Clifford the Big Red Dog
A live action version of the popular children’s book series comes to the big screen. A mysterious magical animal rescuer, Mr. Bridwell (John Cleese), pairs up 12-year-old Emily Elizabeth (Darby Camp) with a cute little red puppy. While her single mom is away on business, her homeless, irresponsible Uncle Casey (Jack Whitehall) comes to look after her. When this cuddly puppy suddenly grows to 10 feet tall over night, the comical giant canine adventures begin. Tony Hale plays the greedy biotech company owner who tries to falsely claim Clifford as his escaped project. This story is about being different and finding your voice & confidence. Rosie Perez, Kenan Thompson, & David Alan Greer are among the supporting cast. This is good family fun targeting the younger crowd & dog lovers.
Alien gives it 3 “uniting the community” stars out of 4.
