Firehouse Dog (Full Screen Edition)

This is an extremely entertaining film!If you're feeling down, you should see this movie. It will lift your spirits as Dewey (a.k.a Rexx) goes from pampered Hollywood canine to a working firehouse dog, though he retains much of his Hollywood personality. Parts of the film are so funny that I couldn't help but burst-out laughing so hard my neighbors must have wondering what was going-on in my apartment. I felt so much better after seeing this film the first time that I wanted to see it again immediately. Yeah, some of the stunts are silly, but they never take away from the enjoyment of the movie. The scene where Dewey slid down the firepole made me cringe and I could feel the poor guy's pain.There are sad scenes in the film that can melt the stoniest heart, so be ready to cry. Not often, but when the tears come, you won't be able to hold them back. Tender scenes abound in this film, as Connor Fahey and his son Shane begin to repair their relationship, spurred-on by the new dog in their lives. The love between father and son, the close friendship of the firefighters at Engine 55 and everyone falling for Dewey makes the film glow with the love of the main characters for each other.The subplot reminded me a little of Backdraft which, along with the come-from-behind story of the Engine Company, makes the film suspenseful, inspiring and uplifting all at the same time. I'd advise parents not to have very little children watch the film, but kids of 3rd grade level should be alright watching it. If you collect movie posters, get the poster for Firehouse Dog, too. The poster seems to completely catch the essence of the film.An excellent film to add to your collection to enjoy for years to come!

Very helpful

Luv this show its very wholsome

Great family friendly movie. Can't go wrong with a decent plot and a dog.

This really was a fun movie with lots of excitement. I feel like it builds appreciation for what firefighters go through and also how family can be effected yet not so traumatic for our young ones. It does have some peril so for my older grandchildren its just enough to keep them riveted to the movie. Of course the star was the dog and what he was able to do, but so as not to spoil, lets just say that dog was well trained and fun to watch. I recommend this one to kids of all ages.

I have two grandsons whose matranl grandfather was a firemen as well as an EMT, Dive Instructor. He passed away from liver cancer when his daughter, the mother of my grandsons was still in high school. The boys dad and uncles are aaslo firemen and one is following in his dad's footsteps as a paid fireman for the cithy of Hendersonville, NC. They loved this movie and have watched multiple times and can almost quote the lines. It is funny with a great storyline that leaves older people like me looking past to what might have happened later with the two main Fire Chiefs, a man and a pretty woman, both single parents of two tweenie children. My grandsons are 4 years old and 2 years old so you have to know this movie is a good one to cpature their attention and make them sit to watch without ever getting up to run off to some other activity.

My almost 4 year old daughter loves this movie. She watched it 3 times. It is really cheesy and super dumb, but heart felt with a good message. Any kid who looks up to heros should watch it.

The movie was great with a very good message of the love between a young boy and his best friend-his dog!Our grandson loved it and it is hard to get him to sit long enough to watch a movie. He loved it so much we purchased a second copy for his house as well!Our grandson, age two, is very excited when he sees the fire trucks and especially Dewey ( the dog). The movie is irresistible enough he starts asking for "Dewey" as soon as he wakes up from his nap!This is a "must have" movie for anyone with a toddler!
