Movie Description
Drew Barrymore lends her perky pipes to a spoiled Chihuahua named Chloe in this live-action Disney comedy. Somehow Chloe finds herself in Mexico, far from her life in Beverly Hills, and she has to find her way home. Andy Garcia, George Lopez, and Salma Hayek are among the vocal talent in SOUTH OF THE BORDER, while Piper Perabo, Manolo Cardona, and Jamie Lee Curtis star., In Disney's unabashedly silly talking-dog movie BEVERLY HILLS CHIHUAHUA, Chloe (voiced by Drew Barrymore), the ridiculously spoiled title pet, is swept away from her comfortable 90210 existence, when the impulsive niece (Piper Perabo) of her wealthy owner (Jamie Lee Curtis) combines dog-sitting with a vacation in Mexico. When Chloe gets lost south of the border, her scrappy Chihuahua admirer, Papi (voiced by George Lopez), embarks on a mission to bring her back home. While Chloe's pint-size dog in shining armor searches for his posh crush, she must contend with the rough-and-tumble side of life, learning a few important lessons along the way.
Directed by Raja Gosnell, who is no stranger to dog-themed live-action/CGI flicks (see SCOOBY-DOO), CHIHUAHUA is an amusing diversion that is custom-made for canine lovers. Barrymore and Lopez are pitch-perfect in their vocal performances, and they are ably assisted by a bevy of Latino talent, including Andy Garcia, Edward James Olmos, and Cheech Marin. Although the film doesn't give its human actors a lot to do, it doesn't matter much, since the dogs are the reason for the entire show. In fact, the more the movie concentrates on its furry protagonists the more giddily entertaining it gets, as exemplified by a fun, fantastical doggie musical sequence that serves as CHIHUAHUA's undeniable highlight.
Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- "CHIHUAHUA is essentially a class-war parable told from the winning side. A state-of-the-art kid-pleaser for sure..."
Total Film - Ken McIntyre (02/01/2009)
3 stars out of 4 -- "The voices are very good....It highly encourages dog adoption, so at lease kids are getting a message while being entertained."
