Doggie Boogie - Get Your Grrr On!

You've got to be kidding. Bad acting. Horrible costumes. Awkward script. Special effects are so stupid. The dog was obviously on Valium. The entire movie has as much personality as a clam. I watched it to the end just in case there was something redeeming about it. I usually love movies about dogs. This one is the exception. My review has to be ten lines long. Why should I waste your time and Internet bandwidth on something this dumb. I don't want to insult other viewers who liked the film, but I do wonder about their level of, shall we say, sophistication. Perhaps this film originated as a project for fifth grade students. I paid $4.99 to rent it on Comcast. That is a rip! Don't waste your time.

This morning I had the opportunity to view the movie "Doggie Boogie" at the Sonoma International Film Festival in CA. I have now seen it twice and can't get enough. Very uplifting in a day and age where we need more positive joy. I will definitely purchase the movie once it is available to the public. This movie is an incredibly joyous escape. I was captivated by the story from the minute it started through the credits. This was actually the second time I have seen it and was surprised that it still had that "captivating effect" despite knowing the outcome of the plot.

The characters' charisma takes the story line to a very personal level for everyone in the audience. Very well cast! I recommend this movie for all ages of people who share or have shared their life with a canine family member.

My entire family loved the movie. I am just concerned that your calling the dog a Bichon Frise when he is actually a Bolognese. That is all. They come from the same family but due to the size and length of the snout (long) and (Shorter)legs he looks like a Bolognese. Bichons have a (short) snout and (longer) legs. Just might want to check it out. ;)

I saw the preview and I loved it. The dogs are adorable, the acting is superb, and the sets & color were fun and whimsical. The dog dancing scenes make it especially unique from any movie I've ever scene. I enjoyed the story line, the lessons and the laughs. It's rare that I like a movie that can also be enjoyed by children, but this movie was a surprising exception of that for me. The attention to detail on the costumes and sets was particularly impressive. I heard many people commenting on the way out of the theater that they were impressed with the sets, which is not something I've heard before. Even the dog costumes we coordinated, fitted and fun. I look forward to seeing it again!

Judging from the title and cover when I picked this up for my friend, I was expecting the story to be about a rapping boxer who makes it big with his mad turntable skillz. What I got was a trashy feel good movie, that held no appeal to the African American audience it would be happy to embrace. Doggie B could have been the next big thing - a watershed film about the struggles that dogs have to become rappers. Instead, it's about some girl whose mom is a stereotypical asshole fighting against an oppressive hyper-cat lady to secure her uncles dog dancing ring. I wanted to see Doggie B go into the dark underground Dog Fighting scene. I wanted to see Doggie B battle to get a record deal. Instead, what I got was a movie that shames me more then it does excite me. 'Doggie B' gets a 2/10 from this unhappy film viewer.
