Review of Old Dogs (2009) by Sue M — 22 Feb 2011
This is the weird thing, Old Dogs is not that bad. Nostalgia is part of the modest charm of this disposable but inoffensive picture. Old Dogs makes old dogs out of all of us. You see where this is going, but, apparently, kids don't know the formula. Too bad this shrilly tuned comedy doesn't demand more than clock-punching effort from everyone involved. It runs a fast 88 minutes, is broad as the waistlines of its stars, and is remarkably family-friendly if you don't mind bathroom humor.
VERDICT: "Matinée" - (Mixed reaction). These kinds of movies are usually movies that had some good things, but some bad things kept it from being amazing. This rating says to pay matinée prices to see at a theater or buy an ex rental or a cheap price of the DVD to own.
