How have people not made this connection?
An officer of the law, mortally wounded in the line of duty, but brought back to life with an experimental method.
Robocop.
Dog Man.
But this is an appropriate kids movie, not some 1980's bang-bang, shoot 'em up.
It's fast.
It's short (thank goodness!) only an hour and a half (Yes!!) perfect and what a kids movie should be. Short.
It's beautiful and vibrant. Lots of beautiful and slick colors.
Great music: Hank Williams. Hank Williams SENIOR. Miley Cyrus and John Mayer.
Solid voice acting.
Good humor.
Decent story.
The kids will love it and that's what's most important.
I could see this film being really popular once it hits streaming for endless and repeated viewings.
It's an easy watch.

The first thing you'll notice when you watch a trailer of this movie, or the actual movie itself, is the art style and animation. It's really well done and does a great job of matching the child-like aesthetic that the books this movie is based on had to offer. Watching it felt like watching the comics come to life on the screen.
Another big thing I noticed was the pacing of this movie. A lot of people might get turned off by how breakneck the pacing is, with major events being added around every 5 minutes. But, in my opinion, this is a good thing because thats how the books that this movie was based on are. And with the brisk pacing also comes some surprisingly funny scenes. I didn't expect to laugh this much to a lot of the childish humor but its executed in an amazing way and never feels dull or repetitive.
Overall it's a great movie, but it might be too confusing to people who haven't read the Dog Man comics because it skims over a lot of important information pretty quickly.

Dog Man is absolute amazing and fantastic Dav Pilkey and Peter Hastings have fun making this film, the Action the comedy joke scene and even a-lot.
The Villain Petey The Cat is Absolutely Amazing Pete Davidson did a good job doing it though, the Chief was so good he make me laugh i think Rel did a good job too though and Sarah Hatoff was pretty good though and Isla Fisher once again... did a amazing job too on voicing the character though i like her, but Li'l Petey was so cute i almost cried he was so cute though.
DreamWorks thanks you for making this good movie it's was a blast! 10/10 nice.

What an incredibly weird and unique cartoon! Took my toddler daughter to see it and she was glued to the screen the entire film. The voice acting was on point and the animation was cool and different.
I didn't know how I felt about such a strange premise for a film, but it was written really well. Also, there was a short film before it called "The Bad Guys", which was hilarious and the perfect intro to the film. I don't know that it was on par with the original "Shrek" or "Prince of Egypt", but it's definitely worth a watch, especially if you have kids in the household.
In conclusion, check this film out; you won't regret it.

- TriviaThe number the Mayor gives to Chief is a real phone number. It even repeats the same words as in the film.
- GoofsWhen the Mayor tells the Chief to call a number on a card, the phone is clearly a rotary phone. When he goes to dial, he is pushing buttons rather than rotating the dial.
