The animation is fantastic the textures and anatomy of the animals, while stylised, is still very true to what it represents. It doesn't remove the issue, but it allows one to see the effort the creators put in to the rest of the film. By now, you've already heard from many sources about the parallels with Toy Story, and, if you're open minded, can enjoy the film for what it is a slapstick comedy with talking animals. The only real original element is that the animals have their own language they don't harbour the ability to speak to humans. They even have elements of Toy Story 2 and 3 friends coming together to find the main character, and a seemingly cute antagonist causing chaos. When one is trying to get rid of the other, they end up far away from home, and have to find their way back. The main character loves his owner so much, and is insanely jealous when they bring home someone new. The main species has a social circle that their owners aren't aware of. The main issue of the film, and it's a biggie, is that it's Toy Story with pets. While all this madness is afoot, a Pomeranian named Gidget, who has a major crush on Max, enlists the help of all their animal neighbours to save him. Due to accidentally offing a valuable member of the society, Snowball and his henchmen swear vengeance on our furry duo. Naturally, the pooches must cope with each other and find their way home, but not without obstacles underneath the belly of NYC is an underground secret society of abandoned and unwanted animals, led by the not so cuddly rabbit, Snowball (Kevin Hart). Not wanting his perfect life torn upside down by the hairy interloper, Max tries his darndest to get rid of him, leading, of course, to the pair getting whisked away by the pound when Duke tries to dispose of Max. They also got the territorial side, for when Katie brings home a Newfoundland mix named Duke (Eric Stonestreet), Max is less than impressed.

Max, like any terrier, is full of beans and love for his master Illumination got the happy go lucky attitude of the Jack Russell down perfectly. The film opens with our protagonist, Max (Louis C.K.), a Jack Russell Terrier living in New York City with his owner, Katie. What we got, is a beautifully animated flick with plenty of humour and good spirits that packs too much into its run time that has good intentions, despite borrowing heavily from a certain 1990s film.
There is still so much one can do with this age old trope, if one is clever enough. The world cried in unison what does this animation studio think pets do? We already have pets as spies, pets being obsessive compulsive mouse hunters, and pets finding their way home. When Illumination Entertainment, the French animation studio behind monster hits such as Despicable Me and Minions (the first non-Disney animated film to earn a billion worldwide) launched a teaser trailer documenting the mischief pets get up to, curiosities were peaked. As ideas go, it isn't original, but the possibilities it can bring are endless.
It's an idea that has been played around with for years, from Tom and Jerry to Phineas and Ferb. Let's face it, we as pet owners have always wondered what our furry friends are up to when we're not home.
