All of this comedy's jokes are old. - 40
L.A. Weekly
It's finally a hilarious and cuddly flashback from the dog's point of view, to his training as a pup, that marks the moment when the film finds its sweetly moronic legs. - 38
Chicago Sun-Times
Movies like this demonstrate that when it comes to stupidity and vulgarity, only the best will do for our children. - 30
The New York Times
The movie equivalent of a box of Froot Loops followed by a half-gallon Pepsi chaser. - 25
New York Daily News
It's enough to encourage the aspiring film makers in the audience, no matter how wee in age, to yell "Cut!" - 25
Miami Herald
PG? Please. Might as well take a kid to Hannibal. At least that one was funnier and didn't implicate any noble breeds in its violence -- just humans. - 25
San Francisco Chronicle
Brutally dumb canine comedy. - 20
Los Angeles Times
The gags, almost all of which involve the passage of gases and liquids, move at a fast-enough clip to keep you awake throughout. For which this review expresses a sorrow as profound as the sympathy it feels for all the actors.
