Dog Movie

About This Movie

So, 'Dog Movie' has this really peculiar vibe. It’s a blend of comedy and drama that kind of sneaks up on you. The pacing feels a bit off-kilter, which actually adds to its charm. You’ve got this passive-aggressive tenderqueer couple, and they adopt this elderly dog who shares a name with their stagnant couch surfer friend. The tension bubbles under the surface, and it’s interesting how the characters navigate their relationships—both with each other and with this dog. The performances are solid, capturing that awkwardness of not wanting to confront the obvious. The practical effects are minimal but effective, letting the narrative take center stage. It’s distinct in how it portrays home life and the chaos that pets can bring into it.
