Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzIt was the first film to make $1 million.
User Review - 10/10 by Paige MHilarious! One of Chaplin's best and not even one of his features. There were parts in this where I couldn't stop laughing. Amazing.
User Review - 10/10 by Hans J. EThe best in "the Chaplin Revue", with a story that felt like a prototype of either "The Kid" or "Modern Times" when it comes to the bond between the 2 main characters(In this case, a dog). Many genuinely funny moments, and maybe has the happiest ending of all Chaplin's works.
User Review - 10/10 by Benjamin WChaplin's first "three-reeler". Chaplin is great in this. The story is good, too.
User Review - 10/10 by Philip RThis sweet hearted early short film by the legendary Charles Chaplin is a classic mix between drama and comedy. In only about forty minutes the audience is treated to some of the shenanigans of the Tramp as he rescues a stray dog, subsequently taking care of it while later trying to woo a love interest. I found it funny and keeping with Chaplin's classic humor that would become a trademark of his work throughout his silent film years.
User Review - 8/10 by Dave JMonday, January 9, 2012 (1918) A Dog's Life SILENT COMEDY Very amusing Charles Chaplin short clocking in at 33 minutes dwelling on him bonding with a stray dog. The sight gags are ingenious and influential especially toward two muggers at a drinking bar. 3 out of 4
User Review - 8/10 by nicolas mCool short by Chaplin, which isn't at the level of his big works, but is still an amazing start for one of the best careers in history of cinema.
User Review - 8/10 by Kenneth SThe Little Tramp finds a stray dog and takes her along on some adventures at a local bar.
User Review - 8/10 by Wesley TThe package starts strong with a thirty minute short featuring Chaplin as the tramp who comes across a stray dog. The symbolism is obvious, the life of the tramp is related to the life of the dog. The film takes place almost entirely within about one city block as the tramp is chased by cops and gangsters. It?s a very gag dependent film with a lot of really clever physical set pieces and chases, though the film falters at one point with a gag about a woman crying all over someone. The filmmaking is quite strong for something made during the Woodrow Wilson administration, a good start to my journey through the films of Chaplin.
User Review - 8/10 by Mary HThe cutest dog ever on film, and Chaplin's first attempt at a feature length film rather than a short. It definitely leaves you wanting more, but is a nice stepping stone for things to come.
