Storyline

Ozzy, a friendly, peaceful beagle has his idyllic life turned upside down when the Martins leave on a long and distant trip. There's only one problem: no dogs allowed! Unable to bring their beloved Ozzy along for the ride, they settle on the next best thing, a top-of-the-line canine spa called Blue Creek. This picture perfect place turns out to be a facade constructed by its villainous owner to capture dogs. Ozzy will soon end up in the real Blue Creek, a prison for dogs, run by dogs. Ozzy will have to avoid danger and find strength in his new friends, Chester, Fronky and Doc to escape the prison and return home safely. The narrative of 'OZZY' aims to follow in the footsteps of movies which employs Pixar-like quality and fun. 'OZZY' is an animated comedy-adventure movie targeted for kids of all ages and represents family entertainment at its best. The story itself is based, almost entirely, around dogs. 'OZZY' falls into the "prison movie" genre with funny tributes to the great prison...

Trivia

The original version of the film was recorded in English, even though the creativity was Spanish. In a curious turnabout, Hollywood actress Elsa Pataky returned to her native tongue to dub Maddie, Ozzy's love interest, in the Spanish version of the film.

User Reviews

This is not for kids

This movie has some very adult themes and had to stop halfway through. It started out well enough but then went down hill. I wouldn't recommend this for the family because it touches on some very gritty and dark themes. I would not watch this with any child under the age of thirteen because the adult is left with so many questions to explain to a child who has difficulty in understanding the ways of the world.
