Advantages: Great fun for all the family Disadvantages: Yougest child thought all cats & dogs could talk!
...for alligies to dogs. The cats obvioulsy don't want this to happen. The resort to all sorts of underhand methods for disrupting this fine work.
My favourite scene would be when the cats send a "ninja" to dispose of the puppy and in the fight that follows the humans front room is totalled, by various devices including a rather explosive hairball!
After this battle the dogs proceed to clean up and repair, a impossible task which is completed seconds ...

Advantages: Great special effects Disadvantages: Story line quite far fetched
Cats and Dogs was advertised time after time and people I know who had already seen it recomended it to me so I decided to go to my local cinema. As soon as I saw the first part I knew why everyone made such a fuss about it.
The film is hilariously funny and the basic storyline is the following:
There are these cats that try and take over the world by getting the formula to make no one on earth allergic to dogs and reverse it. The cats then spray ... ...every household on the planet but the dogs get there in time. The dogs kennels are full of high tech equipment such as tracking devices and communication machines. This family have a dogbut the dog runs away so the mum buys the boy a new dog. This new dog has been trained for missions of this kind and fits right in with the dogs in the surrounding neighbourhood. The mum of the family soon after that buys a cat and thats when the fun starts. The new ...

Advantages: So realistic that when I got home I half expected my cats to say Hi there! Disadvantages: Pussies get a raw deal,best to go with kids.
I love cats to bits, I have three of my own, I also have two children, so this seemed the purfect(Excuse the pun) film for me. It had so much exposure on T.V and on the net, it was everywhere you looked, hyped to within an inch of its life, but I am sorry to say it wasnt as good as I thought it was going to be. As an adult and a cat lover, it probably didnt do for me what it would for dog lovers and children. My kids loved it, it has a few animal ... ...about the fact they make cats seem evil, all the cats in this are really scary evil mogs, and all the dogs are cute, lovely doggies. I did enjoy it and I am really glad I went,I even confess to coming home and expecting my cats to speak to me, it is very realistic and very well made. A definate hit for the kids, not something I would go to without kids as I would have with other films. ...

CATS AND DOGS
Where do I start? well cats and dogs is certainly a funny film in parts but I personaly didnt find it that funny.I'm not trying to say its boring my family found it funny but its not my kind of thing.So what i'm tring to say is its funny and I dont have good taste.Cats and Dogs isnt really original animals talking is like Doctor Dolittle and like most films the goodies win. The story line:
The story is about a war between cats and ... ...are allergic to dogs.So the cats are getting all their forces together to steal the formula and reverse it to make everyone allergic to dogs.The cats "dognap" the secret agent dog and another is sent for but there is a mix up and a untrained puppy is sent.The cats get the formula and the dogs HAVE to get it back!!
The animation is:mainly animatronics
The main cat was called Mr Twinkles
The story was set in:Suburan America

Advantages: Good clean family fun. Disadvantages: Not enough cats, too much dogs.
...these are curtesy of the cats who had all the best lines. It seems to be true in film as well as in cartoons - dogs are dumb, whereas cats are cool, even if they are evil monsters who want to take over the world. The main problem I had with this film was its length. If it was twenty minutes shorter it would probably have been better for it. There were to many soppy 'a dog is a man's best friend' type sentimental sequences, which is pretty typical ...

...story revolves around around the cats trying to dominate the world and is lead by a Feline Dr No, and his cronies who are always getting things wrong, they battle against the dogs who are trained secret agents a regular James Bond. The best bit of the film involves the Ninja Cats, after watching this you bit of the film you will soon realise that your own cat isn't mad it is just praticing its martial arts.
I believe that this film is directed towards ...

Advantages: Good computer effects Disadvantages: Poor storyline, not enough to hold your interest
The trailers for this film looked good but unfortunately it was one of those films where ALL the best parts were in the trailer. The effects of the animals was quite clever but it just wasn't enough to hold your attention. My 5 year old daughter was fidgeting after about 15 minutes and was very unimpressed by the whole thing. It's difficult to see who this is aimed at. It seems a little violent at times to be aimed at young children yet there is ...

Advantages: Very funny Disadvantages: A little overated.
...thought the traditional Dog's V Cats was a little old though.
I did think it was slightly overrated, after seeing and buying it, I have watched it only three times with my family before getting board. I would say this movie is for people of any age witch makes it great for family viewing.
The dogs and the cats where really funny. I thought that the ninja cats where especially very funny because of the special effects that where used. They where ... ...that the leader of the cats (the bad guy’s) was mad, but very funny and a little cute too, the perfect, crazy villain you could ever ask for.
Lou, the little pup who gets chosen to guard the lab was really cute and lovable and I thought he was very, very funny and made a grate hero.
The cats are after getting the antidote that is in the lab. The antidote is being made to cure peoples allergies towards dogs and the cats naturally did not like ...

Advantages: Brilliant film great effect and had me laughing Disadvantages: Kids were not that impressed
...in hysterics with the ninja cats and the russian blue. There were many jokes and funny scenes in this film but the kids just didnt get some of them. It is definately one you can watch over and over.
Jeff goldblum pays this wierd scientist looking for a cure for dog allergies. But the cats do not want him to make it and stop at nothing to make sure his efforts go wrong. Lou the loverly puppy beagle joins the family and has to stop the cats attempts. ...

Advantages: Family entertainment for all ages Disadvantages: Cats are not evil!
...Dogs = goodies and Cats = baddies? some people may disagree, but for the purpose of this film, it makes for entertaining viewing. The idea of a kitten deliberately getting a puppy in trouble with its owners seems quite true... Ever thought your cat seems too cunning? Then maybe the cats really are trying to enslave the human population again..? An interesting view on the long drawn out battle between cats and dogs, with many entertaining scenes, ...

...of the standard dogs and cats will never get on kind. Given that, the general storyline is somewhat weak, in that the humans always appear to be somewhat unnecessary, the animation is the main thing between the animals. Another film where quite often there is some background entertainment. The special effects and soundtrack are often better than the plot, but the children will love the entire film - there is nothing that you could object to in this ... ...the mice) is excellent. It could be said there are some "overtones", which an adult would easily be able to spot, but they would go over most childrens' heads anyway. Rent it and give the family a treat!
