For one bustling Manhattan apartment building, the real day starts after the folks on two legs leave for work and school. That’s when the pets of every stripe, fur and feather begin their own nine-to-five routine: hanging out with each other, trading humiliating stories about their owners, or auditioning adorable looks to get better snacks. The building’s top dog, Max (voiced by Louis C.K.), a quick-witted terrier rescue who’s convinced he sits at the center of his owner’s universe, finds his pampered life rocked when she brings home Duke (Eric Stonestreet), a sloppy, massive mess of a mongrel with zero interpersonal skills. When this reluctant canine duo finds themselves out on the mean streets of New York, they have to set aside their differences and unite against a fluffy-yet-cunning bunny named Snowball (Kevin Hart), who’s building an army of Ex-Pets abandoned by their owners and out to turn the tables on humanity…all before dinnertime.
My friend was spot on when he said that this was pretty much a pets version of Toy Story. I still enjoyed the movie very much and there was plenty of laughs throughout. The characters were great and definitely will catch on tremendously with kids that see this movie. But it really was the same story and everything as Toy Story.
I would still definitely recommend people checking this out. It was a fun watch and is pretty much a must for anyone with kids. Although I thought that the movie would be funnier than it was it was still very much enjoyable.
