At least you don't have to cover your children's eyes and ears, 28 November 2009
5/10
Author: gmbialk from United States

I'd agree that Hollywood have really dropped the ball in the past 5 years getting good entertaining movies with some redeeming values. There has been a handful of really good ones and the rest are fillers. Old Dogs has terrible reviews, however 6 of our family members (all adults) still went to see it. Five of us gave it a good rating and one totally agreed with the critics. It's a fun, laughable movie that will at least not fill your kids ears with F and S words, body parts and sexual innuendos that they like to sneak in these days. It's not a fantastic movie, but fun. Take it at face value and go see it. It's better than a lot of the garbage out there. If you are to sophisticated to enjoy a little potty humor, don't go see it.
