The Secret Life of Pets is a 2016 animated film that was made by the people that made Despicable Me. The film stars Louis C. K., Jenny Slate, Kevin Hart, and Albert Brooks.

The Plot:

Max is a dog who had a happy life with his owner Katie until Katie gets a second pet named Duke. Max and Duke start off as rivals who get lost from home, but eventually team up and try to get home. Gidget, a dog that has a crush on Max tries to find Max and a villainous bunny named Snowball is after Max.

The main plot of Max and Duke is okay, but Gidget's scenes are what make the film good. The subplot of Gidget is the film's best storyline and has the film's best scenes. The film combines cute stuff and comedy pretty well.

The Characters:

Max is pretty cool and well voiced by Louis C. K. and Duke is eh, but okay. Gidget is my favorite character. Gidget is adorable and makes the film better. Gidget is really well voiced by the very funny Jenny Slate. Snowball is my least favorite character. Kevin Hart is a decent actor, but he was annoying as Snowball. Snowball's a weak villain and his constant screaming is annoying. Pops and Chloe are amusing supporting characters. Tiberius is cool and goodly played by Albert Brooks.

The Animation:

The film looks good. All of the characters look pretty good. Gidget's design is adorable. Not the best animation, but the animation is good.

The Overall:

This film is good. It's not a masterpiece, but it's a fun and cute film. I'm looking forward to the sequel which should have a better villain than Snowball.
