Chien et chat

Cat and dog is straightforward in it's description and how it plays out, but it's very odd. The main two animals in this chichi a dog, and diva a cat are CGI. They also talk and though it's a comedy I just find the way they are animated to be very offitting. Don't get me wrong though I still thought they worked well and their scenes were good. A jewel theif ends up with divas mother on a plane and both have to save their pets after they end up getting blown away. I liked the chemistry between the main stars and there were some fun parts and overall this was an overall warming movie with strange but enjoyable plot.

This movie is the very definition of a one-time watch. "Chien & Chat" offers a light comedy aimed at a young family audience, but does little to stand out. The story is paper-thin, relying heavily on clichés and slapstick humor that mostly falls flat. The two titular animals are brought to life with very average CGI, which might distract early on but becomes less noticeable as the film progresses.

The chemistry between the cast is serviceable, and some gags do elicit a smile, but they're few and far between. The police officer character tries to carry a good chunk of the humor, but ends up being more annoying than funny in many scenes. The film doesn't really take any risks, doesn't explore anything fresh, and ultimately feels like it's just going through the motions.

If you're looking for a mindless way to pass the time or entertain a child for 90 minutes, it might work, but don't expect to remember anything about it the next day.

A surprisingly witty and sophisticated spy movie spoof that will tickle adult pet lovers and still capture kids

This is a brilliant light hearted, funny and at parts sad. Movies animated characters were lovely addition with an underlying message of unity against prejudice.

A cat (pampered star) and dog (homeless ) unite to find their way back home having to endure many dangerous hurdles along the way. The story was about navigating in a world which lives are lived on social sites and popularity, loneliness.

... and there is a happy ending. It's a great film for the whole family to enjoy.

End.

In this film Frank Dubosc plays Jack, a jewel thief who's priceless ruby gets swallowed by a stray dog and now he has no option but to adopt this dog and wait until it poos out his ruby. And shortly after adopting the dog he gets chased by police officer, Brandt (Philippe Lacheau) to a crowded airport where he meets a famous cat called Diva (voiced by Ines Reg) who gets glammed by her owner (Reem Kharki) so she can post videos and pictures of her on Instagram. Unfortunately after Jack and Diva's owner board a plane to New York, Diva and Jack's dog fall out of their cages. And Jack and Diva's owner try to catch them but Diva and Jack's dog think that their owners have flown to New York so they try to make their own way there.

And at first I was enjoying this comedy but a 1/3 of the way into the film some of the jokes aren't funny at all for example I thought it was weird when the dog thought his name was poo poo because his owner kept telling him to poo. And this is followed by some really bad acting. And also by the end the really bad CGI cat and dog annoyed me.

But during the last 2/3s of the movie there are some bits of the film that made me chuckle slightly for example there is this part at the end where Jack and Diva's owner are in a van and Brandt tries to pull Jack out but he ends up getting dragged along and hit in the balls by a pole.

But overall I was only kept mildly entertained throughout the film and I probably won't watch it again or even recommend it to a kid because there's better kids films on Netflix.

Spoiled with today's generated animation, the animals were disappointing. Once i got beyond that and appreciated the movie for what it is... I found myself laughing and enjoying this light hearted movie. Relax, no one is trying to win an Oscar here. There is thought behind the story. The humor is funny, original and the acting is good. The movie I watched was dubbed so good I had forgotten shortly after it started. I hadn't heard of this movie and started watching it with an open mind. It caught my attention before long which kept me involved even after seeing less than ideal animation of animals. They kind of reminded me of the Scooby Doo animation in the movies starring Sarah Michelle Gellar & Freddie Prince Jr.
