acting was very good from the main star of the film Tim Allen who has been doing a lot of kids film lately one of his most popular films is The Santa Clause films which was all good. Keep an eye for a third one this Christmas.

The film was not slow at all and was the perfect length. The best thing of the film it was very funny I could not stop laughing. This is a good film you can take the whole family to check it out today.
