    An enjoyable third outing

    In this third K-9 adventure, Mike Dooley (James Belushi) and his four-legged partner Jerry Lee are at the end of their career with the police department and beginning a new one as private investigators. There are many humorous moments as our heroes trail some hi-tech thieves. The cop and dog pairing that made the first two films appealing is still fresh and the action keeps the pace up.

    Jerry Lee

    Our favorite crime fighting duo is back for a third installment in the series, this time after leaving his retirement party, him and Jerry Lee are walking home when they stumble upon an upscale robbery involving electronic chips, they try to stop the robbery and are foiled somewhat by the crooks, and the FBI,, Jerry Lee has swallowed one of four computer chips,, and the other three don't work without the fourth,, so his ex -boss get's wind of things, and his pension is frozen,, so out of cash he decides to breed Jerry Lee for quick cash,, he then get's a Private Investigator's license to make ends meat,, he takes on a client who is very beautiful and the chase is on.. very funny movie without a lot of dog humor,, as well as the interactions between Jerry Lee and his owner,, not as good as the first two , but definitely worth a watch.

    Enough funny, but totally unnecessary

    K9(1989) directed by Rod Daniel was a good movie, where a hard Miami cop coupled with a strange dog. The movie was supported from an exciting screenplay and the mix between action and comedy stay high all the time thanks to a great James Belushi in the lead role. After 14 years there are two sequel for the original movie: K9:11(1999) and this K9:P.I.(2002). Both of them useless, because every good points of the movie is lost, even the argument between the cop and his dog, that in the first movie were very hilarious and funny , are off and without energy. The story is totally absent, all of the movie based to the gags between the cop and the dog , that its are funny but too little for do the entirely movie on this. Because in this years the story of the dog cop have been exploit in every of his aspect and now is relegated for SitCom, TV series or actors beginners, not for a professional as James Belushi . In this new adventure the cop Dooley and his dog partner is ready to the retire, but they are involved in a case of steal a microchips, and till to the guilty going to discover the retired is frozen. The plot is totally undeveloped and it stay only a idea for all the movie, Belushi is off, but he heave not materials to work, and he seems only a caricature to the fascinating cop on first `K9'.Belushi is a great actor, his character in movies as `The Principal', `Dimenticare Palermo' or in comedy as `Taking care a business' and the nostalgic `Mr Destiny' were the work of a professional and good actor, but it's a real sin that you see spoiling this talent in this sequel for the video. Ultimately Belushi is relegated to the TV and video production, but I think that he heave the quality for back on the cinema, I hope that some good director succeeded to emphasize. Now Belushi is on the set to the movie `Easy Six', a independent production directed by Chris Iovenko where he play the role of Elvis Presley. It seem a good return, I good hope.

    So-so and inferior sequel in which Dooley's ready to retire from the police force while with his dog investigating some chips robbers

    Having spent many years in the police force, Detective Dooley -James Belushi- , eventually retiring, as he says goodbye , while his colleagues celebrate an unforgettable farewell party for him . However, he was not particularly happy free time that awaits him , that's why he loves his job . On his way home him and his partner Jerry dog discover a robbery in the laboratory for assembling chips . In conflict with the thieves , Jerry will swallow one of the stolen chips .One's just a little smarter than the other ! . Buddy movie about a special couple , a cop and his dog! .Dooley and his K-9 partner Jerry Le. Meet the two toughest cops in town , one's still a little smarter than the other !.

    The picture talks about James Belushi , the peculiar Detective Dooley and his K 9 partner , but before he can retire with his pension he must work as a P. I. to find a set of high tech computer chips . Dooley is a quirky policeman who develops lonely his mission , only accompanied by his faithful dog Jerry Lee that was played by Rando, a 3-year-old German Shepherd from West Germany and trained for 3 months , along the way they will have to confront deal of dangers while chasing some chips burglars. The picture is a particular buddy movie because the starring are one person and one dog , the comedy and giggles regarding both of them are continuous . Over 40 dogs were considered but none of the American German Shepherds were deemed suitable . A year-long search was held to find the right dog for the role . The dog chosen , Rando , learned to understand commands in English . There's a previous picture concerning to similar theme upon policeman-dog relationship : ¨Turner and Hooch¨ , both of them are similar , though I think the best results to be the film featured by Tom Hanks. Furthermore, Top Dog (1995) by Aaron Norris in which Reno The Dog pairs up with tough cop Jake : Chuck Norris in thwarting a criminally terrorist organization.

    The flick blends humor , action-packed , pursuits , tongue-in-cheek , it has fun but there are moments that is a little boring but when the dog appears is amusing enough . The trilogy is made up by the following ones : ¨K9¨ ,concerning the police chief : James Handy assigns him as couple , a hound dog with the aim to track down an important drug peddler : Kevin Thige , while his his fiancée : Mel Harris is abductedThe film obtained success at the box office ; however , ten years later , the same starring James Belushi and the dog (or different dog because had deceased) made a second part what failed and was direct-to-video . In this sequel title K 911 (1999) by Charles T Kanganis to the action comedy K-9, Detective Mike Dooley and his trusty canine companion Jerry Lee get two new partners - a Doberman Pincher named Zeus and his new trainer in which a stalker, disgruntled crime novelist became obsessed with Dooley's wife after she rejected his book, and he blames Dooley for her death , being starred by Belushi , Christine Tucci , James Handy , Wade Williams, J. J. Johnston. Subsequently had a third part this K-9: P. I. (2002) that was another flop . The yarn was regularly directed by Richard J. Lewis , a notorious director and productor of TV series : Penny Dreadful: City of Angels, Westworld , Battle Creek , Person of Interest , Falcone, CSI, The City , Traders , Power Play , Due South, Super Boy, Little Men , Michael Hayes, Alfred Hitchcock presents , among others . The flick will appeal to action comedy buffs and dog lovers. Rating : Average 4'5/10.

    Slow-going

    Dooley (Jim Belushi) and his canine partner Jerry Lee are back for a third go-round in K9:PI. This time, they are battling thieves over some stolen computer chips in a plot so thin, it makes Belushi look extra fat. Also, Belushi is now retired from the police force and working as a private investigator, hence the title. The excitement and action and comedy of the first movie are long gone, replaced by endless flatulence and poo jokes. K9:PI is passable, but barely. The first half, about the chip robbery and Dooley accidentally getting involved, is more entertaining than the second half, during which Dooley "pimps" Jerry Lee in order to make some money when he finds his pension temporarily frozen. As this subplot drags on and on, the action really dies and barely picks up in time for the end. And I wasn't kidding about Belushi being out of shape in this. He looks terrible.
