Alexander S Feb 4 I watched this movie at a friend’s place when I was a teenager. It was one of those straight-to-DVD movies that were campy and corny knockoffs of well-known films, especially this one for Cujo. That’s exactly what you can expect with Rottweiler. It’s very self-explanatory. Although I like the concept of a killer cybernetic Rottweiler. Grading: D- See more justin t 02/15/2022 There was no horror, no comedy, and no extreme violence. All there was in the movie was a psychotic dog that chased a deranged man. The story makes very little sense as it is not told in the correct order. The ending proved to be the only entertaining moment as the robot dog does its terminator impression. What should have been a violent tongue-in-cheek monster creature movie was just a boring and lacklustre yawn. See more 03/25/2015 Rottweiler is a premium example of false advertising. The titular robo-pup makes barely so much as a cameo, instead we see an attempt at a political commentary masquerading itself as a sci-fi creature feature. In practice it fails at being both these things. See more 02/13/2011 Sex and Violency sellz gud aint it? Another stupid SciFi piece of shit! See more 01/14/2011 Fantastic gore and a somewhat interesting plot. Extra marks for the complete lack of CGI. Well done Mr Yuzna! See more 08/23/2005 JEEZ, I PICKED THREE ROTTEN MOVIES TO RENT TONIGHT. THIS IS AN AWFUL FILM. HAVING TWO ROTTWEILER'S AS PETS GROWING UP, I AM OFFENDED BY HOW THEY ARE PORTRAYED. MY ROTTWEILERS WERE THE SWEETEST DOGS ON EARTH. CHEAPIE FILM, BADLY DONE IN MOST EVERY WAY. See more Read all reviews
