We review the big screen adaptation of Dav Pilkey’s comic supacop, Dog Man. We cover the complicated logistics of breaking up with your boyfriend when his head has been replaced by a dog’s; the tightrope-walking required to adapt a beloved book series for the screen; and whether Dog Man’s origin story is actually far more gruesome and disturbing than we thought.
Previous episodes we mention:
Dog Man made us think of these shows and books for grown ups:
- Nightbitch
- Fun Home
We cast our gritty reboot with these actors:
- Andy Serkis as Dog Man
- JK Simmons as Petey
