"Hotel for Dogs" is a rather slight but enjoyable movie for the kids about two orphans who are themselves neglected in their foster home, but who give their all to save stray dogs. The dogs have personality, the siblings are ingenious, and the story is original. I'm not sure what Don Cheadle is doing in this piece of fluff - "Hotel Rwanda" to "Hotel for Dogs" is hard to fathom - but the acting is fine. Dog lovers of all ages will have a good time.Rated PG. 100 minutes.
