Teacher's Pet
Teacher's Pet is a 74-minute cartoon adapted from a show on the Disney Channel. Nathan Lane voices the part of a freakishly intelligent dog who routinely disguises himself as a boy and attends school along with his master. The movie covers an eventful summer break during which the dog tracks down a mad scientist (played by Kelsey Grammer) who obligingly transforms him into a man. I haven't seen the TV series but I'll be looking for it. The movie is an exhilarating, surrealistic, somewhat warped musical comedy of errors full of sly gags. Children should enjoy the fast pace and funny animals but adults will appreciate the artistry of Teacher's Pet on a completely different level. I loved every minute of it and gave it ten out of ten.
