An unusually high ratio of laughs per minute. Kalesniko's writing
and direction are ever on the prowl for the oddball
and off-beat.

Branagh,
in his most forceful non-Shakespeare screen performance grounds
even the softest moments in the angry revolt of his wit.

Neighbor's
Dog is precisely that rare beast, a movie at once deeply cynical
and often mocking . . . yet genuinely fond of its flawed yet fundamentally
decent people. It will certainly click with audiences starved for
smart, pungent comedy.

Mr.
Kalesniko's satirically barbed screenplay stirs up an insistent
verbal energy that rarely flags.

Run,
don't walk, to see this barbed and
bracing comedy.

An
unpredictable, bittersweet and vastly
touching film that doesn't stoop to formula or preachy conclusions.

One
of my favorite films this year . . . well written and beautifully
acted. [A] refreshingly unconventional comedy.
