"Strays" is a raunchy R-rated comedy featuring Jamie Foxx as the voice of Bug, a
street-smart Boston Terrier named Bug who drops F-bombs, gets high on mushrooms,
and engages in various outrageous antics. The film explores the unconventional
bond between Bug and Reggie (voiced by Will Ferrell), a Border Terrier who
embarks on a journey after being abandoned.
The movie employs its one-joke premise creatively within its running time,
subverting traditional dog adventure tropes while also touching on themes of
toxic relationships, self-worth, and unexpected friendships.
Directed by Josh Greenbaum, "Strays" balances
profanity and gross-out humor with heartwarming moments, and boasts a
strong voice cast chemistry, especially between Foxx and Ferrell. Despite
repetitive gags, the film concludes with a feel-good note, offering amusing
insights into a dog's perspective on the world. |
