Dogman

I cannot explain why, but this movie just moved me! The story may sometimes be illogical or a bit « too much » but there is just something about it that is worth watching.

It may be the perfect choices of music or the impeccable acting of Caleb Landry Jones.

It's just the kind of movie you have to watch at the big screen and get into it without asking yourself too many questions, just let it take you and it will.

Usually IMDb overrates and I never post a review but I saw so many negatives things without giving it its credit I just had to write something.

I get that people are angry because of Besson's history but films are a collective work.

This film is simply brilliant, whatever the fervent critics say! A great Luc Besson's movie like we haven't seen in a while. Being compared to an insipid Joker it shows how little it's been understood. Just because an outsider struggles to survive despite the horrors he has been through doesn't mean he is a Joker's copycat! Films about men with broken souls existed before the Joker! Anyway, this film is full of tenderness and poetry, with impeccable picture quality and breathtaking scenes such as the Edith Piaf's song performance: mind blowing! BRAVO and I hope Caleb Landry Jones will get an Oscar nomination, more than deserved!!

Due to the fact that I'm a Dog Lover I'm probably a little biased. However, I did think this was a well done movie. It had an "Indie" feel to it.

It also had a very heart wrenching story line to boot. I also went into this not expecting anything really. Boy was I surprised! I found myself glued to the screen. Like I said I personally am a dog lover, but this did have a great story. The acting by the main character was very good.

To be fair it is probably not for everyone, but if you are a dog lover this one is a must watch! The story illustrates just how loyal, and healing a good dog can be in a person's life. In this case a lot of dogs...lol.

I would totally watch this one again!

I finally watched Dogman and didn't expect to like it. The story was very interesting and made me curious about the ultimate fate of the main character. I think Luc Besson is quite good at writing and portraying the character of Douglas. His character also develops throughout the story and is not stuck in a certain situation and certainly not pretentious. What I like about this film is that the dialogues are quite meaningful and in accordance with the reality of human life. A little bit religious. Despite the controversy of Luc Besson, I admit that he is quite good at making films. This film is worthy and fun to watch.

This bizarre, odd drama/thriller had many critics rolling their eyes I'm disbelief, according to the reviews I read.

I found it daring, ballsy, utterly strange ,poignant and had lots of heart.

It also contains lots of cute,lovely dogs.... Caleb Laundry Jones continues his journey into playing socially detached, awkward characters and like his previous effective performance in Nitram,he isn't afraid of portraying them with a sense of sympathy either.

He's one of the best actors around at the moment.

To play a disabled guy in leg irons,dressed in drag takes courage in today's toxic,cancel culture.

The film is like a twisted version of Oliver Twist,with dogs as the artful dodgers.

The Little Big Man/Forrest Gump style setup works on showing the audience show this strange man with his'children' of dogs came to be.

Only the ending feels rushed and out of place.
