About this product

Product Information

For struggling writer Solo (Giovanni Ribisi) a new dog is just what he thinks he needs to cheer himself up and get his life back on track. Unfortunately the dog is more work than he dreamed of and it seems that it's attracting all sorts of unwanted attention from a bizarre cast of characters including loan sharks and dog collectors. This is a quirky look at being young and confused in L.A. and is the second effort by actor/director Scott Caan who also plays Solo's off kilter friend. It's a humorous look at what it takes to get life back on track and discovering what it means to care for something outside the superficial and twisted world of Southern California.

Repetitive journey
The tagline for "The Dog Problem" on the DVD cover is "Eat. Sleep. Therapy. Repeat." Right away, I should have known a slogan about repitition would be a bad sign. Sure enough, the movie is indeed a repetitive journey that continually goes around and round in circles before an unsatisfying and abrupt end. The story centers on Solo (Giovanni Ribisi) who is not related to Han or Mario Van Peeble's title character. Solo is a broke author who goes to therapy to try and get his life back on track. When the therapist mentions Solo should get a pet to keep him company, he decides to purchase a dog. At first, the dog brings nothing but trouble, but Solo slowly realizes the dog is helping his life as he meets a woman at a dog park, among other fateful occurences. "The Dog Problem" is in fact ...

When the therapist mentions Solo should get a pet to keep him company, he decides to purchase a dog. At first, the dog brings nothing but trouble, but Solo slowly realizes the dog is helping his life as he meets a woman at a dog park, among other fateful occurences. "The Dog Problem" is in fact loaded with problems. First and foremost, the script is padded with filler that does nothing more than drag out scenes and prevent the story from moving forward. For instance, in the final 15 minutes, there is a roughly 5 minute music montage of the dog struts through the streets of L.A like Travolta in "Saturday Night fever." The filler proves that the story barely lends itself to filling out a short film, let alone a feature length film. The script also repeats itself over and over. We know Solo's character is going through a crisis, we don't need to hear him tell ever single person he meets. Again, it falls into needless filler. The script Caan wrote also curiously abandons a subplot about a loan shark who lended Solo money. Instead of taking the subplot to a new level or milking it for comedic purposes, it petters out which (in the end) makes the subplot seem insignifigant and out of place. The hip cast do the best they can with their roles. An uncredited Don Cheadle as the therapist and Mena Suvari as a rich Paris Hilton-like woman are the stand outs here. Giovanni Ribisi, who has been a reliable supporting actor in films like "Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow" and "Saving Private Ryan," falters as he has never been leading man material. He simply can't carry the film, but to be fair, the script is partially to blame. As for Scott Caan, he is a talented actor who makes a good member of the Ocean's gang, but he hasn't proven his writing/directing abilities yet. Instead of shamelessly glorifying himself by having a starring role, Caan should spend more time focusing on his other duties. Caan needs to tighten and strengthen his skills. He should be less concerned with studying French comedies or even Woody Allen works, and develop a fresh perspective that will stand out in the crowded indie film scene. Caan's potential is evident during his long shots and direction of actors and actresses, but there is much room for growth.

Despite the plot flaws, it's an enjoyable dog movie. Especially when looking for an adult themed dog movie. I thought the ending could have been a bit better perhaps. But it works. It could have some more features, but it does at least have commentary and captions.

The Dog Problem
this is a great little movie by James Caan's son. This kid really learned a great deal from his Dad on how to make a good movie. If you read the reviews you will find that it is a movie that people either love or hate. Not much else in between. I personally love it. The characters are not particularly lovable, except for the dog who is the best, but hey, did anyone like the characters on Seinfeld? Exactly...my point. See it for wht it is. An early effort by a future movie making star.this is a great little movie by James Caan's son. This kid really learned a great deal from his Dad on how to make a good movie.
