Turner & Hooch (1989)

Nothing super fantastic but this film holds on its comedic value. Seems also good for an evening easy with the girlfriend. Tom Hanks definitely had the chops and shines even in this romance. Bravo!

Tom Hanks was, at the beginning of his career, an actor very focused on light and quickly forgettable comedies. This would only be one more if it did not have the support of a furry friend who shows to be absolutely irresistible: the dog that plays Hooch. The way Hanks irritates himself about the dog is very funny, as is the way the dog turns the life of Scott Turner (Hanks' character) into a nightmare. Turner is an organized cop, very methodical and neat, and Hooch totally destroys his furniture, his things and even his car. All this happens in the middle of a larger plot in which the death of the dog's previous owner is investigated, a murder whose only witness is precisely the animal. The ending is quite unexpected and deeply moving. Hanks has been well throughout the film but the dog is clearly the star here. It's not a fabulous movie or a work of art, but it's a great movie to watch with the whole family, it's sure to make everyone laugh.

A detective must adopt the dog of a dead man to help him find the murderer. Seriously a 6.0 out of 10 really? even K-9 with James Belushi has a 5.9 what were they thinking honestly? This is a great funny movie since Hanks adopts the dogs he starts eating his whole house, destroying shops and shoes and the movie is actually funny for the most part i thought that it was a movie around a 8 or 7 but i was wrong the film wouldn't have work without Tom Hanks excellent performance but also the performance of the Dog. Also i didn't see the ending coming i really didn't if you love dogs and animals in regular you might actually cry or just feel sad Turner & Hooch is easily one of Tom Hanks most underrated movies ever!!!

"Turner and Hooch" was an enlivening comedy makes us laugh loudly. It was a prize for me. Tom Hanks played its role admirably. However, when heroism is largely exaggerated, it loses its real influence. At the end of the film, when protagonist the dog, while dying, saves the life of Tom Hanks in the way of "the water margin", the viewer wants to cover her/himself with blanket, stop hearing and hug her/his hands and legs. The other issue in the film is the scene when Tom Hanks cuts a piece of meat into small pieces in a comical way with a tool like axes and gives it to dog, although the dog prevents eating. A question arises to my mind: why the blood of dog is not of one color? Because it is faithful? Because we can show the feeling of subjection in association with this beast and meanwhile keep calm and kind and kind-hearted? Why protests against killing of the other animals and using of their meat in a large amount and continuously, is extensively inconsiderable in comparison with protests against killing and hurting of dog? Because their meat is more delicious? Because dog is faithful and helpful in another way?
