Synopsis

Scott Turner has 3 days left in the local police department before he moves to a bigger city to get some 'real' cases—not just misdemeanors. When Amos Reed is murdered, Scott sets himself on the case, but the closest thing to a witness to the murder is Reed's dog, Hooch, which Scott has to take care of—to avoid Hooch being 'put to sleep'.

nasimgolestani "Turner and Hooch" was an enlivening comedy makes us laugh loudly. It was a prize for me. Tom Hanks played its role admirably. However, when heroism is largely exaggerated, it loses its real influence. At the end of the film, when protagonist the dog, while dying, saves the life of Tom Hanks in the way of "the water margin", the viewer wants to cover her/himself with blanket, stop hearing and hug her/his hands and legs. The other issue in the film is the scene when Tom Hanks cuts a piece of meat into small pieces in a comical way with a tool like axes and gives it to dog, although the dog prevents eating. A question arises to my mind: why the blood of dog is not of one color? Because it is faithful? Because we can show the feeling of subjection in association with this beast and meanwhile keep calm and kind and kind-hearted? Why protests against killing of the other animals and using of their meat in a large amount and continuously, is extensively inconsiderable in comparison with protests against killing and hurting of dog? Because their meat is more delicious? Because dog is faithful and helpful in another way?
xsophietaylorx Turner & Hooch is just a harmless, cute film. Tom Hanks plays a police officer who ends up adopting a dog because he is the only witness to a murder. At the start they hate each over which is rather funny to watch, however as the film goes on you see them for a relationship. The film is fun to watch and occasionally makes you laugh but I really felt the ending fell flat when Hooch died I didn't feel the emotion it went over to quick we see Tom Hanks crying for around thirty seconds and then it flips to his new life married to the vet living in a home with many dogs & even a mini Hooch this felt like there was no mourning to Hooch he deserved a bigger death scene and more sadness as the audience we never even got a chance to cry because in a matter of minutes we were hit with this big happy ending! Good film but didn't enjoy the ending. Rip Hooch
wes-connors In a sleepy California coast town, neat and tidy police detective Tom Hanks (as Scott Turner) is assigned to investigate a murder witnessed only by an ugly, slobbering dog named "Hooch". Often showing off his trim physique in brief black underwear, Mr. Hanks finds his fastidiously decorated home damaged by his sloppy canine companion. Animal-loving veterinarian Mare Winningham (as Emily Carson) helps Hanks manage his house-guest, and you can smell the romance breaking a mile away. "Hooch" stinks up the police station, which could cause police chief Craig T. Nelson (as Howard Hyde) to call off the hunt. Just looking at Reginald Veljohnson (as David Sutton) in the credits lets you know he's Hanks' overweight partner. There is at least one surprise in this predictable, warm-hearted story; and, it isn't pretty.**** Turner & Hooch (7/28/89) Roger Spottiswoode ~ Tom Hanks, Mare Winningham, Craig T.
