2.0 out of 5 stars Idea is nice, acting is brutal..., October 5, 2005

This review is from: More Than Puppy Love (VHS Tape)

I was about halfway through this film when I realized that it was basically a commercial for the Kansas Specialty Dog Service, which trains dogs to help people of a variety of disabilities. In that light, the movie plays a little better, understanding that the funding for such a project was likely very limited. Only a couple of "name" actors appear in this film, namely Diane Ladd (whose small role as Aunt Edna is largely for comic relief), and Pamela Bach (who is best-known for being married to David Hasselhoff). The only other recognizable actor is Allan Kayser, who played Bubba on "Mama's Family." The rest of the cast is limited to wooden cutouts who mostly mumble through equally wooden dialogue. The plot is fairly limited, keeping to two threads: the fall of a young husband and his subsequent recovery (which pretty quickly becomes a routine of bitterness directed at everyone and everything around him), and the raising of a puppy by a family who knows that it will eventually be returned to the KSDS. From the beginning, it's pretty obvious that the Labrador will wind up with the paralyzed young man.

Even though it is largely an infomercial, this film could have been so much more than it was. It's hard to fathom the producers couldn't locate more than a few actors who could utter their lines even semi-convincingly. Still, kids might find the movie a little interesting, particularly when Aunt Edna shares the screen with her ultra-pampered dog. But even kids will likely get bored at the myriad of lulls in this movie. It gets an "A" for effort, but a "D-minus" on execution.
