Good story, Not enough for a whole film
It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
I Have to say that I liked this a lot and it made me laugh. I never saw the first one so I cannot compare but this one on the TV in the background and it was so funny i had to stop what I was doing and pay full attention to it. It had a lot of funny takes on the James bond franchise and a lot of creative ways to get the dogs to do what a human spy would do. I thought it was silly but that was part of its charm. I loved the crazy pigeon and I liked the cat working with the dog together. the story was a little cliché but the creative ways they got the dogs to be spies made up for it.
Once more, we chose to ignore the generally negative user reviews and redboxed Cats and Dogs; The Revenge of Kitty Galore. In a word (or should I say a minimum of 10 lines of words), we loved it. From the opening credits with the great Shirley Bassey doing a James Bond theme version of Pink's Let's Get the Party Started, I knew it was going to be clever and well written, and it didn't disappoint. The cast is very good with the appropriately utilized voices of the two main characters; the distinctive gravelly voice of Nick Nolte and in instantly recognizable voice of and Bette Midler as Kitty Galore herself (although slightly over the top), but obviously having a ball playing the villain. I could have done without the token stereotypical and very obnoxious black character, apparently required in all animated movies; in this case "Kat" (no pun intended) Williams. At least it wasn't Wanda Sykes. All in all, my advice would be to ignore the mostly negative reviews and rent Dogs and Cats: The Revenge of Kitty Galore; it is a very cute and thoroughly entertaining movie suitable for all ages.
Cats and dogs 2, is better than its precedent from 10 years ago, yet it lacks laughs and interest. The movie is based on the cats and dogs joining together and trying to beat Kitty Galore. In my opinion this villain was not interesting as the last one. This one is less creative and is not as creative. There is also a new main character and some returning. It was entertaining to see how the dogs and the cats were trained to do this movie. The effects lack a lot of technology and they looked a little fake. I did not get a chance to see this in 3d, but I think that it wouldn't have been that great since there are not a lot of scenes that pop out at you. At the end of the film it leaves with a cliffhanger where you think a third installment will come soon. The only thing that makes me want to see it is the same villain as the first movie, but other than that, I hope the directors and producers come up with a better script. Rent it for the kids, but not for teenagers or adults.
I repeat: This is a CHILDREN'S MOVIE!!There's a lot of up and down votes on something that really wasn't meant for critically snarky 30-somethings. Get a grip!The First Movie was interesting because the concept of our pets being part of shadow spy organizations that stayed out of human sight was an eye-opener. Following up on the initial break-out is always an up-hill slog.This one was Okay. Crazed Cat Villain attempts to take over the world by making all dogs go crazy so humans will put them all into kennels. Both Canine and Feline Organizations get together to prevent disaster. what follows is EASY and ENTERTAINING to a Child. . .Repeat: 'Entertaining to a Child', not someone's Little Genius who reads the New York Times for Bedtime Stories!The references and gags put in for the accompanying adults are there to LIGHTLY ENTERTAIN us by eliciting Pun-Groans or soft snickers. They ARE NOT trying to give you a Comedy Central Sidetrack. The Adult is NOT the Target Audience here. If they did that, IT WOULD NOT BE A KID MOVIE ANYMORE!Personally, I groaned at the Batman/Joker redux of Kitty Galore. Then I smiled at the Dangerous Kitty doing the Silence of the Lambs sendup.And the rest of the time, I just sat back and enjoyed a rambunctious, Tom & Jerry style action romp simply because I wanted to be entertained by something lighthearted.And the Pigeon was a Hoot!Simply put: A good clean Movie for Little Kids that won't put the adult to sleep. Or even if you don't have Kids, and you want something light and silly to watch that doesn't require thought, this is an easy choice. Enough said.
