- One for people who love a story about friendship and animal lovers. The friendships are the beating heart of it. If you loved The Other Guys, start here. Built to entertain rather than impress the critics, and audiences love it for that.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Wastes no time getting going, at 1 hr 31 min.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG-13. Probably too much for younger kids.
- Critics were cooler on it than audiences.
- Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.
LAPD detective Mike Dooley and his dog, the German Shepherd Jerry Lee, have been successfully partnered for ten years, but Jerry’s advancing age has Dooley’s superiors suggesting retirement and they are forced to work with a younger K-9 team: female cop Sergeant Welles and her disciplined Doberman Zeus.
