Today marks the release day of Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment’s Old Dogs on DVD and Blu-ray! Starring Robin Williams and John Travolta (I have such a crush on him), with tons of great actors who make appearances throughout the film, this movie was a treat for my husband and I when we checked it out this past weekend.
Dan (Williams) and Charlie (Travolta) are best friends and business partners who have their lives turned upside down when Dan’s ex-wife (whom he married in a drunken night in Vegas and subsequently had the marriage annulled never to see her again) shows up explaining that Dan is the father of her 7 year old twins. In a can-only-happen-in-a-movie twist, Dan’s ex (played by Kelly Preston) must leave her twins with him for 2 weeks.
Old Dogs is a bit reminiscent of one of my 80’s favorites, Three Men and Baby except that these twins (played by Conner Rayburn and Ella Blue Travolta…yes that Travolta) are not babies and these men are not 30-something bachelors. The ‘old person’ jokes are dominant throughout the film but the comedy comes about from an assortment of situations.
In the clip below, Dan and Charlie’s medications for all their ailments are accidentally mixed up by the twins and the result is a hilarious golf game that had my husband in stitches and a face on John Travolta that will probably wreck my fantasies of him for good!
Other faces you may recognize in the movie include Seth Green, Matt Dillon, Rita Wilson, Bernie Mac and a hilarious Justin Long among others.
There’s tons of bonus features on the discs including “Every Little Step”, a music video featuring John and Ella Blue Travolta (Blu-ray), bloopers and deleted scenes, of course the usual audio commentary. The 3 disc Blu-Ray set includes the Blu-ray DVD, a regular DVD, and a Digital DVD (for playing on your laptop or PC).
