Turner & Hooch Trailers

Scott Turner has 3 days left in the local police department before he moves to a bigger city to get some 'real' cases—not just misdemeanors. When Amos Reed is murdered, Scott sets himself on the case, but the closest thing to a witness to the murder is Reed's dog, Hooch, which Scott has to take care of—to avoid Hooch being 'put to sleep'.

Turner & Hooch is a hilarious film. This film has excellent acting by Tom Hanks as Scott Turner, Mare Winningham as Emily Carlson, Reginald Veljohnson as David Sutton, Scott Paulin as Zack Gregory and J.C Quinn as Walter Boyett. This film is a great film to watch and I find it very entertaining and funny. I just don't know why this film got a rating of 6.1 out of 10, man that is low it deserves and should have been given a higher rating. This film which was a cop comedy wasn't as good as Beverly Hills Cop which was excellent but it definitely was a very good film. Rating: 8.7 out of 10

"Turner and Hooch" was an enlivening comedy makes us laugh loudly. It was a prize for me. Tom Hanks played its role admirably. However, when heroism is largely exaggerated, it loses its real influence. At the end of the film, when protagonist the dog, while dying, saves the life of Tom Hanks in the way of "the water margin", the viewer wants to cover her/himself with blanket, stop hearing and hug her/his hands and legs. The other issue in the film is the scene when Tom Hanks cuts a piece of meat into small pieces in a comical way with a tool like axes and gives it to dog, although the dog prevents eating. A question arises to my mind: why the blood of dog is not of one color? Because it is faithful? Because we can show the feeling of subjection in association with this beast and meanwhile keep calm and kind and kind-hearted? Why protests against killing of the other animals and using of their meat in a large amount and continuously, is extensively inconsiderable in comparison with protests against killing and hurting of dog? Because their meat is more delicious? Because dog is faithful and helpful in another way?

In a sleepy California coast town, neat and tidy police detective Tom Hanks (as Scott Turner) is assigned to investigate a murder witnessed only by an ugly, slobbering dog named "Hooch". Often showing off his trim physique in brief black underwear, Mr. Hanks finds his fastidiously decorated home damaged by his sloppy canine companion. Animal-loving veterinarian Mare Winningham (as Emily Carson) helps Hanks manage his house-guest, and you can smell the romance breaking a mile away. "Hooch" stinks up the police station, which could cause police chief Craig T. Nelson (as Howard Hyde) to call off the hunt. Just looking at Reginald Veljohnson (as David Sutton) in the credits lets you know he's Hanks' overweight partner. There is at least one surprise in this predictable, warm-hearted story; and, it isn't pretty.**** Turner & Hooch (7/28/89) Roger Spottiswoode ~ Tom Hanks, Mare Winningham, Craig T. Nelson, Reginald Veljohnson

In Turner and Hooch, Tom Hanks is Scott Turner, a detective who has only 3 day left working at the police department. He wants some "real cases",until he meets Hooch: a junkyard type of bulldog who Scott is forced to work with when Hooch witnesses the murder of his owner and Scott has to take care of Hooch for a while and insanity ensues.The Good: In Turner and Hooch, Craig T. Nelson is the chief and he delivers a decent performance.Tom Hanks is somewhat funny in this film.Hooch makes Turner's life a living nightmare.The Bad: The script could have been written betterThe romance scenes are very unnecessaryAt the end of the movie, The Dog dies! Why!??!?!!?!?!? So Basically, it can go both ways but in all honesty, Turner and Hooch was good but not one of Tom Hanks' best work.6/10
