"Dog Man," an animated feature adapted from Dav Pilkey's graphic novels, contrasts against the Oscar-nominated "Flow" by portraying dogs as loyal and virtuous, while cats are seen as scheming. This film serves as a parody drawing on elements from cop movies and '80s classics like "Aliens" and "RoboCop." The animation style is inventive, resembling stop-motion in texture, yet is distinct from the handmade quality of works like Aardman Animations. The movie's references cater to both children and older audiences, offering a blend of humor and nostalgia.
"Dog Man" is a loving and visually inventive parody of cop flicks, superhero sagas and dog-cat tension, with a unique take on pet dynamics.
While "Flow" presents a case that cats are more resourceful than dogs, "Dog Man" seeks to balance this perspective by emphasizing the virtues of dogs.
