Lacks creativity. The first Benji was original, and each new sequel needs to be a new creation. Instead, we get the same Benji formula. Full Review |

The 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. Full Review |

A mildly pleasant, aggressively retro kidpic that should please undemanding moppets without unduly boring their parents. Full Review |

.5/4 |
Good intentions aside, the return of writer-director-producer Joe Camp's "Benji" is terminally boring. Full Review |

The 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. Full Review |
