Unleashed (I) (2016)
5/10
odd rom-com
3 September 2017
Emma (Kate Micucci) is an animal lover who looks to the stars. Her boyfriend Luke Andrews is allergic and steals her star-gazing app to make millions. She decides to get a dog and a cat, and move to San Francisco. She is befriended by Carl (Sean Astin) who gets her an apartment. She and her co-worker Nina are trying to create an astronomy program. She makes a wish and the stars turn her animals into Diego (Justin Chatwin) and Sam (Steve Howey). Diego becomes an overnight modeling sensation and Sam gets paid training a bunch of guys.

There is a bit of uncomfortableness with the faux-bestiality. It's heightened whenever Diego and Emma get too close. At least, they don't consummate the relationship. It's weird. There is no real chemistry with Sean Astin. Otherwise, this is kinda cute. I like the awkward Kate Micucci. There is some nice fun but it isn't enough.
