Plot

An abandoned dog teams up with other strays to get revenge on his former owner. They say a dog is a man’s best friend, but what if the man is a total dirtbag? In that case, it might be time for some sweet revenge, doggy style. 

When Reggie (Will Ferrell), a naïve, relentlessly optimistic Border Terrier, is abandoned on the mean city streets by his lowlife owner, Doug (Will Forte; The Last Man on Earth, Nebraska), Reggie is certain that his beloved owner would never leave him on purpose. 

But once Reggie falls in with a fast-talking, foul-mouthed Boston Terrier named Bug (Oscar® winner Jamie Foxx), a stray who loves his freedom and believes that owners are for suckers, Reggie finally realizes he was in a toxic relationship and begins to see Doug for the heartless sleazeball that he is.  

Determined to seek revenge, Reggie, Bug, and Bug’s pals—Maggie (Isla Fisher; Now You See Me, Wedding Crashers), a smart Australian Shepherd who has been sidelined by her owner’s new puppy, and Hunter (Randall Park; Always Be My Maybe, Aquaman), an anxious Great Dane who’s stressed out by his work as an emotional support animal—together hatch a plan and embark on an epic adventure to help Reggie find his way home … and make Doug pay by biting off the appendage he loves the most. (Hint: It’s not his foot). 

Release Date

The Expected release of the movie is on 9th June 2023.

The Genre of the Movie

Dogs have been a popular subject in comedy films for decades. In fact, many of the most beloved and memorable comedy films of all time feature dogs in some way. One of the reasons for this is that dogs are often seen as lovable, loyal, and hilarious creatures, making them perfect fodder for comedy.

Some classic comedy films featuring dogs include “The Shaggy Dog” (1959), “Beethoven” (1992), and “Air Bud” (1997). These films all feature dogs in various comedic scenarios, from causing chaos in the household to becoming unlikely sports stars.

More recent comedy films featuring dogs include “The Secret Life of Pets” (2016) and its sequel, “The Secret Life of Pets 2” (2019). These films offer a humorous take on what our pets might be up to when we’re not around, featuring a cast of zany characters including a wisecracking Pomeranian and a villainous rabbit.

In addition to these family-friendly comedies, there are also a number of raunchy, adult-oriented comedies that feature dogs. Examples of these include “There’s Something About Mary” (1998), in which a dog gets caught up in a rather embarrassing situation, and “Step Brothers” (2008), in which a dog plays a supporting role in the film’s absurd plot.

Overall, the dog-comedy genre has something for everyone, whether you’re looking for a family-friendly film to watch with your kids or a raunchy comedy to watch with your friends.

Audience Expectations 

If a movie were to combine comedy, dogs, adventure, and revenge, there would likely be certain expectations for the plot, characters, and overall tone of the film. 

Given that this movie would be a comedy, audiences would likely expect a lighthearted tone throughout. Even if the plot involves elements of adventure and revenge, there would likely be plenty of humor sprinkled throughout the film to keep things light and entertaining. If this movie were to feature a “dog squad,” audiences would expect to see a diverse cast of canine characters with unique personalities and abilities. Each dog would likely have their own strengths and weaknesses, and audiences would root for them as they embark on their adventure and seek revenge. In order to make the adventure and revenge plotlines compelling, there would need to be high stakes involved. Perhaps the dogs are seeking revenge against a nefarious human who has wronged them in some way, and the adventure involves them going to great lengths to track down their target. The stakes would need to be high enough to keep audiences invested in the outcome. Given the adventure aspect of the film, audiences would likely expect plenty of action and exciting set pieces. This could include chase scenes, fight scenes, and other moments of high drama and tension.

Finally, audiences would likely expect some heartwarming moments throughout the film, particularly between the dogs and their human handlers. Even as the dogs seek revenge and go on an adventure, they would still be loyal and loving companions, and audiences would want to see that bond on display.

Conclusion

In conclusion, we can expect a different aspect of the human and dog relationship from this movie Strays. A revenge story of an animal on a human is always fun to watch, we can expect thrilling moments from the movie.
