Product Description

John Travolta and Robin Williams star in Old Dogs, the hilarious family comedy that will have you howling. Two best friends have their lives turned upside down when they're unexpectedly charged with the care of seven-year-old twins while on the verge of the biggest business deal of their lives. The clueless bachelors stumble in their efforts to take care of the children, leading to one debacle after another, with a gorilla and some pecking penguins -- and perhaps to a newfound understanding of what's really important in life. Featuring a riotously funny supporting cast including Seth Green, Kelly Preston, Matt Dillon and Lori Laughlin, Old Dogs is a laugh-a-minute comedy filled with heart. Bonus Features Include Deleted Scenes, Audio Commentary By Director Walt Becker, Producer Andrew Panay And Writers David Diamond And David Weissman Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Who says you can't teach Old Dogs new tricks? Robin Williams and John Travolta are the old, single "dogs" in question, reveling in great chemistry as lifelong pals who've together grown a successful marketing empire--but who have somehow managed to avoid ever really growing up. The cast, featuring Travolta's real wife, Kelly Preston (who, with costar Rita Wilson, reveals just how fine a comedian she is, and how the screen really sparkles when she's on it), and his real-life daughter Ella Bleu, is top-notch. Other great performances include Bernie Mac, a sultry Lori Loughlin, Matt Dillon, and a dynamite Seth Green as a mini-mogul in training. The plot revolves around the Old Dogs' suddenly needing to care for twin 7-year-olds (the heretofore unknown children of Williams's character, Dan) and finding that they learn as much from the kids as vice versa. Moans Dan to Travolta's Charlie, after awkwardly tucking in the kids for the night at Charlie's bachelor pad, "I just shook hands goodnight with my daughter." Old Dogs is a fun family film that's appropriate for ages 8 and up, with enough jokes and great timing to please grownups too. --A.T. Hurley

• We loved this movie

My husband and I went to see this movie this weekend and we both loved it. We laughed out loud several times which I consider a must for a successful comedy. I was pleased to find that there was plenty of fun throughout the movie rather than the only funny parts being those that were advertised on TV, which seems to happen often with comedies. The part where they got their medicine mixed up was predictable (you knew it was going to happen somehow) but very funny nonetheless. I thought it was neat how they incorporated flashback scenes in the movie and those were funny as well. I also enjoyed the beginning where they took old pictures of both Robin Willians and John Travolta and put them together to show them as friends since childhood. As someone who remembers Robin from his Mork days and John from his Welcome Back Kotter days, that was a lot of fun. I was also reminded why I had a crush on John Travolta back in 6th grade. His is still pretty easy on the eyes. He has the talent to play a bad guy or a good guy. He plays the good guy great in this movie. Robin William's talent goes without saying. The movie was appropriate for families. My 12 year old son would have loved it. The kids were cute and did a good job. The little girl is Travolta's own daughter and she has her fathers beautiful eyes. If you are in the mood for a fun comedy to enjoy then I highly recommend this movie.

• Really, a bad movie you say?!

Wow, I can not believe so many people hated this movie. It is a fun
family film. My mom and I went to see it and we laughed through out
the movie, as did the other people in the theater. It's about 2 men who
are in buisness together. One day, one of the men find out he has two
kids with a lady he met a long time ago. The lady has to go away for 2
weeks and she can not find any one to watch her kids. The man tells her
that he will do it. It's hard for him at first. I mean, he never had
kids and isn't good with them when he is around them. He learns what
thing should be and are most important to him in life. If you take the
movie to seriously then I guess you could find fault with it. That
though is the case with any movie. Go see this with your kids or just
with friends or other family. If you just sit back and remember that is
is a disney family movie, then will should have no problem laughing and
enjoying yourself.


I am 24 and my mom 19 years older. We both laughed many times during the movie. Just relax and watch. I can't wait to buy the movie when it comes out on DVD. I look forward to watching it with my grandparents. Maybe one day I'll get married and have a kid or two. Then I will get to enjoy the movie with them as well.
