My Review-

While this is not Tom Hanks' best movie it still quite an enjoyable one, mainly because of the dog in the movie. This whole movie was set on the relationship between Tom Hank's character and the dog named Hooch. It did not matter what the storyline was about really just that these two had to get along, almost like an odd couple of sorts and during the course of the movie you fell in love with the Hooch just like Hanks did. This is not a movie to be watched twice or maybe it is granted that it only be once in a while. this clearly shows how far Tom Hanks has come from being a dog watched to an Oscar winner. I guess all actors have to do bad movies then start winning Oscars, then again some wont.
