Ein Hund namens Beethoven (1992)

Ein Hund namens Beethoven: Directed by Brian Levant. With Charles Grodin, Bonnie Hunt, Dean Jones, Nicholle Tom. A slobbering St. Bernard becomes the center of attention for a loving family, but must contend with a dog-napping veterinarian and his henchmen.

“If you take yourself too seriously, Beethoven will either gross you out or provide a great, relaxing dose of psychotropic slapstick. It is frequently TOO MUCH, and then again, canu0026#39;t get enough of the gorgeous St. Bernard actors. The honesty of the human kids; the exquisite changes portrayed by their dad, Charles Grodin; the down-to-earth Bonnie Hunt (until her disappointing emergency phone call); and– You will find yourself thinking, u0026quot;Hereu0026#39;s the puckish Stanley Tucci–u0026quot; u0026quot;Oliver Platt–master of deadpan.u0026quot; u0026quot;David Duchovnyu0026#39;s comic range is really broad–WOW.u0026quot; There is also a fine supporting cast of dogs, and i canu0026#39;t even watch the villain, heu0026#39;s so evil. A roller coaster ride that doesnu0026#39;t knock your rug off or mess up your do, with fine irrelevant complexities to keep you from falling asleep too early, i.e. before the kids do.”
