Greenes Please don't spend money on this.
Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
romanland I admit, when I was walking into the theater, I wasn't expecting very much. It looked to be your standard Illumination movie, hyperactive and annoying. But when I sat down and watched the film, I enjoyed it. Not too much, but as a movie that I would see again. The animation is probably one of the best Illumination efforts in a while, and while the story and characters aren't very memorable, it just struck the right chords to be enjoyable. It wasn't trying to win any awards, heck, U don't even think it was trying to be good. But it was decent. Not the kind of thing I would buy on Blu-Ray, but something I was happy with. It's cliche, but enjoyable. Score: B-
Andrew Pelechaty An enjoyable animated comedy-adventure with a big cast, "The Secret Life of Pets" examines what animals really get up to when their owners go to work. Louis C.K plays Max, a sweet little dog who loves his owner Katie ("The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt's" Ellie Kemper). Max's peaceful world changes when Katie adopts Duke ("Modern Family's" Eric Stonestreet), a giant, clumsy dog. Initially hostile towards Duke, the pair have to work together after getting lost in the park, attacked by alley cats and captured by Animal Control.While TSLOP avoids the adult-centric in jokes of most animated comedies, adults won't be bored, helped by a voice cast including Kevin Hart (a crazy, human-hating bunny called Snowball), Albert Brooks (the hawk Tiberius), Dana Carvey (the ancient dog Pops who hosts wild animal parties at his home), "Parks and Recreation's" Jenny Slate (Max's wannabe girlfriend Gidget) and Hannibal Buress (Buddy, one of Max's dog friends).TSLOP isn't as memorable as the top shelf Disney/Pixar movies, but is still worth watching.
evivaholst If you have a pet no matter how old you are you will love this!
info-12388 Not a Great Classic by any stretch, but SECRET LIFE OF PETS is still a pretty awesome achievement, both from a story, design, and animation point of view. There are moments in the film when you wonder how the animators pulled off scenes of such dazzling complexity, such as the one on the Brooklyn Bridge towards the end - and speaking as a 3D artist, watching the hair dynamics pf the various characters was. at times, truly jaw dropping.But the most fascinating aspect of this was how the film moves from how we see our pets to hoe they see the world. The writing is especially clever during these moments. All in all, a film I will probably watch again, simply because so much happens that you cant take it all in in one viewing. And if you're a pet owner, the final montage (no spoilers) will grab you by the heart.
