Chien & chat

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.

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.

I enjoyed it. Reminded me of Classic slapstick comedy but modernised and .. I would like to say targeted for children but it's not really a children's film. The preview did make the animation dull looking but it looked fine during the film. I laughed throughout the entire film; it has stupid antics, funny action scenes and I really enjoyed it. I really don't get the low rating.

I guess it's just a taste thing. If you like slapstick comedy, I think one would enjoy this; nothing has to be perfectly made, just has to be enjoyable and I enjoyed it.

The story is about two things: first a robbery of a ruby, which a dog accidentally swallows; and a cat, who is named 'Diva', and does in fact live up to her name. Sort of like 'Homeward Bound' but not really, just a cat and a dog on a journey to find their owners who are looking for them and they keep getting further and further away from them. Also has a sense of bonding with the two 'owners' looking for them and the relationship of the dog and cat. The dog's name is profane; I'll refrain from saying it here but I, again, quite enjoyed the film. Something to watch when you're tired of all the seriousness of the world itself.

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.

I watched it on Netflix, oh man, this movie is filled with flaws. I don't even know if it's possible to count them all.

While I am a casual fan of talking animal-themed movies, This one...had no direction. Let's go into depth about why.

The 3DCG is so obvious it will bother you throughout the whole film. It's like oil and water, they will never match or align as they will always stand out.

Movie Theme? Genre? Direction? What was it? I didn't see what exactly was the development here.

Is this movie meant to be cheezy and questionable in logic? It's like the majority of the characters here aren't that smart.
