Movie Reviews of Zeus and Roxanne
Movie Review: Dog meets Dolphin
Summary: 4 Stars
I know the general consensus is that the movie is a little too "dear", but I rather enjoyed it,--So did my Great Dane Courageous, who watched it entranced. Perhaps the Dog-Dolphin connection is real!--but then what I do for a living (surgical intensive care) is so intense and so often lacking in happy endings that I take whatever opportunities arise for an emotional vacation. This was certainly that. Steve Guttenberg was his usual Mister Nice Guy--he's done that same roll several times (Three men and a Baby, Cocoon, etc.); he just says different things each time, but he along with the tropical setting were nice to look at anyway. I'm less familiar with Ms Quinlin's vita, but I thought she was quite creditable as a dedicated bio-oceanographer/dolphin specialist. Certainly the quest for the elusive grant is a theme with which I am familiar, working as I do at a university hospital. I especially enjoyed seeing veteran bad-guy Arnold Vosloo in a wonderfully comedic roll as the villianous foil of dog and dolphin. Some of the expressions on his face when dealing with the assorted animals in the film were worthy of Cary Grant in his comedy hay-day (Bringing up Baby and I Was a Male War Bride). Probably the very best performances however were given by Zeus (the dog) and Roxanne (the dolphin) who were some of the best trained animals I've ever seen. (I do hope Courageous was taking note, as he is often not the paragon of polished canine behavior!) My favorite scene was the "escape of Zeus" by means of the balcony. Definitely worth a replay.Movie Review: Great family movie
Summary: 4 Stars
What a refreshing family movie. It is so hard to find real family movies without inappropriate adult moments. This was truly a feel good movie that the whole family can watch together - with a great tropical setting. We were cheering for the dog and the dolphin.Movie Review: terrible service
