This week Steve Reviews takes a look at the Isle of Dogs. A dark yet qwerky film produced by Wes Anserson, also knows for his Fantastic Mr Fox in 2009. But is this film the dog's b*llocks, or is it rather a big pile of rubbish....

The sneeze isn't just for comedic affect. It's something dogs actually do. They sneeze, or "snuff" as it's often called, to break tension and tell other dogs "hey, I'm just playing," or "hey, this situation is kinda tense and it doesn't have to be."
I have no reason to point this out. I just kind of thought that was neat and wanted to share.
Ohhhh
Good to know
Thanks for informing us?😃
That’s so cool! I never knew that!
Aw
Yeah for someone who has a dog it’s cute on paper but not in life
*_The most iconic part about Isle Of Dogs is the sushi scene. The sequence might have taken 1 minute in spare, but in reality, the stop motion took 8 MONTHS to complete. That's really impressive!_*
I liked that scene too
That sushi scene made me hungry
Where, ?
How is taking 8 months to finish impressive? If anything, it's very inefficient and indicates they did something wrong for it to take that long.
It was very satisfying
*_I'm more into cheese then sushi but even I find this impressive._*
I really like how the language barrier is purposefully used in this film. The entire film is mostly told through the dogs perspectives, who obviously can't understand human speech. We as the audience don't get subtitles because the dogs don't get them either.
I also find it interesting that the foriegn exchange student, who is constantly championing the dogs cause, speaks english almost exclusively despite knowing Japanese. She is literally speaking the dogs language.
That's what makes the movie fun to watch. Its honestly brilliant.
I feel like the animal can talk the same way with human it just they can't understand the language unlike in Mr. Fantastic Fox they can understand each other cause they all speak English
@@JoseMendoza-JAM they don't have vocal cords
@@carolsnyman630 They do..?
@@carolsnyman630 bark bark, woof woof.
vocal cords
Fun fact: If you say "Isle of Dogs" Faster, it sounds like
"I love dogs"
I'm pretty sure that was partially why they named it that
Cream Daddy this is a very interesting movie and that it’s only available in the U.S and Germany
Ironic that they're dumped on an island
Jems the American yeah that is weird
To me it sounds like "i sold dogs"
*Sees "Dogs" in a Steve Reviews episode*
Me: Uh oh
As shit, here we go again
Aw*
It's fine, the dogs mostly end up ok.
Emma goes roar ! 🤣🤣🤣

"But that's a nit pick..."

Nice.
I'm glad someone noticed that ;D
very meta
Glad I wasn’t the ONLY one who noticed. Got a genuine chuckle from that one.

The reason the 4 dogs kinda give themselves to Atari is b/c they were all originally 'house dogs' & in the beginning of the film they talked about how they wanted to just quit, they were pets, they're not used to being dirty, eating garbage, & fighting other dogs on a daily basis.
Plus, they all speak highly of the 'masters' & would want nothing more than to return to their original comfy life style.
So, to me, it makes sense why they all become so obedient when Atari 'takes control' of the pack.
4:04 His teeth aren't explosive. He's just hitting their weak spot which causes them to explode.

Honestly I love, the “all over the place” style of these movies. The animation, the dry humor and overall everything. It’s funny it’s unique and it’s refreshing.
10/10
*I see*
Something about it has a creepy vibe to it because of the very mellow tone of voice. That with the dry humor is kinda unsettling. I feel that way with all of his movies. But because I saw this in theaters, I felt more comfort. Pretty sure if I didn't, I will feel uneasy.
I want to like it but if I do I'll ruin the 666 likes
@@bigboomer1013 do they give you the uncanny valley effect?
dry humour is refreshing, *interesting*
When the puppies made human infant noises I freaked out, uncanny as hell.
whoopsydaizy i was kind of expecting normal puppy noises even though the dogs spoke English
I died inside of cuteness too
I thought it was creepy
@@ChristianFilming they meant freaked out in a bad way. uncanny is used as a way to express something that is unnervingly human but not quite there
@@ChristianFilming I never can watch that scene with other people around. It's just too heart melting.
I hope someone noticed the Y and O barrettes in the Scientist’s hair, they stand for the lady who voiced her, Yoko Ono.
And to be honest, the cinematography was an absolute love letter to older Japanese films especially Seven Samurai (which inspired the Magnificent Seven)
Listen to the scene where the foreign exchange student meets her in the science bar. She is actually literally called Yoko Ono.
Yea it also says her name at the start of the film
Yoko Ono is in this?
I'm impressed she didn't... sang ....
Also the pants she is wearing, I LOVE THOSE PANTS
Ooo that's super interesting! I've been trying to figure out for months what the fuck yttrium and oxygen meant for so long 😭😭 thank u so much for sharing!!
15:46 I don’t really see this as her being shown to be fluent in Japanese. It just shows her being able to have this exchange, which seems to be a common exchange she has with the people she stays with. You can know certain phrases in other languages while still having so little knowledge as to find it easier to use your native language.
When he first said megasaki I thought he said Nagasaki and I was like

