Tockinit not horrible nor great

Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

trailerbugs Oh yeah, this was on before The Emoji Movie and it seemed quite funny but I'll admit I wasn't paying as much attention as I could have been, cowering in fear of what lay ahead.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Puppy" is a 5-minute animated short film from this year (2017) and it is a very recent release by Sony Pictures Animation. The writer and director is Russian 3-time Emmy winner Genndy Tartakovsky and maybe that will make it obvious to some already that this is a little add-on to the Hotel Transylvania franchise. I read that it was shown before the new Emoji movie. Anyway, there will be a 3rd HT movie next year and I am glad this series keeps going as I enjoyed films 1 and 2. As for this short film, there is really very little in here until a great plot twist near the end when the huge puppy sees all these skeletons entering the scene. A dog and skeletons? That's right if you say you have seen that on another occasion in an animated short film this year. But I think they handled it better with this one here. Shame the beginning is so forgettable. Visually, it is of course as good as expected. This film is one of the submissions to the Oscars this year, but with the full feature films failing to score a nomination I would not say that chances are too good for this one here to get in (let alone get the win) unless they wanna honor the franchise somehow, which admittedly would not be undeserving. The first moments are about the baby and then everything afterward is about Dracula and the puppy of course. Maybe it is just me, but I simply cannot see a mother in Mavis. Anyway, if you liked the film(s) as much as I did, then you can check this one out as it really comes pretty close to the long versions in terms of comedy, looks, general approach and quality. I give "'Puppy!'" a thumbs-up.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA as of this site's official count at 5:33 PM Eastern Standard Time Monday, August 7, 2017, perhaps PUPPY! will hold some interest for you (as Adam Sandler again voices "Count Dracula"). Possibly it will perk up potential PUPPY! viewers' interest to know that 52 voters have awarded this animated short a rating of 6.7 (of 10) as of 5:39 PM on the date listed above, while THE EMOJI MOVIE (with which PUPPY! is paired) is trailing near historic lows at 1.6 among 11,722 internet users who claim to have suffered through it. THE EMOJI MOVIE certainly features a lot more Poop than PUPPY!, as counter-intuitive as that may sound. America is treating THE EMOJI MOVIE as something that it stepped in, to be scrubbed off diligently before it's tracked into the house. Though PUPPY! can't hold a candle to PIPER, let alone to PAPERMAN, perhaps the best that can be said about it is that it is not as much of a complete waste of time as THE EMOJI MOVIE.
