Dog Days Review


Dog Days is one of the most mediocre movies of the year.  This movie is about a group of people in Los Angeles who are brought together by their love for dogs.  Nina Dobrev gave a good performance. Vanessa Hudgens gave an okay performance.  Finn Wolfhard gave a great performance. Adam Pally and Thomas Lennon gave hilarious performances in their respective roles. I was not a fan of Eva Longoria’s performance; her character did not work for me.  Ken Marino’s direction is competent albeit unspectacular.  The script is an extremely mixed bag. For every genuinely funny moment, there is an equally cringe-worthy moment.  The characters range from fun and likable to extremely annoying.  My biggest flaw with this movie is the pacing. At 112 minutes it moved extremely slow and felt closer to three hours long. Overall Dog Days is mostly watchable, but has too many flaws to earn a recommendation.
5/10
