ROCK DOG

Cert PG

Digital today, disc Monday Tone-deaf humour and off-key animation strike all the wrong notes in this tuneless dog of a cartoon. Luke Wilson voices Bodi, a naive pup who leaves his sheep at the mercy of wolves to pursue dreams of stardom in the big city. Eddie Izzard channels his inner Osbourne as a thin white rock legend with a robot servant called Ozzie. It’s a discordant mix of eastern mysticism, western music, Tibetan mountains, Texas accents and giant robot mice. The original songs are uninspired and forgettable. The whole exercise should go whistle.
