I know you have to be "unique" as a critic and all but please stop blowing the movies flaws out of proportion. You really remind me of that Simpsons episode when Homer was a food critic and had to pooh-pooh everything he ate.
Yes, the dialogue could have been more but the plot did exist, the dog did have a part, and the movie was really well done. The costumes, the acting (I'll give you Orlando Bloom wasn't as good as he could be), and the story were great. It was fast paced and very fun.
It was a solid movie and I recommend it to all for a very entertaining time.
