Dog Park (1999) *

Directed by Bruce McCulloch. With Natasha Henstridge, Luke Wilson and Janeane Garofalo. The plot of this lame romantic comedy offers a tangled web of ridiculously contrived relationships and coincidences involving dog owners of both sexes chasing after each other. The untangling of those threads represents the only form of narrative there is, leaving the film with nothing but atrocious dialogue and some truly embarassing acting to keep itself occupied. Pratically every line consists of illogical and bewildering utterances, all blissfully unconnected to each other.
