From the pages of Dav Pilkey’s wildly popular graphic novels comes DreamWorks Animation’s Dog Man, a cinematic crime-fighting romp that’s part heroic pup, part human cop, and all heart. When a fearless police officer and his loyal dog are merged after a freak accident, the result is Dog Man — sworn to protect, serve and fetch, sit and roll over. Facing off against the scheming feline mastermind Petey the Cat (voiced by Pete Davidson) and his erratic clone Li’l Petey, Dog Man’s mission comes wrapped in chaos-buster action and earnest emotion.
The film’s unique visual style—textured, tactile CG that echoes Pilkey’s crafty illustration style—gives it quirky charm and broad cross-age appeal. With zany humor, big-hearted themes, and comic-book fidelity, Dog Man stands out as a must-watch for fans of graphic novels, smart family animation, and goofy heroics.
