Old Dogs
By admin on Dec 9, 2009 | In movies
There are alot of funny parts in this movie but the overall my impression was just ok. Robin Williams and John Travolta are both very good and funny actors. I liked the movie but the storyline was a little weak. Wild Hogs was a much better movie and John Travolta's character was much better in that than in Old Dogs.
To tell a little about the movie, Robin Williams who plays Dan and John Travolta who plays Charlie are best friends and business partners. They are on the verge of thier biggest deal ever that would bring them the success that they have been working for. Dan (Williams)is the more serious of the two and pines over a brief relationship that he had with Vicki, played by Kelly Preston, seven years earlier.
Vicki (Preston) is going to jail for a couple of weeks for an activest crime. Before she goes to jail, she tells Charlie that he is the father of her twins. One boy and one girl. Her best friend was going to watch the children while Vicki was in jail but was injured inadvertently by Charlie. Charlie then has to take the children for the time that Vicki is in jail.
As I said there are some very funny parts to this movie. The best part is when they broke into the zoo. That is shown on most clips on TV but there is more to it. It is kind of a romatic comedy but more comedy than romance. Plus it is really hard to see Kelly Preston and Robin Williams together when everyone knows she is really married to John Travolta.
I think the movie is worth seeing. You will laugh out loud. Seth Green who plays Ralph White has some pretty funny parts too. He has a great supporting role in this movie. All in all I would say seeing this movie would be a good date.
