Rock Dog easily ends up being on the "Forget Me" list for movies not because it's likely it'll be forgotten by the time the next two weeks come, but it's cheesy enough to be forgettable by the week after this movie hits theaters.

I found this movie to be not awful by any means, actually I enjoyed it pretty ok. But it's not good enough to really capture me.

But it's not good enough to really capture me. Movie follows the plot predictable at the beginning with some differences, the dad actually gives the kid a chance to try and get into music. What feels off is the script a bit, main character doesn't know what a radio is but knows about pizza? Idk that felt odd to me.

The animation is subpar for an animated movie but I never felt like it was born of the north or direct to DVD. But it's just short of being standard. The 2D animation in the beginning actually is really good.

In the end, I enjoyed it enough to rate it positively but it never gripped me hard like zootopia or half of the movies from last year. It's middle of the road ok, worth a rental or Netflix.… Expand

Every dog has its day.

Yeah, just like what we say in our country on 'made in China', a poor and cheap quality product. It seems they never ever see the bright side in this business (making products). This is the Sino-US collaborationEvery dog has its day.

Yeah, just like what we say in our country on 'made in China', a poor and cheap quality product. It seems they never ever see the bright side in this business (making products). This is the Sino-US collaboration product and as usual the film was too poor. The animation was much better than some of the B animation features. But the universe was too small, or you can say restricted for certain enclosure makes it fall in as a bad film. That's when you observe the backgrounds, you would notice how substandard it is.

Visually and basic storyline seems not much different from other animated flicks. Because it kind of reminded me many awesome films from the recent past like it either be ' Kung Fu Panda' or 'Zootopia'. All about chasing the impossible dream and an inspiring theme. But still I believe the little kids like under 6-7 might enjoy it. Yeah, this is definitely not for the grown ups like most of the modern animated films are. That's a sad part, yet some adult would find it better.

The film was built on the most common clichéd platform. A young Tibetan sheepdog is not interested in what his kind destined to do. Instead, he's very much into the musics and after inspired by what the famous musician said, he embarks a journey that would decide his fate. So how his life going to change comes with the remaining parts. There were some nice comedies, but nothing tried hard to uplift film. From the beginning itself, it was so familiar, which did not give any space for a better improvement in the later parts. An average film, maybe below that, yet watchable one. Short film though, with the nice music.

Another cliche children’s movie, predictable and forgettable, Rock Dog doesn’t bring anything new or interesting to the long line of children’s movies that have come out this year

Está bien para ver en una tarde aburrida; la trama es genérica y la animación es decente; tiene algunos momentos divertidos, pero al final se queda corta si se le compara con otras películas animadas actuales.
