K-9 (1989)
6/10
Much better!
17 October 2006
I watched K-911 first before this movie, I didn't realize that it was a sequel. Not to mention, not a very good one at that. Jim wasn't doing a good job convincing me that he was just as good of a comedian as his brother, he isn't still, but this movie showed a little better of what talent he could have. K-9 was more fun than the sequel, I can tell you that much, because it revolved better around the story.

This story shows how Dooley met his K-9 partner, Jerry Lee. As stereotypical as it sounds, Dooley is your typical stands by his own crazy rules type of a cop, he also refuses to get a partner, but eventually decides the best way to do it is to get a cop dog. Figures that the dog would be easier to command and he'd be in charge. He is also trying to bust a drug run and his girlfriend gets involved, unintentionally. He finds out that Jerry Lee proves himself more useful than Dooley takes him for.

Over all, I'd say this is a fun little movie to watch on a Saturday afternoon. It has some fun humor and cute moments where you just automatically fall in love with Jerry Lee, I guess Dooley isn't such a bad guy after all. Believe me when I say to skip the sequel and stick to K-9.
