PLOT:

from DVD cover-

Although animal handler Eddie (Silverman) works with lots of creatures, he has a strict NO PETS ALLOWED policy and won't let his son Billy keep adorable stray dog Beethoven and his family of puppies. But when dog-nappers steal the canine star of the movie Eddie's working on, the studio big shots must quickly find a replacement and unexpectedly cast the lumbering canine as their next big star. Through his rambunctious antics and larger-than-life personality, Beethoven not only crashes into Hollywood but into Eddie's heart as well.







Movie Review:

I have seen the other Beethoven Movies and this one... I believe, is by far, the Best! I liked all of the main characters... Jonathan Silverman, Jennifer Finnigan (Jonathon's wife in real-life), and Moises Arias. I remember Jonathan Silverman all the way back to the Gimme a Break days when he played the smart nerd who dated the middle daughter on the show. Moises Arias is perfect to play his son as he is quirky and fun - much like Jonathon's characters always are!

Like the other Beethoven Movies, this one is also family friendly and should be okay for children of all ages. Beethoven is missing for a time - but rest assured he is found! There is also a conversation between father and son about missing the mother who passed away years ago.

Most of the movie is fast-paced and fun. I enjoyed watching Eddie grow in many of his relationships... with his son, Billy, his co-worker and new friend, Lisa, and Beethoven, the dog!
