Pancho , Alberto and Patricia having the most stirring adventure of their lives and all of them discover unexpected circumstances of the real existence . In the meantime , Pancho makes a new friend in the process . They spend one last adventure-filled together holding numerous risks , thrills and dangers.

Enjoyable production about a sympathetic dog with entertainment , awesome moments and funny situations . Entertaining comedy , appointed for all kind of public about a silly premise , a fetching dog , human-alike , suffering several adventures , emotions and misfortunes . Adventure story has everything for amusement , and generates a sense of wonder and surprise with fast-paced action scenes and some images that have you on the edge of the seat . The picture moves in fits and starts most of which would be desirable , with more traps the viewer resists any kind , and some moments of enjoyment and others quite a few disconcerting . The highlights of the movie result to be when the feisty dog -Pancho's real name is Cook- spends time making antics and frolics , as when Pancho prepares a big sandwich . And , of course , when Pancho is taken by a stiff-upper-lip dog-catcher who executes on him a hard training . The gags and mischiefs carried out by the dog are abundant and embarrassing . This Mercedes Gamero , Mikel Lejarza production is a fun movie concerning the intimate dog pulls off childish pranks , distresses and winding up into a roller-coaster adventure . Agreeable acting from Ivan Massagué as Alberto , Pancho's secretary , who administers his tremendous fortune and attempts to persuade him to give up his squandering ways , the beautiful Patricia Conde as his intriguing friend and a couple of bungler hoodlums , marvelously played by Secun De La Rosa and Alex O'Dogherty . Furthermore , Armando Del Rio as the unscrupulous Montalbán and special appearance by Maria Castro and Eloy Azorin as a young marriage who adopts Pancho with unexpected consequences.

Thrilling and moving music score by two greatest Spanish musicians : Lucio Godoy (All about my mother , The others , Fin , Triage , Blackthorn) and Federico Jusid (The Secret in Their Eyes , Isabel , Ladrones) . Colorful and glimmer cinematography by Juán Carlos Gómez (El Bola , Azuloscurocasinegro , Gran Familia Española , Noviembre) . The motion picture was well directed by Tom Fernández , though it obtained a flop at the Spanish box office . Tom is nice craftsman , a good writer and director , known for his TV series , as ¨7 Vidas¨ (1999), ¨A medias¨(2002) ¨Chiringuito De Pepe¨ (2014) . He has only directed three films ¨La Torre De Suso¨ (2007) and ¨¿Para Qué Sirve Un Oso?¨ (2011) and this ¨Pancho , El Perro Millonario¨ (2014) .
