Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

thieflord09 Is it just me or did she sound like ET in the beginning? I don't like to make fun of people, but... holy crap. ET. I swear. Is she TRYING to sound ridiculous?The dog's pretty cute though. lol I was impressed by all of the things it did.The whole 'talking' thing is more than a stretch, but oh well. The electronics were a little dated, but what can you do? The odd music when PC first 'speaks' is.. interesting lol. The constant rowling and making other noises to speak was cute.I suppose it was a tad cute. I was amused by all the stuff Billy Connolly was saying as PC.

TheLittleSongbird This flawed but watchable family comedy means well and essentially it is bright, breezy and good natured. The script has its weak spots, Nathan Cavaleri is rather bland as Zac, the story is rather standard and the pace is uneven a little too rushed for my taste. But the film is enjoyable thanks to a cute and appealing little Jack Russell terrier named PC voiced brilliantly by Billy Connolly and some inspired physical comedy and action. It is nicely filmed and the direction is not that bad. Sandy Gore has fun as villainess Anya too.Overall, "Paws" has a lot of problems but it is a harmless and fun family film. I will say if you want a more adorable, heart warming and fun Australian family film I recommend "Napoleon". 6/10 Bethany Cox

Jackson Booth-Millard When I heard that a great Scottish comedian was voicing the canine hero of this film, I was quite looking forward to seeing what it is like. Unfortunately, it is not what I hoped for, in terms of a talking animals film also. Basically PC the dog witnessed the villain, French wig-wearing Samantha (Emilie François) killing his master, who in his dying moments tells him to take a disk with him. PC finds a place to hide in the house of a moved family, with son Zac (Nathan Cavaleri). But PC still can't tell anyone what has happened, so he learns to type onto a computer keyboard and speak. Zac decides to make this ability more accessible by putting a special growl translating speaker in a bow tie so that PC can talk, with the voice of Billy Connolly. The film until towards the end (well, that is bad as well) just has mucking about and too much chat. In the end, the disk reveals a treasure, that Samantha is looking for, and it has a stupid location. The only good thing about this film is Billy Connolly voicing the dog, other than that, it is absolute rubbish. Pretty poor!

p.muscat The person who wrote in from Sleepyville seems to have been doing just that during this movie... sleep! I mean, if the great Billy Connolly's witty vocal delivery didn't keep him wide awake and laughing out loud, I don't know what would! True, the movie is one for kids mainly and there are a lot of inaccuracies, but it all evolves around Connolly's sterling work on the vocals. Not bad movie at all, enhanced all the more by Billy Connolly, the Scot of the Anarcich.
