Review of Must Have Dogs

Plot: A forty-something preschool teacher looks to the personals for a change of pace and a relationship, with hilarious results.

Cast: Diane Lane, John Cusack, Elizabeth Perkins, Christopher Plummer, Dermot Mulroney, Stockard Channing, and more.

Rating: Rated PG-13 for sexual content.

My Thoughts: The Movie was a very different type of love story. It was definitely entertaining, but there were times when I thought it was predictable. However, if you are looking for a Movie that doesn't require too much thought to enjoy, this is a good Movie to see. It is a comedy so the Movie often makes fun of situations that you or someone you know could be facing. However, sometimes this is exactly what is needed to get someone out of their slump and moving forward.

Parts parents might want to know about:

1. The search for a condom: Safe sex vs. casual sex

2. Multiple partners: The father in this Movie has several at the same time

3. Online dating sites: Are they safe? Who might you meet on these sites? How truthful are the profiles found there?

4. Divorce can be painful, even wh en no children are involved.

5. The entire Movie focuses on dating. Sex is talked about frequently and there are a couple sexual scenes.

What stood out to me: The Movie shows the world of online dating. Meeting someone online can be dangerous at times and parents may want to watch this Movie with their children to help them understand that online dating doesn't always turn out with the perfect partner. It also shows how difficult it can be to move on after a divorce and how one's family needs to be supportive of the individual.

The above review is meant only as a guide. It shows my observations of the Movie. The review comes with no warranty whatever.
