| User ReviewGena DLike, "Jack-Jack Attack," this is the rare short film that ties in to the movie's plot. It's really funny, too! |
| User ReviewKen SThis was very funny! When my family and I saw it we loved it! B+ |
| User ReviewBenjamin CLove this! Dug makes me chuckle every time. He is soooo dog. I bet my canine thinks similar. |
| User ReviewShawn SA pleasant and amusing short film, that fans of Up and Dug will adore. |
| User ReviewAlan WNice little Story about Dug. Good Animations and some good and funny scenes. It's a good Addition to the original Movie. |
| User ReviewJames RAn alternate view of the Up story; taken from the point of view of Dug the dog. This isn't as strong as BURN-E because the character isn't as inconsequential and this feels a little bit like a road runner cartoon with contrived slapstick throughout. It links in well with the main story but I got the impression that the funniest stuff that Dug could do had already been put into the main plot and that this was merely an afterthought. It's great if you've seen the film, adds a bit of backstory, but not a great deal. This film was never going to really set the world on fire and is one of Pixar's more average shorts. |
