3.0 out of 5 stars A KICK IN THE PANTS, October 14, 2004

This review is from: Soccer Dog - The Movie (DVD)

As much as I wanted to like SOCCER DOG THE MOVIE, when it was over, I felt very little. The premise is cute but the execution of the movie was so ill-conceived that in its attempts to be a canine ROCKY, all we get is some bad one-liners, an inept cast, and a movie that seemed much longer than its ninety minutes. Jeremy Foley tries hard as the orphan taken in by former orphan James Marshall and Olivia d'abo. But the movie is filled with so many distractions that it loses its energy early and never gets it back. The addition of the three stooges at the DMV is preposterously unfunny; Billy Drago's demonic dog catcher merely a boring plot device; and the ultimate soccer game has little tension or excitement. Lincoln's return to his original owner is also a letdown, and the addition of the new golden retriever only sets up the unnecessary sequel.

While the family may enjoy it, I don't think adults will find it stimulating, so let the kids watch it alone.

1.0 out of 5 stars Ughhhhhh, December 15, 2001

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Soccer Dog: The Movie [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Terrible. I like childens movies. Air Bud was far better. Poor editing and bad acting and a bad story (including a criminal after a dog!!!!!!!) made this hard to watch. When the dog plays soccer, it looks so fake. You see a goal and then a super-imposed dog going over it and hitting a ball. I am twelve years old, and I saw the most mistakes I have ever seen in a movie (and I've seen lots of movies). This movie is terrible and too mundane.
