Reviews for Benji Off the Leash
So long as Camp sticks to Benji and Shaggy, his movie is, like them, endearingly scruffy. Unfortunately, too much of the running-time is devoted to the people.
Thinks a happy ending is not for the boy to get to keep the dog, but for the dog to go to Hollywood the first family film [that ends with] the father getting arrested.
This unwarranted iteration of the '70s shaggy-dog tale pales in entertainment value compared to its website, which features a rant from the mutt's creator, Joe Camp.
It’s Benji for Pete’s sake and he’s at least three times as expressive as Josh Hartnett or Halle Berry, so give a dog his due and shine that sun where it’s supposed to.
