Cinq Toutous prêts à tout

My 7-year-old daughter loved it, as Disney execs crassly calculated that she would. That's the problem with "Air Buddies." It's a strictly by-the-numbers children's film filled with carefully calculated cuteness, a couple politically correct morals, and enough potty humor to avoid the dreaded G rating. As a parent, or even as a 10-year-old, you've seen it all before, and done better before. Think "101 Dalmatians Meets Home Alone" and you get the general idea. I'm of the opinion that a good children's story is a good story, period. "Air Buddies," which is about as original as recycled paper, fails to meet that standard. It isn't the worst video your child could watch, but there are megatons of better ones.

Cute and for the age, great visual effects but its just a movie to watch with kids, not serious. Funny tho.

I saw this movie yesterday with my sister and honestly i gave this movie 8 just for the puppies (they were adorable). The plot of the story is nice but it's nothing new. I liked the dubbing in my language (Italian) and the puppies were really gorgeous but at a certain point the film started to tire me and it became a bit obvious.

Five ways to make a film successful, no matter how the film really is:

1) Have tons of nudity. The very next moment, the movie is a blockbuster.eg. Showgirls (I heard many adore the movie)

2) Let it be based on a superhero. Superhero movies have mystical powers to captivate the attention of the audience. Eg. Spiderman, Fantastic 4, Transformers

3) Action does it all. Include guns, detonators and all kinds of weapons and have a boom film. It attracts teen boys and guys.

4) Star power: Make Denzel act in a Z-grade film and the next day, the Z transforms into an A.

And 5

Make it a cute movie, like this one. Easier way is to include adorable dogs. This formula woks well all the time as there are a number of avid dog lovers like me who would swarm over to watch this film.

I was a bit ambivalent whether this film would be good enough, as some movies based on dogs have been a bit too sweet. This one too leads the league of sweet movies.

Frankly speaking, the story could've been a lot better. The tiger thing would normally be present is a B grade flick. The voice acting could've improved. Some of the dogs were funny but the voicing of the Sheriff dog was bad.

Even the Sheriff dog's lip movements looked unreal. The puppies were really cute, especially Buddha, who was funny. But the names of some could've been somewhat more different. For example, 'Rosebud', 'Mudbud' and 'Budderball' had so much 'bud' present. Instead of mud bud, they could've kept mud-'something else.

It was edited for obtaining 'G' rating but it could've had a variety of jokes that could be rated G but were a bit more mature.

Overall, it is a cute film that would be liked if you keep in mind that it is meant to be cute only. 5 out of 10.

Buddy and his girlfriend Molly are back, but this time they can talk and the couple has five puppies. When the dog and his beloved are kidnapped, leaving their owner Noah very sad, the rescue mission will be precisely in charge of this true fantastic quintet: the chubby Budderball, the dirty Mudbud, the meditative Bud-Dha, the amiable RoseBud and the rapper B-Dawg!

As usually happens in my life, I started at the end to finish the franchise with the first film, which explains how the donations of the puppies were made to each of the characters that in the last film act together, the humans, cute, the puppies franchise went to more interesting than Bud dad... Just a little dull and always More of the same...
