Doggy Daycare: The Movie (2015)
Unclear Narrative
I rented this for my 2 young boys (aged 7 and 3).
But halfway through the film, I stopped it.
It was just so bad.
Even my kids were not entertained.
The filmmakers clearly assumed that by putting lots of cute dogs in the film, kids will enjoy it.
But this is not the case.
At the bare minimum, there needs to be a clear, easy-to-follow story.
This was completely absent from this film.
The narrative of the film is extremely unclear due to the following reasons:
1) Most of the film involves dogs "talking" to each other.
The problem is, we are not always sure which dog is actually talking.
Due to the fact that there are so often multiple dogs in one shot.
2) There are many dogs in the film. Some are very similar looking.
3) The human actors voicing the dogs give similar accents for multiple dogs.
All of these add up to make the film very hard to follow - and eventually you just don't care.
Often it is hard to distinguish the individual dogs from one another.
This is extremely poor filmmaking. I do not recommend this at all.
