An average movie

Obviously, I wasn't expecting much from this flick but I was looking for something easy to watch to fill in my afternoon so I thought I might as well finally check this one out  (the fact that it was also available on Netflix definitely helped my choice as well). Anyway, eventually, I really didn’t care at all about the damned thing. Indeed, I have to admit it, the whole concept must have been really cute for the kids but, as far as I'm concerned, I thought it was rather moronic. In fact, while watching the damned thing, I was thinking that it would have worked better as an animated feature. Indeed, this way, they could at least have given those dogs some personality because, in this movie, they were just reduced to do some improbable and supposedly cute tricks. As a result, they had to focus on the human characters who were all rather underwhelming. On top of that, those kids had some real issues, being orphans and going from one foster family to another, and this topic was just way to heavy for a fluffy movie like this one. Anyway, it seems that Don Cheadle  showed up just to check out the family genre from his bucket list and this talented actor was seriously wasted here. Anyway, to conclude, I guess it might be worth a look if you have some young kids to entertain, otherwise, you should pretty much avoid it.
