good family movie to watch on a Sunday evening full of goodness with talking dogs and this time the kids can talk for them selves also the wife is very paranoid about her husband so it ends up like bit of fights in her dreams Gangtok dogs bogs photogenic none flapping Sedgwick fisticuff this movie is great superb amazing fantastic outstanding dog fun for many people i would recommend this movie for a family of 3 or more so you can sit on your couch while the fire is on to enjoying a good comedy plus the mum(British term) and dad are the same actors so there cannot be any confusions an if any parents think this is bad for there child's life about finding out that Santa is a fake it shows you at the end that there is a Santa clause

Well, at least this was the last they made(*no*, Hollywood, that was *not* a dare). In that they had run out of different genders of children to give celebrity voices to, they turned to the pets. This time, they give the family two dogs, one of each gender, give them each a voice and lets the kids rest their inner voices. Why is it that infants, right from the womb(which we, again, see, because there apparently can not be an entry in this franchise without that), have the voice of people who are about middle-aged, give or take a handful of years or so? Apparently, even dogs. Oh well, at least these two actors, DeVito and Keaton, aren't too bad(not that I had a problem with Willis, at least as an actor), and the former's voice fits rather well for a canine. Take that any way you want. At least Roseanne is gone... but they make efforts to make Julie as annoying without her, having her tell knock-knock jokes so lame that even the parents would ask her to stop... she also apparently fantasizes about beating Charles Barkley, who must have liked the part, as he did the same thing again three years later, in Space Jam. Dukakis shows up again, in what can only be loyalty(in a film with dogs as main characters, how fitting). Heckerling neither wrote nor directed this... when the very *creator* of a franchise steps down, you ought to know there's something wrong. There is no trace left of any charm the series ever had(which was all found in the first). I would say that the franchise by this point just has overstayed its welcome, but it could be argued that it achieved that before the end credits of the original film. More nightmare sequences, this time being ridiculous(a first for the series; usually, they were just misplaced and more unsettling than anything a young child should watch). The main conflict is essentially rehashed from the first two, only dumbed down. Lysette Anthony shows up, her acting performance being at the same level that it was in Trilogy of Terror II(that would be poor). This film will insult the intelligence of anyone beyond the age of seven, but some of the humor remains above what they will(or should) understand, or ought to watch. The very ending was almost too much. I recommend this to people who like dogs, and men attracted to Lysette. 3/10

I'm really surprised at such a low rating. This movie is such a great family film. Ok it's not the same as the first 2 in the way it's more family orientated. However I think it's a great family Christmas film and one that kids would love. The dogs are really cute and Devito and Keaton are perfect for the voices. I recommend watching it at Christmas, it's not a movie that is a huge blockbuster but for a couple of hours at Christmas why not?!
