We got to preview the movie the other night and it was just as cute as I thought it would be. Actually to be honest, I liked the movie but it had its moments of superficiality too. The story revolves around a spoiled brat chihuahua (voiced delightfully by Drew Barrymore) named Chloe (Hey Mom and Dad how come there aren't any Harry Winston diamonds around MY neck--Where's the bling man?) who gets lost while visiting Mexico with her dog sitter (Piper Parabo-who if she wasn't so hot would be a serious waste of oxygen). Jaime Lee Curtis does a great job of playing the spoiled brat's owner and she resonates with every sterotypical trait of the crazy dog ladies we all know.
Two other dogs steal the show. George Lopez is the voice of Papi who looks a lot like me (judge for yourself below) and he helps the local landscaper dig holes. Meanwhile a street wise former police dog (Andy Garcia) does all he can to keep Chloe safe from the clutches of those who are in the dog fighting world.
Here is PAPI
And Me...I coulda been a star!

The movie will teach young people about friendship and sacrifice for on'e friends. as well as give them a few laughs.
All in all not a bad way to spend an evening. More for the kiddies than the adults the voices of Barrymore and Lopez are the real stars. Go and find your inner bark.
