All Dogs Go To Heaven is a musical, animated exploration of the fundamental conflict between good and bad and of the notions of caring and friendship. While all dogs may be welcome in heaven, the open admission policy doesn't necessarily ensure that a dog is worthy of, or even ready to accept his heavenly blessing. When criminal dog Charlie Barker (Burt Reynolds) and his sidekick Itchy (Dom DeLuise) escape from the dog pound, it isn't long before they realize that former business partner-in-crime Carface (Vic Taybak) has turned against them. Carface puts a permanent end to the partnership by killing Charlie, but Charlie ascends to heaven only to spurn his promised life devoid of surprises and fight to return to a life of vengeance, danger, and adventure on earth. When Charlie realizes that Carface has been using the animal-talking talents of young orphan girl named Anne-Marie (Judith Barsi) to further the success of his gambling business, Charlie steals her away and starts his own lucrative business venture. Charlie and Anne-Marie begin to become friends, but Anne-Marie's strong sense of what is right conflicts with Charlie's complete lack of moral standards and puts their friendship at risk. Worse, Charlie's quest for revenge threatens his own life as well as the lives of his friends Anne-Marie and Itchy. (Ages 6 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

Customer Review: BETTER NOW THAT I'M OLDER AND CAN UNDERSTAND THE OVERALL MEANING OF THE MOVIE
One day I walked into my family room and say my 8 year old brother watching All Dogs go to Heaven 2 and really having a good time. When I asked him if he wanted to see the original, he said "what original?". I was stunned. How could anyone not have seen the first ADGH? It was mind boggling. I then took it upon myself to look through the hundreds of VHS tapes we had and find ADGH. After hors of searching I finally found it and popped it into the VCR. Wow, I was stunned. I had expected to be disappointed by how bad yet another of the movies I loved as a kid really was. But instead I ended up likening it a whole lot better now that I was older. This movie is so moving at moments that I really think it can make a grown man cry (all through it's not likely to have the same effect on little kids. They just won't understand what's going on). Eth part when Anne Marie is singing in the attic of the abandoned church is one of the saddest parts of any movie that I have ever seen. But the real treat I found was that the songs that I loved as a kid don't annoy me now that I'm 17. In fact, there almost as good (Anne Maries is better now that I know what she's singing about). Word of caution though, in this movie there is a lot of stuff that you won't want a small kid to see. There's drinking, smoking, murder, death, hell, gambling, fist fights, gunfights, a singing alligator, and one of the scariest depictions of hell ever to be shown on screen. But I think that if the kids over 6 years old they can handle it. Just because they see a dog smoking doesn't mean they'll immediately go out and start to smoke. This movie is one of the best films ever made. Very deep and moving at times and also full of fun. YOU MUST SEE THIS MOVIE NOW.
