Leave your thoughts about The Dog Wedding.
| Los Angeles TimesKatie WalshThe Dog Wedding is rather a minor effort, and the amateurish acting of the supporting cast and stilted energy are hard to forgive. |
| Village VoiceChris PackhamThe film never reconciles the incongruities of its constituent parts, which hang together like toothpaste and orange juice |
| User ReviewBoris JGood natured clever film with an eclectic mix of characters creates a cartoony film made for 13 year olds and above. The mix of a professional wrestler and a German award winning actress combined with the local actors and non actors of Arizona makes for a really endearing, funny, and a little crazy film. Somehow within a silly movie about a dog wedding there is a thoughtful story about culture, capitalism and breaking free from your parents' expectations and living your dream! You don't see this in Hollywood romcoms for sure and it is so rare to a positive film in general. There is a dream sequence which once you get to will let you know there were real creative minds behind the project. So many details in this film that make it really worth watching again and again. The music reminded me a little of the 80's in a cool way. |
| User ReviewHoward MThe Dog Wedding is an intelligent and funny romantic comedy about a wrestler who meets a German pickle factory owner in the dog run. He suggests the dogs get married. What ensues is an engaging story of romance, an overbearing father and a pickle factory experiencing a corporate takeover. It made me laugh and even cry. The very concept of an enormous American wrestler getting together with a German pickle entrepreneur coupled with their bulldogs is downright amusing. The cinematography was beautiful. The acting by both professionals and everyday people was outstanding. It is a wholesome movie with a point of view. There were some scenes in the desert.that reminded me of Antonioni. Kudos to the director for that. |
| User ReviewLola TLoved this film!!!! The Japanese elements were so unique. So many great little pieces of authenticity, + some hysterical moments, delightful dog bits, and a very powerful story about a girl trapped in her own life. This has all the makings of a really fun cult classic. I would love to see a theatre of people watching dressed up like the characters. so fun! |
| User ReviewTamir BThe best part of the movie is the magic of wrestling. The wrestling with love, social responsibility, family and living your dream. I laughed out loud and made sure I paid close attention to the business of life! Comedy with a message. |
| User ReviewSirenaloveridgeIt's really fun and smart how the story develops. The use of locals from Arizona mixed with some professional actors was really refreshing and created a really charming experience. Rare to see films about a woman in a positive role. I love dogs and romantic comedies but this was a real cinematic experience and highly recommend it to people who need a pick me up. |
| User ReviewhenkrinkleIt's a cool, quirky independent movie. Doesn't feel like the same repetitious romantic comedy that we get from Hollywood. Refreshing to see one without Kate Hudson or Ryan Reynolds. The wrestler who plays the lead is surprisingly effective. |
| User ReviewDavid BFun film! Make me laugh out loud many time. |
| User ReviewWesli SReally enjoyed this film! Saw it over the weekend. It's a wonderful friday night date film or cuddle up with your loved one on the couch (even if it is your pet) movie. Well made. Loved the setting and narrative that incorporates the history of the land. Never knew dog weddings even existed before this film! Refreshing. Made me feel great. Charming, endearing, funny, and sweet. A real treat. Grab some snacks and go for it! |
