K-911

LAPD detective Mike Dooley and his German Shepherd partner Jerry Lee have worked together for a decade, but Jerry Lee is getting older and slower. When the dog fails to keep up during a chase, Dooley's superiors push for retirement and assign him a new team: Sergeant Welles and her highly disciplined Doberman, Zeus. Dooley resists, and the mismatch between his easygoing, scruffy style and the newcomers' strict training makes for a rough adjustment. A dangerous criminal targeting Dooley eventually forces the four of them to work as one unit.

K-911 is a 2000 action comedy directed by Charles T. Kanganis, the third film he directed and the one that followed Dennis the Menace Strikes Again! two years earlier. Gary Scott Thompson wrote the screenplay, David Bixler produced, and Jim Belushi returns as Dooley, with Christine Tucci, James Handy, Wade Williams, Scotch Ellis Loring and J.J. Johnston in supporting roles. The film runs 91 minutes and was released directly by Universal Home Entertainment.

On IMDb it holds a 5.6 rating from roughly 5,300 votes, while on TMDB it sits at 5.7 from about 276 votes, a narrow gap between the two audiences. A critics' rating of 4.7 from six reviews falls below both audience scores.
