Ping!

I never even heard of Ping until my 4 year old child was watching it on television, and now we have went and bought the movie and my little girl watches it all the time. we have already watched it twice today. She absolutely loves this movie and even I have actually started to like this movie and i figured i better since it looks like we are going to be watching it a lot here in the next few months. It is actually a cute movie for children. It is like a mini Home Alone show for kids. I would have to at least rate the movie at least a 5 maybe even a 6 depending on how sleepy i am. my 4 year old loves this movie and i am probably going to have to buy another because she is probably going to watch it so much it is going to get old.

OK, I will admit that this movie is a take-off on Home-Alone. I will even admit that the movie will never ever win an Oscar. BUT - if you are a dog owner, and especially a Chihuahua dog owner like I am - this movie ROCKS! It is a cute - WAY over the top movie about a hero Chihuahua who thinks it is a cat. But that isn't even the funny parts. The funny parts are when Ping "becomes" Macaulay Culkin (who named that kid anyway) and beats up on the bad guys. It is a stupid movie for most, but for us Chihuahua owners, it is a wonderful alternative to the Legally Blondes (those folks should be arrested for dressing that poor little dog - only kidding). Anyway, Ping! is a delightful movie if all you want to do is smile and giggle a few times. I myself am an action movie guy, but I do love my little Chihuahua (Dimples) so I guess you could call me soft for enjoying this flick. If it makes me smile, even once, it isn't a waste of celluloid. Laughter is a hard commodity to come by today and this flick produces a small amount of it. I own it, but then, I also own a Chihuahua - so go figure.

This is a dog version of Home Alone--stupid, but funny. I laughed out loud at parts--as when the chihuahua barked at the burglers through a megaphone to sound like a huge dog. This is a fun movie to watch when you just want to relax and laugh at something silly.

People on here are rating this movie to harshly, it's cute and it's funny, I was able to sit through and enjoy it. To me that's all that matters! I love this movie.

The stars (?) - Jones, Reinhold, and Howard must have been in dire need of new swimming pool liners to allow themselves to appear in this per- fectly dreadful and shameful rip-off of the Home Alone series. Even the voice-overs for the animals are off-character. The gag stunts, which are the raison d'etre of this genre, are pathetically uninventive and, for the most part, unfunny. Entertainment folk must eat like everyone else, but surely the people associated with this debacle could find some other means by which to fill their bellies than to empty those of unsuspecting viewers.
