Charlie @KIDCRITIC Dec 26 Watched Turner and Hooch this year. This is a fantastic 80’s movie. It is about a man named Scoot Turner who is a detective and goes to find out that a man named Ames has died and Turner has to take over the dog Hooch and go through the process of the investigation. The movie quality is good. The storytelling is awesome and the acting is awesome to see another great performance from Tom Hanks. Overall I would rate this movie a 4.5 stars out of 5 stars. My favorite scene is when Turner and Hooch are fighting over the bath. I would recommend this movie. See more Joel H Dec 16 I watched Turner & Hooch a lot when I was younger. The concept of a neat freak having to deal with a messy dog is classic comedy for a child. And while I still enjoyed seeing it again as an adult, I have to say that the premise is stretched pretty thin. It was amusing to see the fun moments that I remembered, but there’s a lot of filler in here, too. This also is part of the trend of 80s comedies with a dark underbelly of crime, which makes the tone uneven. It’s still better than K-9 (which came out earlier the same year), but Turner & Hooch isn’t the powerhouse buddy cop comedy I thought it once was.

It was pleasant enough of a film but it's more memorable for me due to the hard feelings it caused between two of the most universally recognized "nice guys" in Hollywood. See more Blu B Sep 23 You know what? Cudos to Hanks for giving it his all in this. I'm sure he knew this wasn't anything Oscar worthy but he showed up and is the best thing throughout this giving a consistently lively, physical, and energetic performance throughout. He single handedly keeps this from being bad and just harmless family fun in a sense. The acting isn't half bad but everyone else outside of Hanks is just ok. Soundtrack also is half decent and reminds me of Lethal Weapon kind of. Everything else is pretty forgettable. It's kind of got all the looks and sounds of a 89' comedy. The biggest problem is once Hooch shows up it forgets almost completely about the crime plot and is about a dog & Hanks doing stuff and the crazy laughing antics that follow. Most of the humor is flat and surface level slap stick and Hanks makes it at least watchable. It's still corny and family level stuff nothing too cringe but nothing really funny either. It's a charming sort of flat comedy. Also, the romance feels hammed in as well. I like the coastal town setting. It also gets kind of surprisingly dark in the end as well before going back to all happy and upbeat which is sort of out of place. If your a die hard Hanks fan maybe this is worth checking out but most should skip this. Plenty of better family pet movies and Hanks flicks.
