A writer decides to placate his wife’s desire for children by getting a puppy instead. He ends up with a pet he can’t control, laughs it off, writes a book about it, sells the rights, and makes millions. I can’t wait for the next book, merchandise, movie empire some celebrity will be inspired to create — “My Adopted Third-World Kid & Me.” And that puppy with a bow is too freakin’ cute!

This is a movie is about a dog that stars in an action TV series and thinks he really is a super hero. He gets separated from his girl and sets out on a cross-country journey to get back to Hollywood. A few things:
- I’m pretty sure it’s illegal to send pets through the mail.
- A giant door would totally crush a plastic hamster ball.
- Cats are jerks. Do you really think a cat would teach a dog how to be a dog?
- Disney totally bit off the Animaniacs Goodfeathers with those stupid pigeons.
Surprise, he finds the girl at the end and all three animals live happily ever after.
