Was 'Charlie the Wonder Dog' a good movie?

Posted 1/16/2026

Directed by Shea Wageman, "Charlie the Wonderdog" is a vibrant CG-animated adventure that blends superhero spectacle with a heartwarming story of friendship. Voiced by Owen Wilson, Charlie is an aging, beloved family pet whose life takes an extraordinary turn when he is abducted by aliens. Instead of being lost, he is returned to Earth gifted with incredible superpowers, quickly becoming a global sensation. While the world celebrates its new canine hero, Charlie's nine-year-old owner, Danny (Dawson Littman), struggles with the sudden rift caused by his dog’s newfound fame, fearing he is losing his best friend to the demands of heroism.

The stakes escalate when the neighborhood’s jealous cat, Puddy (Ruairi MacDonald), hatches a diabolical scheme to pollute the human food chain and dismantle society. To save the day, Charlie must look beyond his super-strength and speed, learning that true heroism is rooted in the "ordinary" values of courage, kindness, and self-belief. Produced by Canada’s Icon Creative Studio and featuring original music by Bryan Adams, the film has been praised for Owen Wilson's signature wit and its "four-quadrant" appeal. Scheduled for a wide theatrical release on January 16, 2026, the movie serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring bond between humans and their pets, even when that bond is tested by the literal weight of the world.
