To me, this movie is perfection.
Brilliant and touching
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
The Ubriaccos are back. James (John Travolta) get a new job as a pilot for entitled Samantha (Lysette Anthony) who is the president of a major company. Meanwhile, Mollie (Kirstie Alley) gets laid off from her accounting job. Mikey and Julie get 2 new dogs. Rocks (Danny DeVito) is a mutt and the runt of the litter from the dog pound. Daphne (Diane Keaton) is a spoiled pedigree poodle from Samantha.The family is now bland. The kids are not as compelling without their gimmick. It seems like the movie is struggling to find something to happen to the family. I do mean struggle. It has way too many stupidity. I don't get why there's a dream sequence with Julie and Charles Barkley. It seems like filler. The dogs get sporadic screen time in the first half. I expected that the dogs would be in the home right away but the first half is wasted. Once the family unites with the dogs, it gets the expected kids with dogs mayhem. I keep thinking that there is a better story. The story is more like a sitcom. It should have been a fun family fare. I am bored with the dream sequences. This is like watching an unstable house of cards completely collapse. Then it takes a hard turn at the end that doesn't fit any of the rest of the movie.
Looks Whos Talking now isn't a brilliant film but I find it to be underrated,it still quite funny,with a nice storyline and enjoyable for the whole family,John Travolta and Kirstie Alley have great chemistry and I enjoyed how they made dogs the ones talking this time instead of doing something like,having another baby.Christmas is on the way and the Ubriacco family get two dogs,James gets a new job which involves a lot of travelling while Mollie gets fired.This time the dogs do the talking because the two kids are all grown up,Daphne (voiced by Diane Keaton) is a pampered poodle and starts to fall for the other new dog Rocks (voiced by Danny Devito).
What can be said? In an attempt to milk the "celebrity voices something that doesn't have it's own speaking voice" schtick, the Look Who's Talking series wanders from babies (which they did twice) to dogs. I half-expected them to continue the series after this outing by focusing on the talking tapeworms in Kirstie Alley's stomach or some similar thing.Sure, it's cute and has its moments, but ultimately this movie's a big fluffy nothing with Danny DeVito doing some of the worst voice work of his career, and Diane Keaton doing the worst acting of her entire life, voice or not. How many "awwww" moments does it take to get to the sappy center of a "Look Who's Talking" movie? The world really doesn't need to know.
This movie is part of one of the worst set of trilogies ever made where all the movies somehow made it to the theater. This one is quite bad, but at least it isn't part two so no Roseanne doing the voice. Here we have Danny DeVito and Diane Keaton doing dogs voices. Not really worth watching and there are probably lots of dog movies that are better. This one has the family being hateful to each other again. Let's face it Travolta and Alley have to be the worst screen couple ever, they always have problems. All in all not worth watching, but at least it is more tolerable than part two, but I say skip the entire set movies as none of them are good.
