Allô maman, c'est Noël

good family movie to watch on a Sunday evening full of goodness with talking dogs and this time the kids can talk for them selves also the wife is very paranoid about her husband so it ends up like bit of fights in her dreams Gangtok dogs bogs photogenic none flapping Sedgwick fisticuff this movie is great superb amazing fantastic outstanding dog fun for many people i would recommend this movie for a family of 3 or more so you can sit on your couch while the fire is on to enjoying a good comedy plus the mum(British term) and dad are the same actors so there cannot be any confusions an if any parents think this is bad for there child's life about finding out that Santa is a fake it shows you at the end that there is a Santa clause

Well, at least this was the last they made(*no*, Hollywood, that was *not* a dare). In that they had run out of different genders of children to give celebrity voices to, they turned to the pets. This time, they give the family two dogs, one of each gender, give them each a voice and lets the kids rest their inner voices. Why is it that infants, right from the womb(which we, again, see, because there apparently can not be an entry in this franchise without that), have the voice of people who are about middle-aged, give or take a handful of years or so? Apparently, even dogs. Oh well, at least these two actors, DeVito and Keaton, aren't too bad(not that I had a problem with Willis, at least as an actor), and the former's voice fits rather well for a canine. Take that any way you want. At least Roseanne is gone... but they make efforts to make Julie as annoying without her, having her tell knock-knock jokes so lame that even the parents would ask her to stop... she also apparently fantasizes about beating Charles Barkley, who must have liked the part, as he did the same thing again three years later, in Space Jam. Dukakis shows up again, in what can only be loyalty(in a film with dogs as main characters, how fitting). Heckerling neither wrote nor directed this... when the very *creator* of a franchise steps down, you ought to know there's something wrong. There is no trace left of any charm the series ever had(which was all found in the first). I would say that the franchise by this point just has overstayed its welcome, but it could be argued that it achieved that before the end credits of the original film. More nightmare sequences, this time being ridiculous(a first for the series; usually, they were just misplaced and more unsettling than anything a young child should watch). The main conflict is essentially rehashed from the first two, only dumbed down. Lysette Anthony shows up, her acting performance being at the same level that it was in Trilogy of Terror II(that would be poor). This film will insult the intelligence of anyone beyond the age of seven, but some of the humor remains above what they will(or should) understand, or ought to watch. The very ending was almost too much. I recommend this to people who like dogs, and men attracted to Lysette. 3/10

James (John Travolta) has a new job as a pilot for a small airline. Mollie, his wife (Kirstie Alley), has just been handed a pink slip. Their children, Mikey and Julie, are dreaming about a pet dog. Thus begins the third installment of this likeable series of films. Since Mikey and Julie are now talking on their own, the addition of not one, but two family dogs is the explanation of "who's talking now". Rocks (Danny DeVito) is a streetwise pound puppy while Daphne (Diane Keaton) is a pampered poodle that is a gift of James' new boss, Samantha. Speaking of Samantha, she has set her sights on luring James away from his happy family life. Can the family adjust to life with the canines and thwart Samantha's romantic schemes?

This is a funny and fresh addition to the Look Who's Talking series. Travolta and Alley exude such charm and humor that they make a terrific comedy team. The rest of the cast is notable and the voices of DeVito and Keaton bring their doggy personalities to life in a big way. The script is somewhat predictable but still brings a smile to any lucky viewer. There are some scenes involving a wolf that may be scary for the youngest movie enthusiasts. But, on the whole, this is a fine film for the entire family to chuckle over.

At least the second film in this god-awful trilogy had the benefit of being so bad and inappropriate it was unintentionally hilarious. This scattershot, occasionally offensive, always unsettling and very dumb film is one of the most boring cinematic experiences in recent memory. The side plot of dogs, (how'd they score DeVito and Keaton, both of whom were doing much better that Alley or Travolta at this point in their carreers?), is useless; the 'dad is hard at work' subplot is just recycled from the second film, (they even use the same dream gag), and the plot doesn't really exist. And why does everyone keep ragging on Travolta's carreer? Being a pilot is no easy feat!

Travolta and Alley, who seem to get along in real life, seem to repel each other onscreen; maybe because they're platonically inclined to each other in reality; onscreen they're like two positively charged magnets pushing each other apart. On top of all that, the casual misogyny throughout is grating and extremely distasteful. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

Look Who's Talking Now is not absolutely unwatchable and certainly not the worst movie ever made, but for me it is weakest of the series. I really enjoyed the first, and while watchable the second was a disappointment. Look Who's Talking Now has its good points, such as the soundtrack and the two dogs voiced wonderfully by Danny DeVito and Diane Keaton. Plus it is not too bad visually.

However, the concept has been done to death but the story feels very tired this time around, and to further disadvantage there are one too many thin and predictable gags and weak lines in the script. Other than DeVito and Keaton the other acting wasn't so impressive, this time John Travolta and Kirstie Alley seem to be phoning in their performances as the bickering couple. And the ending was far too sentimental for my liking.

Overall, perhaps worth the look but it is disappointing for me anyway. 3/10 Bethany Cox
