    [Highly rated reviewer]

    This film is a superb comedy which stars John Travolta and Robin Williams.

    The film 'Old Dogs' has a fabulous supporting cast played by Kelly Preston, Matt Dillon, Justin Long, Seth Green, Rita Wilson, Dax Shepard and Bernie Mac.

    Charlie Reed (played by John Travolta) and Dan Rayburn (played by Robin Williams) are best friends and co-owners of a successful sports marketing firm.

    Seven years ago Dan married Vicki and consequently divorced (played by Kelly Preston) after being whisked away by Charlie for a tropical vacation.

    Vicki resurfaces to tell Dan that their short marriage resulted in something he never suspected - twins Zach (played by Conner Rayburn) and Emily (played by John and Kelly's daughter - Ella Bleu Travolta).

    Vicki facing jail time for her work as an environmental activist, asks Dan to take care of the kids while she does her time.

    Of course chaos ensues !!

    Well worth watching.....

  • Funny film not to take too seriously, worth a rent.

    Rated - 4.5 stars

    Confused with bad reviews. It was a good, clean, fun, family film. I had a good laugh, yes slightly predictable at times, but more importantly just simple fun, rather than being crude or serious. It depends on your personal taste, I thought it was worth the watch, I have seen a lot worse.

  • Characterless and with no soul

    Rated - 1.0 star

    Totally characterless, charmless corporate Disney effort. Directed 'by the numbers'. Turned it off to watch the Olympics. Far, far more enthralling:-)!!

  • disappointed

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By KES7 (7 reviews) from Basingstoke , 11 Jul 2012
    This was very disappointing. What has happened to Mr Williams one of the funniest actors around. Barely a laugh here, Unbelievably bad script, no chemistry between Williams and Travolta (whomIi uaually love). Miss Travolta junior has a promising career ahead of her based on this If she is given some decent parts
