The best thing on offer is Piper Parabo, whose sparkly personality and ample comedic skill aren't given nearly enough screen time.....This being Disney the locations are lush, the set pieces elaborate, and the characters rigidly stereotypical, which actually borders on the mildly offensive..... ...

it's also what makes Beverly Hills Chihuahua so endearing.....In many ways it reminded me of the wholesome movies....I'd recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys comedies about animals.....It's nowhere near as annoying as the movie from a few years ago, , but it actually has quite a lot of charm..... ...

This is truly a sloppy movie, with a sloppy script, and even sloppy effects.....the cinematography is terrible..... ... Full Review

The only good thing about the deleted scenes was....There must have been hundreds of cute doggy moments on the set!....While it has a few precious moments (like watching the trainers convince a German Shepherd to lay flat on his belly while a Chihuahua stood on his head), it wasn't the wildly coo-worthy feature I had hoped for.....The saving grace of the DVD is the feature audio commentary by director Raja Gosnell ..... ...

It's just not a strong enough movie to recommend.....If you enjoy the movie, you'll probably be moderately pleased with the DVD.....it's not a very good movie.....The animation is pretty simplistic, but the narration is clever.....If there is a good family comedy to be made about talking Chihuahuas, they will have to do a little better than this..... ...

Beyond the obvious frivolity, the film is smartly structured with two parallel realities, allowing both the humans and the animals to interact within their own worlds.

A smart script ("I love the smell of dirt in the morning", enthuses the next-door Chihuahua Papi who loves Chloe), special effects and nifty vocal casting (Drew Barrymore speaking for Chloe and Andy Garcia for her rescuer) add to the fun. Director Raja Gosnell keeps the plentiful thrills and laughs coming at a rapid pace and definitely delivers the goods with a high-spirited array of astounding animal antics that enjoyment-seeking youngsters would be barking mad to miss. ...
