Pup Star

This is my 8 year olds favorite, has been for a while now. She sings along and quotes the movie as it plays. A dog is caught by the dog catcher and somehow escapes and gets on a American Idol type show.

Netflix has all the sequels and IMDB tv has this one, the original.

Pup star is the best movie i've ever seen, I was going to kill myself but then i watched this movie and now i am blessed. My favorite characters include (but are not limited to) Big Ears Baby, Tini, and Aisian Steryotype Doggo. The editing in this movie is incredible, i really thought that the dogs were talking. In conclusion, Pup Star is the greatest movie to ever exist on the space rock we call earth.

Thank You, death is inevitable, and have a nice day.

A Yorkshire Terrier, competing in a televised singing competition, is separated from her owner by an opportunistic dog pound worker.

Fantastic, family, fun, funny, cute and really cool.

A purebred puppy participates in a singing competition on TV and ends up separated from her owner by an opportunistic kennel employee.

Stuffed with artistic references that most are unaware of, cute, with little animals that move their mouths when talking, however more of the same when it comes to the producer, Air Bub entertainment, less interesting than the equally cute "Bub: O Cão Amigo" from the same producer...

Pup Star is a fun, fantastic, family-friendly film! It really is an amazing and inspiring movie with talking and singing dogs. I found myself cheering for the super talented Tiny and booing the bad guys, or should I say bad dogs!

The story is about Tiny, an adorable Yorkie pup who dreams of becoming the next Pup Star, which is a spin off of the popular TV singing competition reality shows. The celebrity judges include Dog Gnarly, Blake Sheltie, Lady Paw Paw and of course, Simone Growl.

Along Tiny's journey, she is dog napped, meets colorful companions and becomes a more inspired singer with the help of Charlie, who is on his own journey. Tiny is encouraged by everyone she meets to keep going and not give up on her dreams. My favorite part is when Tiny sings. Kaitlyn Maher's voice over and singing of Tiny is outstanding and all 13 original songs are so strong melodically that I found myself humming along to the song Blue Skies after watching it. Additionally, the various voice over and singing talents for all the other dogs are equally impressive.

The message of this film is never give up and follow your dreams. Tiny faces many challenges and tries her hardest to persevere and reconnect with her loving family.

The talking and singing dogs are created with amazing special effects. Their mouths move in perfect harmony with the words and lyrics. Also, I love the rich and emotional music composed by Brahm Wenger which draws you in from the get go. I recently had the privilege to interview the writer and producer of Pup Star, Anna McRoberts and she mentioned that this is the biggest cast of talking and singing dogs ever in one movie - 31 total. Bow Wow!!!

Out of all the Air Bud Entertainment movies, this is my favorite. We can all relate to following our dreams no matter what they are and cheering for the underdog. I recommend this film to kids age 5 to 18 as well as anyone who loves dogs – kids and adults alike. With so many wonderful things to love about this family friendly film movie, I give it 5 out of 5 pup stars! I want to share one more thing: throughout this entire film, I actually forgot that dogs don't really talk… or do they?

I couldn't stop watching it... It really wasn't very good in terms of the story line and predictability but those dogs were just so darn cute I will just watch them singing songs without any story to go along with it.
