The Duke (1999)
10/10
Wholesome & Silly
11 June 2023
Watching this as an adult who loves dogs, I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a whimsical movie that anyone who doesn't take themselves too seriously can appreciate.

For me, it's a great watch when you're in the mindset for something wholesome and palatable, especially if you're a dog lover! When my head is in a bit of a dark place, this is one of those safe comfort movies that will always be able to cheer me up.

Regarding the film itself, without spoilers, there were many subplots to keep up with. This helped the pace of the movie, along with the many doggie shenanigans.

My favorite part of this movie is the dog "acting". It's clear these dogs are well taken care of, well trained, intelligent, and happy performing their tricks. I noticed many scenes included the dog "actors" tail wagging while performing their tricks. All in all, I highly recommend this movie to anyone.
