NOT REALLY A DOG, BUT...
My first impulse is to say if you love dogs, you'll love this movie. But that's not fair--it really isn't bad, just more than a little bland. Diane Lane, still pretty but looking close to her age in some scenes, is a divorced pre-school teacher pushing forty who wants some romance in her life after several years of celibacy. Through the Internet she meets idealistic boat builder John Cusack. They like each other, but it's obvious there's no real heat between them. Cusack's character, as usual, is cool and reserved--in a word, bland. There's not much real wit or humor in this film, but Christopher Plummer as Lane's Yeats-quoting 71-year old woman chasing dad, has the best supporting role. Fans of Lane & Cusack will want to see this; for all others it's ninety minutes of ho-hum. Incidentally, dog lovers: don't be fooled by the title-- unfortunately the roles for canines are scanty.
