Ian (Flash Review)Yes. Yes I did watch Turner & Hooch. This is not a joke. My expectations were hoping it would be better than Hot To Trot (Loooow Bar) and thankfully, it exceeded that by a rather larger margin. This is actually an OK movie and from a dog I found utterly gross from the start, by the end I sort of cared what happened to him. Hanks plays a detective about to move up in the world from a small local police department to big city action. He is a hyper rules follower, obsessed by order and cleanliness and very detail oriented. So of course by a certain circumstances, he ends up in possession of an old, large, slobbering and bull in a China shop hound with a bossy personality. The plot revolves around a local murder and the dog a key player in case. To what degree and how absurdly will the hound pester Hanks? Will he feed Hanks some clues to the case? The dog and Hanks surprisingly built a believable friendship however, there were too many scenes with Hanks in jock strap sized, Italian, Euro underwear. Overall, not as bad as one would expect.

nasimgolestani "Turner and Hooch" was an enlivening comedy makes us laugh loudly. It was a prize for me. Tom Hanks played its role admirably. However, when heroism is largely exaggerated, it loses its real influence. At the end of the film, when protagonist the dog, while dying, saves the life of Tom Hanks in the way of "the water margin", the viewer wants to cover her/himself with blanket, stop hearing and hug her/his hands and legs. The other issue in the film is the scene when Tom Hanks cuts a piece of meat into small pieces in a comical way with a tool like axes and gives it to dog, although the dog prevents eating. A question arises to my mind: why the blood of dog is not of one color? Because it is faithful? Because we can show the feeling of subjection in association with this beast and meanwhile keep calm and kind and kind-hearted? Why protests against killing of the other animals and using of their meat in a large amount and continuously, is extensively inconsiderable in comparison with protests against killing and hurting of dog? Because their meat is more delicious? Because dog is faithful and helpful in another way?

gavin6942 A detective (Tom Hanks) must adopt the dog of a dead man (John McIntire) to help him find the murderer.Looking back from today (2014), this film may seem like a fun, 1980s buddy cop movie between Tom Hanks and a slobbering dog. But when actually viewed, the nostalgia fades and we are left with a fairly average movie. Even with its star power (Hanks), this is not a very exciting film, and no better than countless other movies of its kind. For something co-written by Michael Blodgett of "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" fame, you would expect more quirks.In fact, the saving grace is Reginald VelJohnson, who makes for great comic relief. Craig T. Nelson is alright but could have used a bigger role. The romantic angle seemed completely unnecessary and should have been taken out, although it does (in some small way) help advance the plot.

iamyuno2 Tom Hanks is BRILLIANT and so endearing in this film...his performance here alone is worth watching this touching yet inventive film about a hapless man and his erstwhile dog...and the one woman who sees the gem inside the uncut rock that is Hanks' character. And, by the way, if you're an animal lover, this is one of the great animal films too. (Once you've seen it, you'll find yourself telling a dog later on, with not some hilarity, "Hey - don't HOOCH on me!")A feel-good movie that's also an action movie with a sense of humor, give this movie a try because it will entertain you and move your heart. And if you don't end up loving Mare Winningham at the end...(she's so lovable in this film - this is her best role ever)...
