Dog Shy

The film constructs its humor brick by brick, relying on the precise visual grammar of silent slapstick. It explores the archetype of the timid everyman thrust into an absurd heroic role through sheer circumstance.

Those who tire of dialogue-heavy plots will find pure, kinetic comedy here. What lingers after the final reel is the charm of a simple, well-executed joke about courage found in the most confined of spaces. — MovieFinder Editorial
