As the audience burst into applause, I was baffled, perhaps even befuddled, at the film’s appeal
Just over a week after my therapist told me that it seems as if I were going through something wholly “existential” , I found myself seated for. As the first 10 minutes of the R-rated doggy flick trudged on with the grace of a forgottenepisode, I found myself thinking “My therapist must be right.” What other reason could I have had for being, dare I say, excited to watch a live-action
following a group of dogs out for revenge on a derelict pet owner? What exactly had possessed me to spend my time like this?John Wick ? Maybe I was still riding on the high of my own dog’s recent birthday party? I knew that the premise had obviously struck some sort of interest for a past version of me but now, weeks later, in the open prison of my theatre seat, as I watched Will Forte shave a giant pile of pubic hair off of his genitals, I knew that something had gone terribly wrong for me.
While I love some bawdy humour myself, Strays’ repetitive bits about schlongs, poop, and pee start to feel more like a gross twenty-year-old dude endlessly harassing you at a bar rather than a raucous good time. Perrault takes dirty jokes and, rather than offer the adult ribaldry of blue comedy, instead goes fully pubescent, leaving us with humour that begins and lands in the same place.
