Plot

This talking-animal action comedy from Lawrence Guterman, the co-director of Antz (1998), follows on the heels of the Babe and Dr. Dolittle films. Unknown to humans, a secret war has been raging between cats and dogs for eons, but a fragile truce has long held the order of the animal kingdom in place. Now the balance of power has tipped, as a researcher, Professor Brody (Jeff Goldblum), is about to invent a vaccine that will erase all human allergies to dogs. This is too much for the autocratic Mr. Tinkles (Sean Hayes), a white Persian kitty bent on world domination. The Brody home becomes ground zero for the renewed conflict between feline and canine, with a young Beagle puppy named Lou (Tobey Maguire) caught in the middle as the new point man for his species' cause. Cats and Dogs co-stars Elizabeth Perkins and Alexander Pollock, as well as the vocal talents of Susan Sarandon, Alec Baldwin, Jon Lovitz, Michael Clarke Duncan, and Joe Pantoliano. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

Review

Recorded for America's number one low-fi underground label, Cats and Dogs was the first indication that Royal Trux could do more than whip up a tornado of distortion. A little less focused than Thank You, it still has its moments of splendor, especially when it sounds as though it's going to fall apart and, suddenly, comes back together. ~ John Dougan, All Music Guide

Synopsis

A secret war between cats and dogs quickly peaks as a scientist (Jeff Goldblum) tries to create a serum to cure dog allergies in humans. As the unsuspecting humans go through their busy lives, the cats make several attempts to possess the formula, as their canine foes try tirelessly to stop them. Caught in the crossfire, a young beagle named Lou, adopted by the Brody family, tries hard to succeed as a secret agent, and in being a friend to the young Scotty Brody. A evil snow white cat named Mr. Tinkles is planning to make every person on Earth allergic to dogs so that he can take over the world with his army of cunning cats.

Trivia

  • In the Grounded for life episode Tombstone Blues the cat in the grave's name is Mr. Tinkles.
  • Tinkles calls Sophie the maid "Large Marge". A reference to The Simpsons.
  • A Looney Tunes episode is seen on Scotty's TV.

Box Office

The film grossed $95 million in the US, and more than $200 million worldwide ($107 million internationally) in its initial release.

Alternate Ending

The movie's alternate ending sees Sophie, the maid, taking Mr. Tinkles to the vet to be neutered and to have his claws clipped. Mr. Tinkles is in a cage, wearing a prisoners uniform. The cats intercept Sophie, allowing Tinkles to make his getaway; he appears at the statue outside the vet, and laughs an evil laugh.
