Robin Williams is never spot on when it comes to movie choices. For every Dead Poets, Good Morning Vietnam, Good Will Hunting, Fisher King and Survivors you get a Club Paradise, Father’s Day, RV and License to Wed. And don’t get me started on Travolta. At this point, I’m convinced you could have really cast Arnold Horshack as Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction and it would have still kicked ass. Now, let get back to this damn trailer critique.
The bottom line is Hollywood loves to shove recycled garbage down our entertainment-hungry throats for a decent ROI and Old Dogs is no better of an example. This shit-sicle tells the story of… blah, blah, blah. Williams and Travolta are attacked by Frisbee-throwing boy scouts and homicidal penguins, while Seth ‘What’s His Name Again’ Green gets sodomized by a gorilla. If you’re ever faced with a choice between killing yourself and watching this particular movie trailer more than once, put a bullet into your brain. HD trailer, images, cast and synopsis after the jump.
What it’s about:
Dan (Robin Williams) and Charlie (John Travolta) are two best friends and co-workers. They apparently have no clue about the importance of family and what life is truly about. Dan’s ex-wife Vicki (Kelly Preston) shows up after a long period of time and announces she and Dan have seven-year-old twins: a son and a daughter. Now Dan recruits Charlie and together they have to take care of the twins and a dog. With help from a co-worker (Seth Green), they go from outdoor activities with the kids and a rough instructor (Matt Dillon), to enduring a flamboyant children’s entertainer (Bernie Mac) and eventually they will learn the true meaning of life and family.
