Rating: Summary: Hanks is great in this one. Review: I have a Dogue de Bordeaux like Hooch. Therefore, I am coming into this review with some bias. The movie starts with Hanks who has only 3 days to go before he is to start his new job with the highway patrol. His friend (Amos, Hooch's owner) is murdered and Hanks inherits Hooch. From that point, Hanks' well organized and planned life is changed. It is a story how Hanks comes to realize that Hooch misses his original owner and accepts Hanks' obessive/compulsive way of doing things. Of course, Hanks is great in his interaction with Hooch and doesn't loose his character as Scott to Hooch's character. The murder investigation of Hooch's previous owner is secondary to the interaction of Hanks and Hooch. Hanks is absolutely funny in this movie. If you like a movie with some heart, this is a good one.
Rating: Summary: HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THIS MOVIE? Review: I know this movie is a tad corny..... no, actuallly it's incredibly corny, but come on, Tom Hanks and a pitbull? What can you not love about this movie? This movie is pretty much your classic-stright laced guy gets some type of animal aganist own will, hates it at first, but grows to love it as much as a child type of movie. Yes, I may sound crazy and immediately after reading this you will probably vote aganist me, but trust me after you've seen Turner & Hooch you'll understand.
Rating: Summary: Doggone Good! Review: Me and my brother watch this all the time. This is the perfect family movie. You should watch it!
Rating: Summary: A good comedy, very funny. Review: One of the first Tom Hanks movies that has come out. Turner and Hooch is about a Man and a dog bonding in a weird way. Its absolutely hilarious. You have to see it. Also there are some good tear jerking moments.
Rating: Summary: Be Warned - PG is NOT what this movie should be rated Review: Parents, I would strongly suggest pre-viewing this movie before allowing your younger children to see this movie. Near the begining of the movie, two people are murdered; and while you don't "see" it, you can hear it. You also get to see Scott Turner (actor Tom Hanks) running around in his underwear. Plus there are two or three sexually suggestive scenes - one is a very heavily suggestive scene.
If you could cut those scenes out, this would be a great film. You just have to love the mastiff playing Hooch, and the scenes where the dog is destroying things is just plain funny!
Rating: Summary: The Odd Couple Indeed! Review: Scott Turner (Tom Hanks) is a single, cop living alone in his "Neat" and "Spotless" apartment (Not to mention the beginning scene when he uses a whole roll of paper towels to clean the mustard spill in his fridge!) Life for Scott is going great, untill he forced to take care of a slobbering, messy dog (Named "Hooch) after his owner is murdered in a fight! Since Scott needs to keep Hooch to help identify the murderer of Hooch's owner (Since Hooch saw the whole thing) he is going to have to get used to his stereo getting chewed up, his records getting eaten and his furniture getting wrecked! Poor Scott!In general, "Turner and Hooch" was a pretty good film! Like Tom Hank's other comedy classics like "Spalsh" and "Big, Turner and Hooch is a late-80s comedy about a neat-freak cop who has to take care of a slobbering, wrecking dog!! This case turns into a crazy, hillarious investigation that will have the whole family laughing out loud! Rated PG for some language and light violence.
Rating: Summary: An all time favorite Review: There are few movies as wonderful as this (OK, being a big dog lover helps). I thought Tom Hanks did a fabulous job, and I enjoyed him much better in those days then I do now. Hootch was the best dog actor I've ever seen. No looking over at the trainer all the time, at least that we could see. I want to buy this DVD, but I can't see if there is a commentary or any extras.

Rating: Summary: Dogue lovers' special Review: This feel good comedy with apropriate moments of drama is one of the better human/dog movies to come out of Hollywood since Lassie and Rin Tin Tin. A true tear jerker in the end, it is appealing to animal lovers and has plenty of lightheartedness throughout. In spite of the overshadowing premise that this is a "cop movie", it goes well beyond that. Hanks is his usual funny yet at times poingnat self and the personality of his new "partner" Hooch, a fine Dogue de Bordeaux present a wonderful contrast.