Yeah, I thought it was a stupid rumor like that birds are controlled by the government
Me too
@@fallenknighttyler8695 the birds are controlled by the govt
Interesting how there was no Shiba inu despite them being from Japan
Too obvious?🤷🏽♀️
Well it's not a real Japanese city so I guess they took it as an opportunity to be diverse with the breeds. Vs every other dog being an Akita or Shiba
A little dogist but ok
@go succ a ducc you mean breedist?
Oop-
13:56 I think what’s happening here is that Spots was translating what the owl was saying and since he and Atari have those things that help them understand each other, Atari could also understand what the owl was saying.
I was so sad they underutilized the main pack. they all had a lot of character and were a delight, so their absence in the second half hurt. I almost freaked out when they supposedly "died" (but were fine because the machines were broken down). they could have done so much more on the second half or at least been in most of the shots
I think the point of the exchange student is that she was the voice for the dogs. All the humans spoke Japanese while all the dogs spoke English, creating a rift between them, but the exchange student also spoke English. Yeah, she didn’t do much, but she was there for the purpose of representing them.
why would the dogs only speak english if they were born in Japan? That makes no sense. Not yelling at you or anything, but why would that be?
frostdragon64 Like they mentioned, it symbolized a divide, why the dogs speaked specifically english? That I don’t know
@@frostdragon64 where you're born doesn't determine what language you speak......but the dogs spoke english so we the audience can understand them since they are the main characters of the film & it was like english was the dog language
@@frostdragon64 i know someone that was born in japan but he doesnt know how to speak Japanese
@@Lando-kx6so i think the dogs left early from japan
Steve: Megasaki is not real.
Me: *hears "Nagasaki is not rea"l* Ah, okay, cool.
Same
Emperor Bunny Bun had to go back twice and relisten cuz I thought he said Nagasaki too 😂
Ooowh that makes so much more sense
@@shiver8082 W H A T?
what is nagasaki
Atari couldn't understand the dogs, except for Spots or Chief when they're wearing the headset. When the dog was yelling for him to land, it's assumed that he's being barked at. Seeing how calm the dogs were the whole time, you'd assume something went wrong if they're chasing him barking.
This reminds me of those Japanese islands like rabbit island, or cat island. I think it's people dumping the animals there, then they breed and cause a mass population.
the islands i heard about were the cat island the fox island and the rabbit island and i heard they also brought racoons cuz they were cute, but who knows there could be even more islands

I don't like how well your profile picture matches your comment so well.
i can understand what my dog is trying to tell me when he needs something or something is wrong. no language needed, and the scenes where Atari is seemingly understanding what the dogs are saying, there's context in the motions of whats happening.
the owl scene you can watch chief looking very panicked and focused on the owl, looks back to the other side of the island with determination in his eyes.

"No, it actually has a happy ending."
X DOUBT
I know. I've seen so many films with unhappy endings, I was surprised it ended so well. I was expecting the dogs to all die.
@@FlutterMouse I agree. I really like Isle of Dogs, but it does seem like most movies that Steve has reviewed that have dogs as the main leads seem to have an open or negative fate *cough cough* Plague Dogs *cough cough*
Wait it has a happy end? Yay! Now I can finish the video without pretending all the characters magically heal all injuries and live happily ever after.
No it actually did
Yeah. I sa2 the movie and was kind of suprised with the good ending
The shear amount of effort that went into this film is astounding
When you played the "have you heard the rumours" I almost lost my shit because I haven't seen this film but hearing Jeff goldblumes voice makes it 100% a film I must watch
Stop-motion truly is the most timeless form of animation

