K-9: P.I. (2002)

I wanted to but couldn't!

Fantastic!

Admirable film.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Having spent many years in the police force, Detective Dooley, finally retiring. Although his colleagues organized an unforgettable farewell party, he was not particularly happy free time that awaits him. On the way home he and his partner Jerry dog will note robbery in the laboratory for assembling chips. In conflict with the burglars Jerry will swallow one of the stolen chips. If you liked the previous 2 films on the K-9 Trilogy you're going to love this movie as well, James Belushi and King as Jerry Lee have an amazing and funny chemistry together and their the heart and soul of this Series. Plus it's a pretty hilarious movie and Jerry steals the show most of the time he is cute when he shakes his head, he is awesome when he chases someone and he is funny when he starts farting. There's also a really good chase scene threw the stairs with Belushi and Eklund. Also i loved the scenes with the Agents and one of them is played by Kevin Durand (X-Men Origins: Wolverine). In the end K- 9: P.I is funny, action packed, lighthearted and succeeds where so many direct to DVD sequels have failed thanks to the amazing chemistry between the 2 main leads. (A+)

Dooley (Jim Belushi) and his canine partner Jerry Lee are back for a third go-round in K9:PI. This time, they are battling thieves over some stolen computer chips in a plot so thin, it makes Belushi look extra fat. Also, Belushi is now retired from the police force and working as a private investigator, hence the title. The excitement and action and comedy of the first movie are long gone, replaced by endless flatulence and poo jokes. K9:PI is passable, but barely. The first half, about the chip robbery and Dooley accidentally getting involved, is more entertaining than the second half, during which Dooley "pimps" Jerry Lee in order to make some money when he finds his pension temporarily frozen. As this subplot drags on and on, the action really dies and barely picks up in time for the end. And I wasn't kidding about Belushi being out of shape in this. He looks terrible.

K9(1989) directed by Rod Daniel was a good movie, where a hard Miami cop coupled with a strange dog. The movie was supported from an exciting screenplay and the mix between action and comedy stay high all the time thanks to a great James Belushi in the lead role. After 14 years there are two sequel for the original movie: K9:11(1999) and this K9:P.I.(2002). Both of them useless, because every good points of the movie is lost, even the argument between the cop and his dog, that in the first movie were very hilarious and funny , are off and without energy. The story is totally absent, all of the movie based to the gags between the cop and the dog , that its are funny but too little for do the entirely movie on this. Because in this years the story of the dog cop have been exploit in every of his aspect and now is relegated for SitCom, TV series or actors beginners, not for a professional as James Belushi . In this new adventure the cop Dooley and his dog partner is ready to the retire, but they are involved in a case of steal a microchips, and till to the guilty going to discover the retired is frozen. The plot is totally undeveloped and it stay only a idea for all the movie, Belushi is off, but he heave not materials to work, and he seems only a caricature to the fascinating cop on first `K9'.Belushi is a great actor, his character in movies as `The Principal', `Dimenticare Palermo' or in comedy as `Taking care a business' and the nostalgic `Mr Destiny' were the work of a professional and good actor, but it's a real sin that you see spoiling this talent in this sequel for the video. Ultimately Belushi is relegated to the TV and video production, but I think that he heave the quality for back on the cinema, I hope that some good director succeeded to emphasize. Now Belushi is on the set to the movie `Easy Six', a independent production directed by Chris Iovenko where he play the role of Elvis Presley. It seem a good return, I good hope.

James Belushi gives one of his most poignant performances in this gripping action-adventure yarn about a cop and his human. Every aspect of this film screams Oscar, and it's a travesty that such brilliance is rarely acknowledged in Hollywood anymore. Not since the original Godfather has a film so transcended what has come before. From the rip-roaring opening sequence (making this one of the very finest of the summer's slam-bang action-thrillers) to its sweeping finale, this film deserves more than its fate as a direct-to-video feature. The two leads create the best onscreen chemistry since, well, Brando and Pacino. If there were any justice, this film would be best picture every year. The greatest motion picture ever made. Period.
