Old Dogs

Synopsis

Two best friends – one unlucky-in-love divorcee (Robin Williams) and the other a fun-loving bachelor (John Travolta) – have their lives turned upside down when they’re unexpectedly charged with the care of six-year-old twins while on the verge of the biggest business deal of their lives. The not-so-kid-savvy bachelors stumble in their efforts to take care of the twins (newcomers Ella Bleu Travolta and Conner Rayburn), leading to one debacle after another, and perhaps to a new-found understanding of what’s really important in life.

The Review

Old dogs is a comedy about two best friends who is about to make a deal of the century, while at the same time they’ve to take care of six-year-old twins who unexpected came into their playboy lives.

There will be insane adventures in the film, somewhat funny but predictable.

We’ve John Travolta and Robin Williams as the main lead, as much as I love these two, the chemistry is a little off.

This is a movie about one realizing the importance of family and friendship.

My advise, skip it, wait and rent the DVD instead.

The Good

• The late Bernie Mac
• Good family movie

The Bad

• The jokes was bad
• Some of the scenes made no sense
