Plot 411: A mad scientist's experiment turns an ordinary dog into a super dog.
Review: I used to love the cartoon but didn't love the movie. While all the talking animals were cute in their own way, they couldn't save this film. A former drug-sniffing dog, Shoeshine (Jason Lee) is adopted by a night guard (Jim Belushi) and his son Jack (Alex Neuberger). Jack quickly finds out that he's no ordinary dog. Prior to his adoption, Shoeshine had a run in with a mad scientist (Peter Dinklage) that transformed him into a dog with many super powers. Jack and Shoeshine use his powers for the benefit of mankind while trying to avoid recapture by the scientist and his goons. I don't even really know what to say about this one. My favorite breed of dog is the beagle and even this wet-nosed pooch couldn't sway me. This movie also stars Amy Adams and Brad Garrett.
Watch It: If you like talking animals? Even then, there's probably something better for you to watch than this.
Skip It: If at all possible.
