Nothing more than a mangy mutt.

| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 22, 2020

A waste of time (when will I learn?), an insult to the intelligence of a six-year-old boy, disproportionate garbage. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Feb 13, 2020

A surprisingly touching family comedy with real emotion.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 3, 2006

A good-natured, sometimes silly family fun that will play especially well with the under-13 set.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 1, 2006

...better than one might've expected, primarily due to the enthusiasm with which Allen tackles his role...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 19, 2006

At least Fred MacMurray had the good sense to let the co-star playing his son turn into a dog. But this is a Tim Allen picture, so he does the honors himself.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Jul 28, 2006

The film just translates the basic idea for a new generation under the ill-conceived notion that it was necessary.

Full Review | Jun 12, 2006

Five writers (Cormac Wibberley, Marianne Wibberley, Geoff Rodkey, Jack Amiel and Michael Begler) threw everything they could think of against the wall, hoping some of it would stick, but nothing did.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 12, 2006

It's an underestimation of the intelligence of your average eight year old to believe his or her rapt attention can be held for long by a film like this.

| May 4, 2006

Man becomes mutt in this inoffensive, uneven comedy that fails to make the most of its comic potential or familiar cast.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 31, 2006

Bizarre, incomprehensible and utterly unnecessary, "The Shaggy Dog" comes bounding onto the screen with a loud soundtrack, a cute pooch, vivid colors and dozens of product placements.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 30, 2006

The plot may sound stupid, but it's tightly written and it pushes all the right emotional buttons.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 30, 2006

The Shaggy Dog feels like little more than a stale rehash with a promising cast whose talents haven't been tapped.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 28, 2006

A flea-bitten farrago which bears only a fleeting resemblance to the 1959 film that inspired it.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 28, 2006

The Shaggy Dog, another tired retread from Disney, is so aggressively unfunny it should just roll over and play dead. Come on, guys, do something original for once.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 27, 2006

There are precious few surprises here, but parents will find director Robbins' breezy remake a painless affair and, judging by the yowls of laughter from the peanut gallery at the screening I attended, the kids will be barking all the way home.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Mar 18, 2006

Just when Allen is on a ferociously funny roll, director Brian Robbins is forced to collar and replace him with a collie doing a lame impersonation of a human.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 17, 2006

Coal, the Bearded Collie playing Shaggy, upstages everyone in this amusing update of a Disney classic.

You'll be sorry if you bring your kids.
