This little film isn't a subject for serious review, being a lesser version of "Home Alone" with a dog instead of a kid, but Kevin Sorbo's bit as Quentin, a tough freelance dogcatcher, is worth checking out. His take on Quint in "Jaws" is so brilliant that I think he deserves some kind of Oscar, if only for keeping a straight face. Apart from that, the dogs are handsome and the canine cleverness may make the kids giggle (I must admit I found it amusing when the burglars' ringleader was sneaking around covered in furry toys and squeaking with each step). The real appeal is Sorbo, however-I don't think I've ever seen him in a film before, but I'll be watching for him now.
