Elliot & me
Strange there's a recent Hollywood movie about a dog called Marley and me and now there's an Irish movie about a dog with a similar title! Short feature, just under an hour this effort is about a Dublin girl who buys her own pet, has it stolen, and tries to find it. She makes a report to the Garda yet when she discovers who stole the dog decides to get it back all on her own? The supporting cast are good and the cinematography is well done. But the little girl can't act and that dog is no Benji or Yeller! Not a lot to recommend, typical Irish movie, unoriginal and says nothing. The whole movie gets ruined by using too much piano and guitar on the soundtrack. However, unlike most films made here it has a target audience, young people!
