Old Dogs stars John Travolta and Robin Williams
Released on 19th March 2010 in the UK, this family comedy starring John Travolta tells the story of two hardened business men and best friends, who end up looking after seven-year-old twins and a large dog.
Old Dogs also stars Justin Long, Robin Williams, Matt Dillon and Travolta’s wife Kelly Preston. It is Travolta’s first film since the sudden death of his 16-year-old son, Jett, in January 2009. Still struggling with their devastating loss, the couple have turned the film into a family affair with their nine-year old daughter Ella Bleu, making her début in the comedy which opens in the US on 25th November.
Directed by Walt Becker of Wild Hoggs fame, Old Dogs tells the story of Charlie (Travolta) and Dan (Willliams) who are two co-workers who fail to recognise the value of family life. When Dan’s ex-wife (Preston) turns up after a long period of absence with seven-year-old twins she claims are fathered by Dan, Dan recruits Charlie to help him entertain the twins and dog with outdoor activities and with the help of the larger than life children’s entertainer, Jimmy Lunchbox played by Bernie Mac. Sadly this was Bernie Mac’s last film before his death in August 2009 and Old Dog’s release date was delayed as a result.
But back to the film – the question is, do Charlie and Dan learn true family values and become reformed characters or not? We have an inkling that this could indeed be the case but you never know…
