highly recommended

funny but also sad.

Bark was a very funny movie but it was also sad, as the wife was truly sick. As usual Vincent D'Onofrio did a spectacular job with his part in this movie. I found it very poignant.

Wow!

I was soooooo surprised/impressed by this movie. A complete pleasant surprise. I love dogs, therefore, gave it a chance and I'm glad I did. Once getting through the beginning of the movie (which I thought would be unbelievable or not possible) I was so incredibly moved by it. Very moving and enjoyable, to say the least..............

Don't Underestimate this one!

I was so relieved to find this excellent movie. The actors are great, the script a little kooky but very sensitive, and this one hit me in the heart. To me, this movie is about Unconditional Love. The husband realizes that he would rather have a happy "crazy" wife than a wife on medication being used as a guinea pig and turned into a zombie. I was moved to tears because I have this kind of love and I am also obsessed with my dogs. I am buying this movie for my husband, my mother and my doctor. I am hoping they will understand and see what I see. GREAT MOVIE...STUPID COVER...EXcellent Acting...A movie that makes you think...and if you do think and see past the extraneous plot directions, you will understand about Unconditional love.

Good idea, bad execution.

Bark is a film that had everything going for it. Lee Tergesen, Hank Azaria, Lisa Kudrow and Vincent D'Onofrio are all extremely talented actors that do wonderfully with the material they're given. Some scenes are laugh-out-loud funny. The premise, a woman beginning to think she's a dog, is original and full of potential to be either humorous or dramatic.

So what went wrong? Not only was most of the movie not funny or moving, it was banal and pointless. The over-the-top characters (Lisa Kudrow is a ditzy vet; Vincent D'Onofrio is a psychologist who wishes he could play the harp for a living; Hank Azaria is a rebel who can't keep a job for more than a week; Lee Tergesen is the normal guy who watches the insanity around him with amazement), instead of being interesting, mostly came across as silly and badly thought out. Scenes meant to show us how crazy life was made little sense and were badly scripted. The final scenes, obviously meant to be heartwarming, were soppy and rather abrupt. Plot lines started and then went nowhere, leaving me wondering what happened.

This movie is worth a look if you're a fan of any of the actors. They all make the most of what they've been given, and each has a scene or two where they rise above the mediocre material. However, if you're not already a fan, there's not much to recommend about this.
