    Great film for the entire family

    When I first started watching this film On Demand,I gotta say this film really is a masterpiece,but when I watched it again one more time,It was time for me to buy it. But when I bought the movie on DVD. It was inspiring. I have to say that the animation in this movie was excellent,and it had beautiful music. I have to say that the people who made this movie have done a pretty good job. But what this film really teaches us,is that all things have a purpose and we have to accomplish that goal. And that is why God created us, because we have to make that goal possible. But however,this film is truly a masterpiece. So if want to see something good,then this is perfect for your collection,and keep it for generations to come,and show it to your children,and their children. You will see what I mean.

    If you hated "Davy and Goliath"

    ... then you'll hate this too. The religious message is less obvious with the subtitles than it is if you understand the Korean, but you can't miss the conclusion "God has a purpose for you" - that's nice and all, but one thing I can't stand about the bible bashers is their SNEAK ATTACKS. If this had advertised itself as a religious cartoon, then I wouldn't have wasted the money or time, but instead it's billed as an "eccentric" cartoon. I'm thinking Devo, I get Pat Boone.

    Hey, if you want your religious beliefs confirmed by a cheap claymation piece of poo, then have at it. If you're looking for something interesting coming out of Korea, slug down some 'pem-ju' and rent "Old Boy

    Yeah

    So pretty much this movie was absolutely horrible. How can anyone say this was good, it was about stupid dog feces! I do not recommend this movie it is way to cheesy and it had a very bad plot and i walked away angry from watching this turd for gosh dongle 45 minutes! It was horrible. Do not show it to your kids because they might end up bringing feces back into your home from outside and play with it. It will probably be very disgusting cause it was when my children did it. They just brought back tons of this stuff and spread it all over the floor and walls and tried to sing and dance with it. The music was also very very bad even though it was catchy at the beginning it was very repetitive!

    Cute and Surprisingly Deep

    Okay.

    A Korean children's film about dog crap...? Count me in!

    I love Korean cinema, children films and dog crap. How couldn't I jump at the chance to watch this little gem of a film.

    The story starts off with a Jack Russell lookin' pup taking a dump on the side of the road. After a moment, this dog poop amazingly becomes conscious. It opens its eyes, and almost immediately, begins pondering some pretty deep thoughts.

    When talking with other characters or sitting alone, it's always pondering existence, wanting to know reason for life, or even thinking/talking about the subject of death.

    These are all very mature ideas for a children's film, but mixing it with such a vibrant and loving feel, the movie takes these issues and makes them relatable for children and adults alike.

    Doggy Poo is really quite a unique little film, due to some charming animation (most of it claymation), rather taboo ideas for a family film, and of course, it's lead character being a pile of dog crap.

    It was a breath of fresh air for this viewer, and it remains a cute little film I'm sure most people will enjoy.

    Poo Contemplates Meaning

    It is an enjoyable film. Perhaps I have a twisted sense of humor, but the absurdity of a pile of poo contemplating its existence was quite enjoyable! It was well done for what it was meant to be. What made it even better was that it was clay animation, so the doggy poo had that going for it in being a "life-like" cartoon of poo! It isn't deeply philosophical, but it is an attempt to say that "hey, there is meaning/purpose to your existence. Yes, there is a religious aspect to this film, but nothing specific - only "God has a plan for me" type message, nothing more.

    Over all, I recommend this for entertainment with a few friends, so you all can laugh at the absurdities. Although, I am considering letting my kid watch it just to see how she reacts and see where the conversation will lead from there.
