FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://www.msbreviews.com/movie-reviews/clifford-the-big-red-dog-spoiler-free-review "Clifford the Big Red Dog holds cute, emotional moments that will tug at any pet lover's heartstrings, as well as the usual sweet messages destined to younger audiences, but it all comes at the cost of creating a deceptive, fake-looking world. CGI Clifford surprisingly looks decent, but inserting a digital dog in real sets while interacting with real people, leaves the viewers with a weird feeling that never quite goes away. Unfortunately, the dog isn't the most artificial element of the movie. Besides being expectedly childish, incredibly formulaic, and exaggerated in every possible way, the characters and the main narrative are far from looking, sounding, and being authentic. In the end, it's a disappointingly hollow adaptation that kids will inevitably love, but adults will find it hard to endure." Rating: C-
