Rottweiler (2004)
4/10
Dog Of A Movie...
6 May 2007
Rottweiler is a dog of a movie. And that's no joke. Its one of those films that just kind of meanders around for an hour and a half and then ends. Not much of a point really, just one scene to the next. Dante is arrested for a crime he didn't commit and sent to jail. he escapes and becomes a fugitive from the law. Hot on his trail, however, is a cybernetic rottweiler that is the pet of the sadistic warden Kurfa. Basically, everyone that Dante comes across becomes prey for the beast. The film is hampered as I said from a very scene to scene plot. Its just Dante stumbles across some people, interacts with them, the dog shows up and kills everyone, Dante escapes and the dog follows. There is little to no character development here. Through some flashbacks, we find out why Dante was imprisoned in the first place and his connection to the warden Kurfa. The CGI dog looks like a cross between dinosaur bones and a terminator robot and in some scenes just doesn't mesh with the actors. And as for the actors, there's not a single likable character in the movie so its hard to really root for anyone. Its too bad, cause Rottweiler could have been a cool movie. It just seems to have fleas is all.
