Reviews for Benji Off the Leash
Lacks creativity. The first Benji was original, and each new sequel needs to be a new creation. Instead, we get the same Benji formula.

Top CriticHorrible, loathsome, incompetent, wretched. The worst movie of the year? Undoubtedly.

Top CriticThe movie is so earnest and sweet that to criticize it harshly would be like kicking a dog, and far be it from me to go there.

A fun and frolicsome adventure for the entire family.

This is by far the best of the Benji films, with appeal to both adults and kids alike.

Top CriticA mildly pleasant, aggressively retro kidpic that should please undemanding moppets without unduly boring their parents.

Top CriticGood intentions aside, the return of writer-director-producer Joe Camp's "Benji" is terminally boring.

Families in search of a happy ending will have to hope that the next Benji movie is "Benji Finds a Better Script."

Doggone it, I have to give this a better-than-average rating.

A family drama, and public-service announcement for your local animal shelter, that is more convincing when the four-legged performers have the screen to themselves.

All the Benji productions have had a high corn content, but in this one, even the corn is cheap.

Top CriticThe overall unevenness of tone is the movie's biggest flaw, but the slo-mo scenes of doggie derring-do are quite funny, and the message about how to treat both humans and animals evergreen.

Top CriticThe dogs are cute, the scary parts are appropriately subdued and everything works out for the best.
