Editorial Review:
Product Description: Jack Crews, veteran truck driver, is being chased by Red, a fanatic who's as deadly as he is greedy. Genre: Feature Film-Action/Adventure Rating: PG13 Release Date: 8-FEB-2005 Media Type: DVD
Amazon.com: An ex-con daredevil trucker must reinfect himself with white-line fever in order to save his wife and kid from nasty gunrunners in this enjoyably mindless, twisted-metal-fest from the director of Passenger 57. Longtime MIA action stud Patrick Swayze (who snagged the part after Kevin Sorbo had to suddenly vacate due to health problems) is even more expressionless than usual in the lead role, but helmer Kevin Hooks compensates with a seriously rocking country soundtrack, some pleasantly eccentric supporting characters (including erstwhile crooner Randy Travis and a way-over-the-top Meatloaf as a psychotic trucker preaching damnation by the dashboard light), and--most importantly--a whole lot of rolling iron getting smashed in spectacularly kinetic fashion. A low-down, down-home, cotton-picking flick that blows up real good. --Andrew Wright

Rating: - WHHEEEEEEEEEEEE DOGGIES!!!
Spectacular Epic of Monumental Proportions. A first-rate action adventure classic suspense sci-fi fantasy country-western educational comedy drama thriller gang-bang documentary. Head and shoulders above the other great films of it's genre (The Godfather, Scarface, Goodfellas, Casino, etc). Definitely a crowning achievement. It will probably go down as the #1 movie of all time. Also, the check is in the mail, I'll respect you in the morning, and I have a bridge for sale. YOU BETCHA!!!
Rating: - Black Dog
I would recommend this movie to anyone, it is very action figured and keeps your attention.
Rating: - Very poor plot for reasonably good actors
Black Dog is about Patrick Swayze being an outlaw trucker. Meatloaf and Randy Travis both star in this as well.
I have a fairly high tolerance for silly movies, and I really like Patrick Swayze. So I'm willing to cut this movie a lot of slack. This review gives away a few plot points - but don't worry, none of them will be a surprise to you when you watch anyway :)
Patrick is a guy who accidentally killed someone while driving a truck. He saw the "black dog" - he in essence ... Read More
Rating: - black dog
as a truck driver there are lyths and legends this isnt one of them but it s a very good movie
Rating: - Doesn't Live Up To Potential
I really wanted to like Black Dog I really did. Unfortunately it hovers between watchable and turn it off for most of the film. The few action sequences in the film are clever ideas however they do not leave the viewer with the same excitement as many action clips. I felt bad for the actors, almost all of which are very good, because the script is very bland even for an action. The characters are very 2 dimensional and are not very original. You have The Loner, The Feuding Cops, The Lovable Oaf, The Stupid ... Read More
