Description
Directed by Brian Robbins (VARSITY BLUES, THE PERFECT SCORE), this updated spin on THE SHAGGY DOG and THE SHAGGY D.A. features Tim Allen as Dave Douglas, a Deputy District Attorney who spends way too much time at the office and way too little time with his family. His son, Joe (Spencer Breslin), feels completely misunderstood, and his wife, Rachel (Kristin Davis), feels like a single parent. To make matters worse, his teenage daughter, Carly (Zena Gray), considers Douglas the enemy because he is representing a pharmaceutical company, Grant and Strickland, in their case against her social studies teacher, who is accused of burning down their lab to protest animal testing. Douglas' life changes in an instant when animal-loving Carly brings home a friendly shaggy dog that bites the dog-disliking D.A. What Douglas doesn't know is that the dog has a secret. This Tibetan wonder dog is 300 years old, as smart as a human, and as playful as a pup. Soon, Douglas is exhibiting canine tendencies himself - a heightened sense of smell, a tendency to growl at opposing counsel in court, and an overwhelming urge to defend his front yard. His full transformation to a dog allows him rare insight into what his family really thinks and feels, and gives Douglas the opportunity to decide what is truly important. To further complicate matters, Grant and Strickland - the very company Douglas is representing - are certain that the dog that bit him holds the secret to the Fountain of Youth, and are determined to learn what it is. Robert Downey, Jr. stars as Dr. Kozak, Grant and Strickland's evil mastermind, and Philip Baker Hall plays head honcho Strickland. Jane Curtin and Danny Glover are also featured.

Editorial Reviews
Good dog. With a couple of priceless scenes as a prosecutor trying desperately to contain his inner canine, Tim Allen turns what could have been an obligatory revisiting into something worth seeing

Almost fifty years ago, Walt Disney produced his first live-action film for theatrical release. “The Shaggy Dog” went on to be one of the biggest money-makers of the year and turn into a family classic. Now the Walt Disney company has remade the film.

This time, it’s not the young Tommy Kirk that’s turned into a dog, but funnyman Tim Allen. As a strange hybrid of the original film and its sequel “The Shaggy D.A.,” this version sees Allen as Dave Douglas, a hard-hitting lawyer itching to become the district attorney. He hates dogs and doesn’t pay much attention to his family. However, when he is bitten by a 300-year-old magical mutt, he turns into a shaggy dog himself.

“The Shaggy Dog” is good, clean, silly fun. It’s not something that teenagers are going to particularly like, and it’s not your typical date movie. It’s aimed directly for the family crowd – and families with young kids.Thanks for reading
