A Winning Combination

I can't remember seeing a film I could relate to more. This picture, just like real life, is a rollercoaster ride of trial, frustration, surprise, tenderness, love, and laughter. The characters will remind you of people in your own life. At times you want to slap main character Peter McGowen, and moments later embrace him. The acting is believable, engaging and entertaining.

Great movie

This is a great unknown film. Laugh out loud funny and also sad, don't let the title dissuade you from seeing this one. Kenneth Branagh is terrific. October 2, 2007

REVIEW HOW TO KILL YOUR NEIGHBOR'S DOG

This movie is fantastic! You will laugh, you will cry, and you will learn about the human spirit. They could not have picked better actors for this movie. This is one of my favorite movies. I suggest you go buy it today!!! January 10, 2007

Take the time to watch this film

Stars Kenneth Branagh and Robin Wright Penn. Branagh plays a cynical playwright who doesn't want children. Clever, well acted, and generally entertaining. This film did not receive a wide distribution despite the `big name' actors. Accordingly, many are unfamiliar with it. July 24, 2006

Searching for jems takes some work.

Originally saw "How To Kill Your Neighbor's Dog" when director Michael Kalesniko brought it to the Kansas City Film Festival.

He was trying to get word of mouth working for the film, as (from what he said) was the studio refusing to release it unless he changed the title.

Now I've had difficulty recommending this jem to some people, because as soon as I mention the title...

But it is an exceptional little film. Crisp writing. Tight, witty dialogue. And really funny bits.

Kenneth Branagh & Robin Wright Penn stand out brilliantly as the featured couple. Other actors shine in smaller parts. But the work of Suzi Hofrichter as the new neighbor's daughter will really win you over.

One might quibble that filming what is supposed to be Los Angeles in Vancouver, Canada is a stretch (can you really see your breath at night in L. A.?), one can easily overlook that mismatch. Because the film is terrific.

It may not have seen wider release, but you'd do better buying "How To Kill Your Neighbor's Dog" than renting anything Adam Sandler has ever produced.
