The Truth About Cats and Dogs (1996)

Rate: 7
Viewed: 11/06

11/06: My rating for The Truth About Cats and Dogs would've been higher if not for the major flaws.

I don't think the filmmakers spent enough time developing the plot. The chemistry among Janeane Garofalo, Uma Thurman, and Ben Chaplin is terrific although it's been one-dimensional.

Instead of the current direction, it should've focused more on the background and depth of the characters. The ending is also a disappointment, setting me up for an unnecessary drag in the final twenty minutes.

All in all, I like The Truth About Cats and Dogs in parts, but it's been underdeveloped most of the time.
