Supelice Dreadfully Boring
Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Allan Jeffreys Wilfred isn't your usual comedy, The hero Wilfred is a guy in a dog suit. Wilfred behaves rather badly and is really a bit of a dog. He can talk to Adam who is his owners boyfriend and other dogs but no other humans. A bit like Mr Ed I guess but this one is R rated. Wilfred smokes parties and is in general a bit of an animal. The interactions between other dogs who are also people in dog suits and Wilfred is really quite amazing. From bragging about the privileges his humans give him to sniffing what the other dog had for dinner last night the script is quite amazing. This is not your usual American sitcom and is way out on the fringe of comedy, but if you are not easily offended and want to see something truly different watch Wilfred.
tim-sharp Wilfred is a bit of a one-off as far as comedy goes. The basic scenario of a dope smoking sexually disinhibited dog as a character in a romantic sit-com could go badly wrong. When I first started watching it I thought it was a crap idea - then it creeps up on you how brilliantly put together the show is - first class scripts and wonderful comic timing. If you find the idea of a bloke acting the part of a psychopathic pet attractive this is one not to be missed. The humour is Australian which would translate easily for a UK or NZ audience.Wilfred: "For me this last six years has been one loveless root after the next..great danes...not so great danes...even a few deadies truth be known"
move_on_reakshun this show is freaking brilliant. based on how Sara's boyfriend Adam see's her dog Wilfred, as a person in a dog suit. the writers Jason Gann and Adam Zwar obviously know dogs really well, because they have conveyed a dog's behavior perfectly into a human actor, and it is brilliant.ever walked up to a dog tied up outside a shop and gone to say hello or pat it, and it shows it teeth and gives you the look that says 'stay away'? in one episode, wilfred is tied up outside a milk bar while adam and sara are inside. he's playing with something, head down. a man walks up towards the shop and heads to wilfred with his hand out.wilfred looks up, tilts back and says 'f*ck off'. spot on.
