New York is Beautiful, a Few Funny Moments, but Overall, Meh

Rating: 5/10 (14 July 2016)

New York has never been more spectacular and has fall colors New England would die for. And there are a few funny moments, the best being from the trailer where Leonard, the pampered French poodle, turns into a hard rock fiend once his owner leaves. Max's idyllic life with his owner Katie is turned upside down when she brings home a giant shaggy mutt named Duke. Max tries to shake Duke, and they both end up fleeing the pound and falling in with a bunch of vengeful abandoned pets. Meanwhile all the other pets from Max's building join forces to find them. There are wild chase scenes that are more chaotic than exciting, and none of the animal characters are particularly visually appealing. I was fascinated to find out New York has only two dog catchers and they cover both Manhattan and Brooklyn.
