O Perseguido

my sister, who was five at the time, saw this movie and didn't seem upset at all about the crazy dog. in fact, she laughed most of the time and immediately realized it was a stuffed animal.

i could understand if a kid already was petrified of small dogs, but if they were, then wouldn't they demand NOT to see the movie? plus, Disney channel puts out an original movie EVERY MONTH, ALL YEAR. a movie a month is no easy task for this small Disney department, let alone a huge industry pumping out theater worthy movies. these Disney channel original movies (DCOM's) are low budget and rushed because Disney just likes the idea of having a new movie a month with a child-friendly message for kids to watch.

a parent should be appreciative of Disney channel. it's a great balance between the nickelodeon shows that seem to skip from toddlers with nickjr. straight to the tweens. the shows nick has for the ages in between are suitable and clean, but never have a message. they seem just fine entertaining kids by having cartoons picking noses and being ridiculous.

hounded has a great message. and it's free to watch. so just chill out and know your kids are gaining good perspectives and morals.

I have to agree with another reviewer on here: it's pretty bad when parents can't have trust in "The Disney Channel." Here, we see a young boy being chased around by a small Pomeranian dog who is not on its medication. So, of course, it attacks the boy in a spur of madness; this could easily scare small children.

I don't want to sound like some peace-hippy, but it's true. The image of a boy being bitten and attacked by a small dog could result in nightmares for children - and headaches for parents.

Other than that small fact, the movie is STILL lousy; I wouldn't recommend it either way. Bad actors, bad dialogue, bad...everything!

Stay away from this movie. Or else. :)

Tahj Mowry, younger sibling of Tia and Tamera Mowry, gets to star in Hounded, still yet another Disney comedy that's purportedly supposed to appeal to the youthful viewer. I'm not sure how young you have to be to appreciate this one and if you're too young you might get nightmares and learn a fear of dogs from Hounded.

Young Mowry is going to a really posh prep school and when his elocution project is stolen and presented by the headmaster's spoiled kid Shia LaBoeuf, he takes it lying down rather than speak up. The presentation could mean a scholarship.

So what does our young genius do? He breaks into the headmaster's house to retrieve his project and accidentally makes friends with little Camille, a seemingly friendly Pomeranian. But off her meds the pooch becomes the hound from hell and she wrecks the Mowry digs after she follows Tahj home.

Hounded though it has some cute moments is really just more silly than genuinely funny. Mowry gets his older brother Craig Kirkwood who's a drill instructor at a military academy involved as well and you can't quite believe someone like that would engage in the dumb behavior he does.

The Magic Kingdom went to the dogs for this one.

This definetly could have been better. I was confused half the time: Is the point of this movie taming or returning the dog...and it definetly could have been better.

Seventeen Again is much better if you're a Tahj Mowry fan.

I kind of thought this movie would be better then it is, but its not. The script is terrable, and there is hardly an plot. A teenager is left at home alone because his mom and brother are away. Well, this kid stole a presentation from him, so he goes to find evidance in the kid's house while hes away. A cute little dog finds him, and wouldn't leave him alone. Although there are a few parts that are funny, this movie is overall an exercise in boredom for the viewer, and could be tould in a half hour. Don't waste your time seeing this.
