Featured reviews
Normally I am not much for any movie that features an animal and as a result I avoided watching this movie as long as I could. However, since my grand daughter and my wife watched it over and over for months it was inevitable that I would be exposed to it. What a joy. To my surprise it was a parody, and a clever one at that. Once I realized the film was a spoof and being played for laughs I couldn't stop laughing. The well written script and hilarious sight gags make this fun for adults and children. However, I do have one complaint about the writing. Why was the limited profanity in the script? It adds nothing to the movie and worst of all is not funny. I can't believe that a guy like me who likes "Pulp Fiction" would be making this complaint, but without the needless profanity this is a perfect family movie. Profanity aside "Bingo" is a hoot.
"Bingo" is at times comparable to just about every other "boy and his heroic dog" film ever made. Its only problem is that it doesn't do the genre right. There are more absurd moments of Bingo's comic mischief than actual adventure throughout the film. Children under eight years old should really enjoy this but there is a huge chance that anybody older than that might snooze.
A film that is just thrown together to make a few quick bucks from parents of very young children who don't realize how awful it is. The adventures of a dog are followed in this tedious film-watching experience. Terrible acting does nothing to advance the story that feels like it was thrown together by toddlers after watching an episode of "The Teletubbies". Full of fleas. Turkey (0 stars out of 5).
This movie is a great feel-good movie.
Bingo the dog is particularly funny.
The dog is as good as Lassie or any other acting dog!
The dog probably deserves an Oscar!
The beginning of the film starts pretty quickly, which is goods as the plot gets going straight away.
Bingo the dog keeps you entertained throughout until the middle of the movie when the other characters begin to take affect.
It would be funny to see the dog play bingo online or mobile bingo, but alas he just generally does tricks, and acts a bit like a human dog would.
This is a great kids movie, particularly for anyone that owns a dog.
For anyone that likes to play bingo, then this film is not for you, as it has nobody playing online bingo, mobile bingo - or even going down to their local hall to play.
We recommend this Bingo film, as much to see the funny dog as anything!

This cur has a better command of the english language than some folks I know. There was no problem he came across that was insurmountable: the pup was a plain canine genius. A kid's film all the way because, although I like smart animal shows, this was just too, too lame for an adult to sit through without some serious squirming.
Did you know
- TriviaA scene with Bunny shown in the trailer did not make it into the theatrical release. It shows her throwing raw hamburger onto a window which Bingo is looking out with her saying, "raw meat". The context for this joke is unclear.
- GoofsWhen Chuckie is being held in the warehouse, the rope moves around in between shots. Also in one scene it is wrapped around him five times, but in every other scene it's wrapped around him four times. He very obviously is untied and tied up again in between shots.
