Hotel for Dogs

 (2009)

Comedy | Family



When their new guardians forbid 16-year old Andi and her younger brother, Bruce to have a pet, Andi has to use her quick wit to help find a new home for their dog, Friday. The resourceful kids stumble upon an abandoned hotel and using Bruce's talents as a mechanical genius, transform it into a magical dog-paradise for Friday--and eventually for all Friday's canine friends. When barking dogs make the neighbors suspicious, Andi and Bruce use every invention they have to avoid anyone discovering "who let the dogs in."

Hotel for Dogs Blu-ray, Video Quality

  n/a


Hotel For Dogs trots onto Blu-ray with a nice looking 1080p, 1.78:1-framed transfer. As a new-for-2009 Family Comedy on Blu-ray, everything is in place for a solid transfer, and this one doesn't disappoint. Detail is well above average, colors are bright and lively if not a bit warm, and the image is sharp across the board. The interior of the hotel becomes a character, at first appearing musty and run down, with relics, dust, and debris strewn everywhere, and the transfer captures all of it nicely. The many cityscape shots also sparkle, those that take place both at night and during the day. Detail and textures are solid all around. All the dogs look great, and shots that are sufficiently up-close reveal each strand of fur nicely. Likewise, flesh tones are solid. Black levels are fine, and the print is free of blemishes and features minimal noise. All in all, DreamWorks' Blu-ray transfer of Hotel For Dogs is a good one.


Hotel for Dogs Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  Array of 5


Hotel For Dogs barks onto Blu-ray with a Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack. This is a lively, fulfilling soundtrack that is easy on the ears. It fills the soundstage nicely, the music, effects, and dialogue carried by the front with the rear channels often used in support. Atmospherics, too, are solid. A thunderstorm as heard in chapter five features enveloping rain and distinctive thunder that is placed throughout the soundstage to nice effect. Dialogue, barks, howls, and growls are all reproduced crisply and efficiently. Hotel For Dogs makes for a nice, warm, and inviting track that never falters.
