Critic Reviews

Richard Corliss

Has a whirligig wit, and 11 songs crammed into its 67 minutes: that's more melodic content than in most Broadway musicals. Read full review

Kevin Thomas

Smart and stylish, Disney's Teacher's Pet is one family film that has appeal for adults as well as children. Read full review

Mark Holcomb

Continues Disney's trend of crafting animated movies as much for adult viewers as for their pre-adolescent progeny. Read full review

Nancy Churnin

You don't have to be a fan of the TV show to enjoy watching this dog chase his shtick. Read full review

Tasha Robinson

Impatient adult escorts ought to appreciate the brevity, and their kids should find plenty of good-natured diversion in the film's generally charming story. Read full review

Paula Nechak

More like the kid shows that populate Nickelodeon. Read full review

Rick Groen

Despite the running time being too short, Teacher's Pet is exactly something a teacher will hold on to and pretend it to be his/her pet. Also ignoring the "Be careful what you wish for" cliché, Teacher's Pet is a teacher's pet.

The movie was fun to say the least. Entertaining for children and possibly adults as well.
