BEVERLY HILLS CHIHUAHUA (2008)
The trailer with the musical number was awful, bordering on Michael Jackson-creepy, but the movie itself is a surprisingly fun adventure. It's easy to forget the main characters are dogs; everyone's met a Chloe in Beverly Hills. The movie actually tackles topical issues like the importance of dog adoptions, and the horrors of dog-fighting, remaining hopeful rather than depressing, and shines a light on the waste of treating small pooches like fashion accessories.
