Critic Reviews

  • Jonathan F. Richards, Film.com

  • Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press

    Firehouse Dog is credited to three writers, but not one of them seems to have a solitary spark of an idea.

  • J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader

    It's aimed squarely at primary schoolers, but they'll probably get fidgety before its 111 minutes elapse.

  • Tom Long, Detroit News

    OK, Letters from Iwo Jima it's not. Firehouse Dog, though, serves a purpose, and it's a purpose you'd know quite well if you had a 6-year-old.
