Beethoven - Special Edition (BLU-RAY)

Your entire family will fall in love with the big-hearted, wet-nosed star of this howlingly entertaining hit from producer Ivan Reitman (Kindergarten Cop)! Barely escaping from nefarious dog-nappers, an adorable puppy named Beethoven adopts the unsuspecting Newton family—and promptly grows up into 185 pounds of romping, drooling, disaster-prone St. Bernard! Unfortunately, even after proving his canine credentials to mom and the kids, the heroic hound gets nowhere with uptight dad, George (Charles Grodin, The Heartbreak Kid). But when a beastly veterinarian (Dean Jones, The Love Bug) makes Beethoven the target of an unspeakable animal experiment, George becomes the only hope for saving the Newtons’ furriest family member. This “shaggy dog” story written by legends John Hughes (Uncle Buck) and Amy Holden Jones (Mystic Pizza) may well be the most fetching canine comedy ever made! Wonderfully directed by Brian Levant (Jingle All the Way) and co-starring Bonnie Hunt (Jumanji), Oliver Platt (The Ice Harvest), Stanley Tucci (Spotlight), David Duchovny (The X-Files) and Patricia Heaton (Everybody Loves Raymond).
