Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
axapvov I guess I had forgotten who Todd Solondz was when I decided to watch this movie. I remember now how much I hated "Happiness" and it seems the psychopathic film maker hasn't really changed and continues to exploit his trademark of depressive characters and deadpan so-called humor. If people are buying why would he stop?In this, the dog is supposed to be an excuse to link different stories but practically the only time you will notice the dog is in the intermission, a lame trick to stop even trying to connect any story of any kind. After that, he feels finally free to do what he likes the most: showing disconnected, half-assed stories that don't go anywhere. If you can't get good, get bleak, he most probably believes that. Every single character in this is the saddest ****. There aren't nuances of any kind, everything is ****, no redemption, no nothing, everyone is either a loser or a moron. The worst part is that vision doesn't even feel honest, or convinced, but more like a trademark he maintains cause he can't think of anything else.This guy hates his characters and his audience almost as much as Haneke. Both are up there as my most hated directors. The difference is I respect Haneke.
vonnieglen33 If you love Wiener-dogs you should never ever watch this movie. It is just awful how this poor dog was treated from the very beginning of the film. Every character was completely ignorant of how a Wiener-dog should be treated. The entire movie was maddening garbage. Anyone who can watch this movie and derive some type of enjoyment should really go see a therapist.
areatw Well, what a let down. Here's me expecting a feel-good, laugh out loud comedy about a dog and instead I get a dull, boring and almost entirely laugh-free drama in which, towards the end of the film, the dog hardly even features. 'Wiener-Dog' couldn't have been any more uninteresting if it tried.The problem is that none of what is happening in this film has any purpose. None of it leads anywhere, it's just one pointless story after another. The dog is completely irrelevant for the most part of the film, only at the start does the dog feature centrally in the story. A big disappointment and huge waste of time.
Al Hansen This is a terrible movie. Poorly scripted, poorly shot and poorly paced. It's trying to be a black comedy, but it's just a mess. Not worth the time it takes to watch it. Unsatisfying and not funny on any level. Also, kind of misleading in the way it's marketed. Definitely not suitable for family viewing.
