What The Shaggy Dog feels like, more than anything, is an old-fashioned Disney movie.
Read the full reviewThe star (Allen), unleashed, is so energetic in his approximation of a bearded collie -- his nose sniffing the air, his whole being (which toggles between human and canine form) overcome by the need to fetch any stick thrown -- that his slobbery charm carries the picture.
Read the full reviewMs. Curtin is one of several examples of quirky casting that make this Shaggy Dog much more fun than it might have been.
Read the full reviewA fast-moving Walt Disney Co. comedy that manages to sail past many of the cliches usually found in this genre while throwing together a wild story line more apt for a new millennium.
Read the full reviewMay not make you howl, but it does offer a few bona fide belly laughs.
Read the full reviewIt says something for Robert Downey Jr. that in a movie where a man becomes a dog, Downey creates the weirdest character.
Read the full reviewStrictly for the very young who will find giggles in the anthropomorphic mash-ups and won't be too distracted by the predictably mawkish sitcom plot.
Read the full reviewAs a comic actor, Allen's palette is limited to varying degrees of beige. He is not only boring, he's obnoxious and narcissistic. Where's the ASPCA -- the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Audiences -- when you need 'em?

The Shaggy Dog
"Great Movie I thought it was funny and a little silly"
A MUST SEE!
"This movie, The Shaggy Dog, is a definate MUST SEE. Timothy Allen makes a great dog, especially by his furry self. If you would like to get out of the house, this is a great movie to see, especially if you have a disease and are not allowed out of the house. The Shaggy Dog is the stupidest movie in the world, and unless you enjoy seeing a dog talk and then fall into a pond 3 times, don't see this movie."
Tim Allan never lets you down
"I didn;t love it but thekids are already talking about the next time."
