Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
ami3727 This movie is now (8/17/11) playing on Encore Family. I read the description and decided to watch the 1st few minutes to see if it was worth watching...it was. A heartwarming tale of a K-9 Police officer and his dog, Ace, who had saved his life before becoming his partner. The story revolves around the hunt for a serial burglar and the officer's family including 14 year old daughter who longs to become a police officer and gain her father's trust and respect as she plays detective throughout the movie. Ace tracks down the burglar but is accused of violently attacking him and therefore must be put down. It is up to his human family to prove his innocence as he does all that it takes to get back home. And of course there's the burglar who is free due to lack of evidence to take down.A must see for families and dog lovers of all ages.
lisafordeay I saw this on TV yesterday and I had no idea what it was about as I never seen this film before so I decided to check it out.The movie is based on a true story and its about a policeman named Dan(TV SUPERMAN'S DEAN CAIN) who's dog Ace is framed for attacking a criminal. The owner of course has to try and prove that the dog is innocent and as the dog is suppose to be put down the dog escapes and he tracks down the criminal for what he has done to him.The film was really well put together and the story was nice. I liked the dog as he was adorable and there was an odd scene where I would get very emotional as a lot of animal movies are very emotional to watch.If you never seen this film before then check your DVD store near you or if its on TV again check it out its good.7/10
TxMike Fairly enjoyable movie, set in Washington, filmed in Canada. I like the story presented here but was really annoyed by some of the dialog and directing that had characters doing incredibly stupid things at times to advance the plot. But overall it is a feel-good movie.Dean Cain is K9 cop Daniel Harding, he and his "shield" Ace seem to be the best. There has been a rash of domestic break-ins while homeowners are away, and the prime suspect appears to be a thug with a record, Mike Dopud as Torko. But they are having trouble pinning anything on him. Plus he uses a trick to get K9 dogs off his trail.Canadian actress, young Britt McKillip is Julia, Daniel's daughter. She is really interested in investigative things but dad keeps dismissing her. Anne Marie DeLuise, another Canadian, is good as the mother, Lilly Harding.SPOILERS: Ace gets on Torko's trail, but when the cops get there they find Torko's throat gashed and bleeding, apparently from being bitten by Ace. As this is strictly prohibited behavior, Ace is ordered put down. But he escapes and eventually works his way towards home. Meanwhile Julia finds evidence of crimes in Torko's home, while police study video that showed Torko inflicted his own wounds, and Ace was cleared. Torko goes to Julia's home to harm them but dad and Ace independently show up in the knick of time to subdue Torko. Dad learns to pay more attention to his daughter and respect her judgment more. And, mom and dad take that long postponed honeymoon.
freakfire-1 I really cannot imagine Dean Cain without tights. Every time I saw Dean, I thought about him busting out his Superman spandex costume and flying around with the dog. That would have been entertaining and made for some good laughs. No, instead we are treated to the most unoriginal and fatally flawed dog movie I have seen in a long time.Dean has a dog, whom is his partner in the K-9 Unit of his local police force. He encounters a man, whom is believed to be a serial burglar. The dog takes him down, but gets blamed for an attack because there is no proof at the time to the crook and his involvement in the current crimes. You can guess the rest after that.The whole movie is corny. Why couldn't they view the video footage until so late in the movie? Why did they let him go so quickly when they suspected him in a wave of crimes? The police can hold people for 24 hours at least until they view material in question. But no, it just gets ignored.Of course, everything turns out super in the end. There are hugs, awards given, and Dean Cain smiles. But I didn't see anything other than that that made it worth watching.Overall, this is a bad movie. Even Richard Karn and Kirk Cameron can do a better job than this. Dean Cain should be ashamed of himself. "F"
