Show Dogs
In the spirit of Beverly Hills Chihuahua, Show Dogs stars a delightful cast of talking canine characters, including our hero Max, a rugged lone-wolf Rottweiler police dog. Max and his human police partners are investigating an underground network of illegal animal traders when they get a tip that the crime ring is planning an attack on the prestigious Eastminster Dog Show.
Macho Max must undergo a makeover mud baths, ballet lessons, a Brazilian waxing to go undercover in order to thwart the plot. In the hands of his new human handler Frank, Max gets in touch with his inner show dog, and also learns that trusting the help of others can sometimes be more rewarding than working alone.
Critic Reviews:
- " There are lots of comic moments at this dog show. Part of the humour is the precise reflection of canine behaviour. " – Stephen Romei
- " Stanley Tucci's wonderfully camp voice performance should make adults sit up and stay. " – Andy Lea
- " A high-concept family comedy that manages to avoid being taken for the runt of the litter. " – Michael Rechtshaffen
