Un chien envahissant

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.

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.

"Hounded," a Disney Original, naturally has become a staple of the Disney Channel. Watch it only if you have absolutely nothing better to do. No -- don't watch it --stretch yourself and find something better to do. A lot of what the Disney Channel runs is pretty inane and forgettable. That goes double for "Hounded." Except that there is something very disturbing in what the makers of this film consider humorous. What I'm referring to is how the little dog, deprived of his medication for a behavioral problem, becomes very vicious, goes berserk, wrecks the house it's in and attacks people. Much of the dog's behavior falls into the category of "cartoon violence:" a Pomeranian obviously can't punch a hole through a door nor can it fly. The film makers might have succeeded a little more if they had stayed with that. But no -- time and again the dog attacks the boy who is stuck in the house with it and all that it looks like is a snarling little dog viciously biting a boy. Man, that's funny. That scene alone should take "Hounded" off the list of movies suitable for small children. Are we to the point that parents of small children have to be wary of the Disney Channel? C'mon Disney -- can this one.

Most of the disney original movies are pretty decent, some are even surprisingly good. This is not one of them! This movie is a total waste of time for anyone over 5. The plot is weak, the situations stupid, overdone and downright boring. I can't believe Neil Israel did this movie. Did he read the script before he decided to do this project?? I'm sure that disney was counting on the strength of their lead, Tahj - a very watchable and likeable actor, but there is just nothing else in this movie. It's flat, boring and basically an all around pathetic effort and has nothing to offer that isn't contrived and/or stolen from some much better movie. I'm guessing the only positive reviews will be from 10 yr old girls with crushes. This is by far the most disappointing of the disney orig. movies that I have seen so far. Shame on you disney, the trash bin is the one located next to the recycle bin, use it next time you have a project that just didn't work in the end.

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. :)
