“Dog Man” is an animated film based on the kids’ graphic novel series written by Dav Pilkey. The movie was a hit in theaters and if you missed it, well you are in luck because it is available now to buy or rent on Digital!
Chances are if you know a 6-9 year old, they’ve read the wildly popular “Dog Man” series. But what is a Dog Man? He’s part man, part dog, and all hero!
From DreamWorks Animation – creators of “How to Train Your Dragon” and “The Wild Robot” – comes the canine crime-fighting film adaptation of Dav Pilkey’s literary phenomenon: DOG MAN. When a faithful police dog and his human police officer owner are injured on the job, a harebrained surgery fuses the two of them together and Dog Man is born! As he embraces his new identity and strives to impress his Chief (Lil Rel Howery, “Get Out”), Dog Man must stop the villainous Petey the Cat (Pete Davidson, “Saturday Night Live”) from cloning himself and creating an evil kitten, doubling his evil abilities. The story takes a turn when the kitten forges an unexpected bond with Dog Man and in the process, they discover the power of family to bring even the most hostile foes together.
The film is directed by Peter Hastings and features the voices of Isla Fisher (“Wedding Crashers”), Poppy Liu (“Hacks”), Stephen Root (“Barry”), and Ricky Gervais (“The Office”).
The PG movie is fun for the whole family. Packed with tons of bonus features, you’ll want to add this to your home collection today! For those who want to purchase the Blu-ray or DVD version, it will arrive at all major retailers on April 1st.
