A Dog's Breakfast Reviews and Ratings



  • November 8, 2009
    I love it. So funny. David Hewlett was such a mental in the movie. lol
  • October 2, 2009
    I don`t usualy like low budjet movies. I think I`ll pass.
  • September 28, 2009
    This dark comedy is unique and I loved it. A brother's relationship with his sister starts warped and gets far more interesting as it goes.
    You will love the ending!
  • September 16, 2009
    Quite an unusual comedy with a very weird lead character. Still there were lots of amusing scenes with a twist ending that made this film even more fun.
  • September 9, 2009
    Cleverly shot, technically sound, but way too silly.

    Most of the plot, dialogue and jokes are predictable and broadcast way in advance. My last watch/review was also a dark comedy, Just Buried, and this one reminds me what an average flick is and makes me appreciate that one a...( read more)ll the more.

    I guess a good analogy is, there isn't enough "bang for the buck." There isn't enough return for all the liberties and steps they took with the storyline. They'd have been better off going a bit more extreme if nothing was going to come as a surprise.

    I'm surprised by the high ratings this movie is getting here and elsewhere. Is there a fanboy appeal in one of the characters from some other show/movie? I just don't get it.

    This isn't a BAD movie, but most of it's success comes from the creative filming and the story leaves a lot to be desired.

    NOT BAD JUST FOUND A LITTLE ON THE SLOW SIDE.
  • August 10, 2009
    I think that I will be safe if I skip this one.

    This is a hilarious movie! A very lovely and fun dark comedy. Low-budget but enjoyable, and any fan of the Stargate TV show will appreciate the cast all the more.

    David Hewlett shows his mastery of comedy in this small budget movie he created with the help of his friends (cast and crew of Stargate franchise). His comic timing is brilliant as is his equally brilliant sister (who plays his sister) and my personal favorite-Paul McGillion in ...( read more)a triple role! :) Everything is funny and Mars, the dog even has great timing.

    Funny, touching, interesting.

    Dieing to see this one.
  • August 3, 2008
    I have never seen anything like it before. Hewlett is a genius, he is the best ever at playing funny crazy.
    making dark comedy like this isn't easy but he pulls it of so gooooood

    if you like something original, something crazy, something dark and above all something most specta...( read more)cularly made.... you've got to see it

    Paul McGillion and David Hewlett are awesome in this film! It's hilarious... in a weird sort of way. Very enjoyable, with a slightly stupid ending.
  • May 27, 2008
    David Hewlett's directorial debut, a clever dark comedy. Even having guessed the ending (movie ruiner that I am), I enjoyed it thoroughly, and could not stop laughing.
  • May 24, 2008
    David Hewlett...............what more needs to be said
  • March 26, 2008

  • March 1, 2008
    This is one of the BEST movies I've ever seen. Paul McGillion, and David Hewlett were FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • January 9, 2008
    A moderately amusing and fairly brisk dark comedy.
  • November 17, 2007
    Loved it, purely because i love SGA, this has the same weird scenes and eery feelings as the cube and nothing. but its actually pretty funny in parts, considering its low budget i thought they did a pretty good job. the scene with the dog and the toothbrush always makes me wanna ...( read more)wash my mouth out. i mean i have a dog but....no just... no
  • November 5, 2007
    I didn't realize it at first, but David Hewlett's film ressembles an horror film he starred in called Pin. It's like its comedic counterpart: a weirdo guy lives in his deceased parents house, he dislikes his sister's boyfriend and eventually kills him. There's even a human-size p...( read more)uppet like in Pin... A clever low-budget canadian comedy.
  • October 28, 2007
    As with most comedies, it depends on your sense of humor. This was clever and somewhat funny, but not really my thing.
  • October 9, 2007
    This was a great movie and I love that it was done by most of the cast of Stargate.
  • October 6, 2007
    Interesting to see all these Stargate people in a (non-Stargate) movie. Unfortunately, the story isn't very good, and it isn't very funny either. Might be worth a watch if you can't get enough of Stargate and everything related.
  • September 30, 2007
    A really funny movie. Loved the ending. Can't stop giggling.
  • September 24, 2007
    Absolutely hilarious! What a great first movie by David and Jane. I can't wait to see what they do next!
  • September 23, 2007
    Not a bad little comedy. Obviously B grade but not bad altogether.
  • September 22, 2007
    I absolutely LOVED this movie! I actually first saw it in Canada and it was awesome! I laughed so hard I almost pee'd my pants!
  • September 21, 2007
    This is such a funny movie and well worth the long wait for it. I loved it. It was very side splitting. This just confirms it for me what a talented actor and now director David is. I cannot say enough about it. This is a must see and a must own movie. I loved it.
  • August 11, 2007
    This wickedly-funny movie is a testament to Hewlett's amazing and multi-faceted talent.
  • July 20, 2007
    Great indie movie! I LOVE David Hewlett
  • July 18, 2007
    While this isn't the funniest movie I've ever seen, it does have its comedic moments that make up for some of the more cringeworthy ones. The acting is pretty entertaining as well (even if David Hewlett seems to be playing a dumber, slightly more neurotic--if that's possible--v...( read more)ersion of his character on Stargate: Atlantis). It's definitely enjoyable to watch David and Kate Hewlett together, not to mention Christopher Judge. I'll admit, though, that if not exactly disappointed, I was slightly underwhelmed. The film drags in places, even clocking in at less than 90 minutes almost as if the premise isn't quite enough to keep it going. I can't help but feel that much of the first half could've been condensed, given how much better the second half actually is once they quit beating around the bush, or spent with minutes upon minutes of Starcrossed because Rachel Luttrell is brilliant and awesome and the bits shown of that were fantastic, easily my favorite.

    Can't wait to see it.
  • January 13, 2007
    this looks so funny, i really want to see it!
  • November 30, 2006
    A brilliant dark comedy, well worth a look
