With a lukewarm 49% audience score and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone who's ever talked to their pet and fans of a well-timed joke. An animal steals a fair few scenes. Set in sun-baked Los Angeles.
- The mood
- Light and funny, feel-good.
- The pace
- Bright and bouncy, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
Maya Dolittle can talk to animals. She gets discovered and Tiffany Monaco, a Hollywood star, brings her to L.A. to help her little puppy, who turns out to be a boy.
