OLD DOGS (F)

Starring: John Travolta, Robin Williams, Kelly Preston, Seth Green and Matt Dillon

Story: Two best friends -- one unlucky-in-love divorcee and the other a fun-loving bachelor -- have their lives turned upside down when they're unexpectedly charged with the care of six-year-old twins while on the verge of the biggest business deal of their lives. The not-so-kid-savvy bachelors stumble in their efforts to take care of the twins, leading to one debacle after another, and perhaps to a new-found understanding of what's really important in life. (Walt Disney Pictures)

Rated: PG for some mild rude humor

Bottom Line: An insipid, less than half-hearted, ridiculous, brain-dead and predictable mess of a movie that made me long for a Will Ferrell LAND OF THE LOST sequel. You can’t teach OLD DOGS new tricks…or, apparently, how to entertain an audience.
