Summary: A Lot of Fun
Review: It is certainly great to see how they make the animals act in this movie , the effects are good , as are the voice overs. I am a dog lover too, and am admittedly not, as a rule, too fond of cats. Those who are cat lovers may not like the fact that in this one, the cats are evil!

The dogs have to rescue the world from a plan by the cats for a world revolution, where they will overtake the earth, and install a cat tyranny, like they once had in Ancient Egypt.

I particularly found the scene of the kung fu cat throwing knives and, his face set in a evil leer, very amusing. Other highlights for me, where the Doggy United Nations scene - at the center of the earth. Hey its go to have more sense and concern for rights and justice, than the miserable 'peoples' UN, we have adding to misery and tyranny in the world today. But I digress; in this one some of the doggy delegates got the chairman quite irate by playing frisby in the assembly. And who can address the Cat Rally where a demagogic Mr. Tinkles to the background of sinister Red Bolshevik-like posters addresses the cats, raving about the 'glorious revolution' that he will bring about, with the aid of the most unlikely ally-gasp, mice! Who will be rewarded with the continent of Australia.
Then of course there was the German nurse Sophie, the bane of the life of the villainous Mr. Tinkles - she dresses him in all sorts of frilly clothes etc. After the defeat of the cats, Mr. Tinkles is returned to the care of Sophie, who has invited her three equally fat sisters, to the mansion where he lives, who have all sorts of jerseys and frilly outfits for him ' before the photo session.
Kind of like the humiliation of another tyrant Saddam Hussein, having his teeth checked on world TV LOL.

Alexander Pollock is the boy Scott Brody, the owner of Lou, the little Beagle, Jeff Goldblum as Professor Brody, who is working on a special formula that the cats want to get their evil hands on, and is was great to see Elizabeth Perkins (she played the leading lady in Big) who is quite cute in her role as Mrs. Brody.

This is not the best , but it is entertaining.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5 stars for Mr. Tinkles!
Review: I thought this movie was great. Mr. Tinkles is halarious. His lines made me laugh so hard that I couldn't breath. The 3D animation, the voice acting and the characters are great! Very halarious.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: HOW CUTE IS THIS?
Review: Absolutley adorable! Those are the words I have to use to
start my review of this outstanding movie. In this upbeat
film, we have man's best friend, the dog pitted against the
cat world. The cats, after all, are trying to make us their
slaves as we once were so long ago! Could that be possible?
I loved it.
The movie was full of action, had some tender moments and was
just plain fun.....a good time for everyone watching it!
Highly recommended!

Summary: I am a Dog Lover , but not a Memorable Movie
Review: The Movie Cat's & Dogs was an ok movie when I saw it. I mean ok , cause the jokes and the humor was a little dumb , and the scenes kind of dragged on a little bit. But , the great thing about the movie is the respect the dogs get , I love dogs , I have a Siberian Huskey , and Golden Retriever. So I think they are the best. Lou was a cute , playful little guy , played by a cool actor ``Tobey Mcguire'' (Spider-Man ,The Cider House Rules , and the 2003 summer movie ``Sea Biscuit'' which I want to see.) And the Butch was cool (Alec Baldwin , ``Pearl Harbor'')
as was Susan Surandon's part , as the female Hound. The Cats were incredibly stupid , but then again , I am not big on cats so that would make sense. This movie had one scene in particular , that I liked , when the kid told Lou , he was his best friend , I love that , people who have a close bond with thier pets , especially dogs , is a great sight. But i'm not dissing cat people , but lets face it , cats don't exactly show 2/3 a fraction of love as dogs do. Anyway , the movie was ok , but it's not as memorable as other family movies that came out like (Shrek , Dr.Dolittle 2 , Tarzan , Prince of Egypt , A Bug's Life , Antz , & Mulan) _ _ They ``bark'' up the right trail.
v (Those are a couple of my favorite family movies)

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It's OK
Review: This is not exactly a cool movie. It has funny parts, but all in all, it is a dumb movie about crime-fighting dogs and cats who hate each other. Basic story: Kid loses dog, gets new dog, hates dog, befriends dog, dog discovers a crime-fighting dog agency against cats hidden inside a doghouse. Stupid, right?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Amazing movie that entertains
Review: Cats and Dogs is about an underground rivalry between the felines and the canines, one that has been brewing for as long as man has lived.

But this movie puts a humorous twist on it: talking cats and dogs, ultra-advanced futuristic technology for them, and hilarious dialogue.

This movie was quite entertaining for me, even though I'm 18, but it was a little bit silly. I mean, the technological factor really was blown out of proportion. If humans can't even do these things, how will these animals do it. But that's what movies is about, right? Suspending your disbelief. And for kid's (probably under teenagers) this movie is a blast.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Nice family movie!
Review: This is an enjoyable little comedy which keeps the interest of its intended audience, however it's not very memorable. The script is fairly weak, but the movie is entertaining and pretty funny. The dogs are the good guys and the cats play the bad guys trying to take over the world. The special effects and animation are imaginably excellent. The vocal cast do an amazing job here, really bringing these animals to life. There are some impressive fight scenes and many funny visual gags. Overall, I would recommend this film to anyone who likes family films.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: AWFUL!!!!
Review: 1 and a half star would be the real ratin'!! When I first saw this on the DVD, I thought it was funny, but afterwards I realize the too much of animal creulty it this piece. Simply put out the only reason I still see it and it's my only favorite part in the movie in the endin' credits when their playin' "What's New, Pussycat?!" by Tom Jones!! a great song from a great singer!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Oh! Such Fun! ^-^
Review: Cats & Dogs...Sure, it isn't the BEST movie in the world, but its definatly ONE of the best! ^-^ Cats & Dogs is a silly movie about a dog named Lou who gets mistaken for a secret agent and thrown into this big ol' "war" between cats and dogs.

Mr. Tinkles, the bad cat (LOL), wants to take over the world. And the dogs haveta stop him. Yes...it IS a pretty simple plot. But within five minutes you'll be rolling on the ground, laughing so hard you won't even notice.

Erhem! Now... People, people! Come ON already! I mean, really, there is no racism in this movie! And you cat lovers...I'll have you know that I am a cat lover as well. Can't stand to leave my poor wittle felines alone for more than two minutes...Heh...^-o

But if you have a problem with seeing cats be evil, then remember that thats the plot. Get over it.

And if you have a problem with seeing cats be bashed (I'll admit that I cringed once or twice) then just remember that its either a robot, puppet, or CG cat being bashed. Nothing to worry about.

Please know that I'm not trying to make ya feel bad -- I just wanted to say that...^-^ Heh. LOL.

Four stars.

PROS-

Lotsa humor
Amazing 3D
Mr. Tinkles (heh)
"The Russian"
The Ninja Cats
The cute wittle animals are SECRET ANGETS! WAHOO! ^o^

CONS-

The plot is pretty simple
A little overboard with the cat bashing...>.>

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very funny movie
Review: This is a great movie that didn't get a lot of play in the theaters. Cat lovers may not like it a lot since cats are portrayed as the bad guys in the film, but I think any dog lover would really enjoy this film. The voice acting is fantastic and has a fun comedic beat. Check it out.
