Agent Toby Barks

I like how on the actual movie's into itself and on a streaming service its listed as Spy Dog because it thinks that its audience won't understand that the title Agent Tony Barks alongside a picture of a dog in sunglasses is about a dog that's a spy.

A bizzare mix of half-effort lazy performances and over-the-top cringe performances that'd make Channel Awesome members blush.

I particularly liked how the dog's mouth doesn't consistently move while it's talking. The final line of the movie is the dog's voice actor saying something incredibly enthusiastic while the actual dog has a look of mild fear and confusion on its face.

I'm putting this in my so bad its good movies list but... ehh it's not one of the best. It has a few funny moments but doesn't stand out as that horrendously enjoyable. If you want to watch a truly epic animal secret agent movie I'd recommend C. I. Ape over this any day. Alternatively, for a hilariously bad talking dog movie, Love on a Leash is preferable.

So this is what they decide to do to end the "Cody Banks" trilogy... they change the lead to a dog and call him "Toby Barks"?... why would anybody put their effort into making a movie like this? I just don't get it.

There are few films that have graced the cinema screen greater than Agent Tony Barks. Tony is a 'dog', but, he is not 'just' a 'dog'. He's a secret agent that saves the world from the likes of Horace the Horrible and a federal agent gone bad. It is a travesty that he was not credited in this film since it has upset his chances of an Academy Award. I do not often enjoy gritty films that are based on true events, but Agent Tim Barks really takes the 'biscuit' (or should I say 'dog biscuit' !) as one of those once-in-a-generation films that will one day be considered a classic.

The one thing that I did not like about this film was the humour, as well as the shocking graphic violence 'towards' the latter half of the movie. In addition, everyone in the film calls the old batty lady 'aunty'. This confused me as I am not entirely sure who's aunt she is, hopefully this is one of the many mysteries that visionary director Dan Hunter will explain in 'the' much-anticipated sequel, "Agent Tony Barks 2". I did not like the bit where the dog had an EMP tennis ball in his mouth. It helped with stopping the bad guys but i don't think it's fair to have animals microwave their own heads for a starring role in a movie, especially Agent Travis Barks, not okay Dan Hunter!

The cinematography of this film is epic, with an action adventure genre carefully paced with a fishing trip spoiler alert!

Otherwise, Agent Tom Barks is one of the greatest films that has ever been written, directed, filmed, and released and then on blu-ray and even on DVD. Unfortunately due to the pandemic, I had to rent this movie from Blockbuster, but afterwards I will certainly be heading to the cinema to rewatch Agent Theodore Barks.

10/10. Thanks, Tony. woof !

Im just trying to figure out if this is supposed to be a spin off on agent cody banks or not.

After seen the trailer it was a good film and i would see it with my kids..i love talking animals and all these gadgets...
