pretty good
I'ts acctually an okay movie. It's something I picked up on the discount rack at the movie store for like 99 cents, and it was okay. Nothing innapropriate except fire scenes which might scare little kids. I may watch it again, I dont know. =) I'll give it 3 stars but if you're looking for a excellent movie job, you may want to look elswhere.

Mostly Great!
I thought it was a little much to have the dog defecating in the stew. The "anything goes" mentality in Hollywood is really bothersome. The "harem" of dogs for Rexxx was a poor addition as well. The movie would have been 5 stars without these two additions.

Intense,but wonderful family film !
Firehouse Dog is an intense,but a wonderful family film that is sometimes funny and scary.The story starts off as lonely lost movie star dog named Rexxxxxx and a lonely 12year old boy named Shane.Rexxxxxxx and Shane finnally met, but Shane hates the dog and calls him a mutt a bunch of times. As Shane grows on for the dog he wishes he hadn't met Rexxxxxxx. In the middle/ end Shane grows on to likes dog. There's more to it , but I don't want to spoil the whole story.There is some pretty intense fire sequences that kids under the age of 7 will be frightened . There is some brief rude and crude humor/behavior between Shane (rude) andRexxxxx/Dewey (crude.)there is some sad scenes where we hear that Shane's uncle died of an arson like fire from some bad guy.There is very brief mild language that include two - three uses of the h word and one use of crap (mostly used by the firefighters)(crap is used by Shane)and some mild insults that include dumb, stupid, jerk,and mutt which is used 7-10 times(used by Shane.)This is a perfectly enjoyable family film for ages 8+ because of its intense fire sequences and sad death character references, and brief mild rude and humor/behavior and very brief mild language/insults and three uses of two cuss words

Surprisingly nice
Went to the movies with my 2 kids (9 and 7) to see The Last Mimzy, which wasn't playing anymore. I asked at the ticket counter if they had information about this movie, like why it was rated PG, and they showed me a great binder full of information (FYI for parents). I was pleasantly surprised by the humor, fun and good values that were in this movie. Even the idea of the firehouse that was going to be closed down showed team-spirit and what working together with friends can achieve. A little too much potty humor for my taste, but my kids thought the dog farting was funny. Not sure that the romantic story lines were even necessary, and the commercialism for Apple products was huge !(iPod, computer, etc.) Overall, though the story was good and had lots of action.

Perhaps not for sensitive kids.
My son was 9 or 10 when we saw this and he found the fires too scary and consequently didn't enjoy the movie,

Nice
We have 4 children and this movie entertained them all. Aside from some inaccuracies when depicting Firefighting(my husband is Fireman) it was money well spent. We had a nice afternoon at the movie and a few good laughs.

Could work for older kids . . . not for younger ones . . . **language**
I am a teacher at a Christian school and wanted to use this movie for my kids during Fire Safety Month. I started showing it in class today (not thinking anything of it, because it was labeled a "kids" video) and in the first 25 minutes of the movie the words "dog from hell," suck," and "butt crack" were used. In my opinion those words are completely inappropriate!!!

good movie
Pep proves that girls and guys are equal when she is working she is tough on the boys but she knows how to be girly. I was crying during some of the father-son moments. I really felt sorry for Shane because he doesn't feel like someone is there for him. Overall good movie.
