Disappointing.

Rating: 5/10 (19 July 2016)

I was going in with high hopes and expectations when I saw the trailers for this movie and I thought it looked pretty funny and I think Kevin Hart is hilarious in movies like Ride Along. And I heard people say that Louis CK is pretty funny and was influenced by the late great George Carlin. So I was thinking to myself "This should be good." So then I went with a group to see Secret Life of Pets. The film had a lot of hype and was highly anticipated, but however it didn't exactly live up to the hype. I mean, yeah there were some funny scenes in the movie, what the problem was they were already spoiled in the trailer. Now I don't mind repetition put the elements in this movie we have seen before in previous animated movies like Toy Story, one of my all time favorites since I was a child. For instance a dog being jealous of another dog taking over the household and the new dog missing his former owner. The part with the animals talking about killing their owners was inappropriate for a children's movie, especially for one like this. This movie is no way a bad film by any means but compared to other options out there like Zootopia, this movie does not offer a lot to recommend unfortunately. This became an easily forgettable film I didn't remember after a few weeks or even days. If you're an adult looking for a quality animated films give this one a skip. It's probably for the best.