It's very Japanese humour.
@@SomeBritishGal1 really
i thought that whole romance subplot was kind of random :/ like they should have fleshed it out more or removed it completely. that part was funny though
@@klikbate8916 eh I didn't exactly like it nor did I hate it at least it didn't take too much time out of the main story
This movie is so underrated
I watched this with my fiancé, I laughed when the dogs got separated and went into the machine. She got onto me because she thought I was laughing at dead dogs. The way they just breeze through the machine was funny.
As soon as i saw the title i had to click. This film is a masterpiece imo
Agreed
What is: imo?
@@insertedgynamehere___969 in my opinion
@@finchii thanks
I love the movie as well although I think Fantastic Mr Fox is slightly better
The story is actually weird and original......
There isn't a Wes Anderson movie with a boring and forgettable plot.
Your thinking of paul w.s andersan
They had us in the first part, not gonna lie.
@@yukionnaslayer1
He killed resident evil now he's off to kill monster hunter with his bitch.
I liked Tracy’s character, although I feel like she could’ve been written a tad bit better (don’t harass me, I still love this movie!)
1. Why didn’t we get more backstory/backbone about Tracy?
She just kinda comes out of nowhere, even though she’s important to the ending plot, I would still appreciate a little more story on her.
2. Like he said, why didn’t the female scientist take the antidote herself to prove it?
Sure, Tracy is apart of the “Pro-dog,” group, but why didn’t the female scientist just get the job done herself? I know she was absolutely devastated after the death of the other scientist (who I ultimately forgot the name of :/,) but still.
And finally, 3. How how how did she fall for Atari that easily- I don’t think they had any screen time together when she found out about him on the news, and before Atari had actually gotten back to island.
She is attracted to his sheer intellect
I think Tracy is there only to connect the plot to the audience, specially foreing. A silly requirement from Us companies where everything must be Americanized.
Bruh
Well we know that Nutmeg belonged to her
I think the issue with her character is that her actions come off as more passive than active, since a lot of the story from her point of view isn’t driven because of her own independent actions, but external forces, so she’s there sort of as a point of view for us.
Honestly impressed how he talked about this movie for a solid 19 minutes and didn’t mention the sushi scene once 😂
13:20 The reason Spots and Atari could communicate is because of that little ear device they wear. And I think the reason for the other dogs following Atari just like that is because they, unlike Chief, are extremely domesticated and are accustomed to human orders in general, master or not.
Something I notice with Wes Anderson movies is how often he has characters facing the camera.
I think the thing with the boy commanding the protag dogs is a joke playing on these still being dogs and listening to the human they're find of.
Steve Reviews: finishes story summary
YT: Want some Sour Patch Kids?
Mine said " hey kid, want sum Gatorade?".
My Ad said stop vaping lol I don’t even smoke/vape
I do have issues with Atari.
He made a horrible Jaguar.
madcat789 aaaaaaaaaa I get it haha
You should see his ET!
And it never released his "Beast" for the last gen. of consoles... DANG IT ATARI!!!
Isle of Dogs
I love Dogs
I love this naming scheme. Thanks Wes.
Also the movie was released of the Chinese Zodiac Year for the Dog.. 🐾
It's Wes Anderson's apologie to Dog Lovers
Isle don't get it
Btw ( spoilers) one of the kids are holding a sign that says “scrap.” At the beginning of the movie scrap talks to spots when he is in the cage.
Everyone’s talking about sushi scene but like the whole thing matched up in quality but I do agree that it took a lot of dedication and I love the whole movie. My favorite other then jurassic park.
I'm curious as to how certain issues were addressed that we didn't see in the epilogue. Many dogs died on the island, so I hope their owners were HEAVILY compensated for the losses

2020: Dont bother, it's too late, Corona is here!
@Age Restrictions what
Age Restrictions this is the first time I seen this movie and when I watched it I was like what am I watching then I realize it’s a really really good movie that you don’t need to know what’s going on
Corona: It's too late, people!
And let's not forgot that the scientist that first openly spoke about the outbreak (in China) died as well.
*What a coincidence!*
The best part about this movie and Fantastic Mr. Fox is that it isn’t meant to be taken to seriously. Kick back, enjoy, and don’t take it too seriously either
"...and all is good and happy..."
Let's be honest, I'm not really saying anything new when I say all of us expected "But wait, it's not." XD
review reccomendations:
- spongebob movie (2004)
- the dark crystal (1982) and the dark crystal: age of resistance
- the rugrats movie (1998)
- help i'm a fish
- rango (2011)
- the adventures of ichabod and mr.toad (1949)
- love death and robots
- spirit stallion of the cimarron
I agree with that list, especially Age of Resistance
Agreed special with the dark crystal and help I'm a fish
Oohhh just hearing the name ‘Duke’ makes me wanna cry.
(I had a Beagle named Duke who was put down in February)
I'm so sorry to hear that. :(
I saw this on Disney+ and it's an instant classic because of the animation, the performances and the shocking elements of dogs in a remote
island. Wes Anderson is a creative genius. I love that film. People should appreciating this wonderful workmanship even so many animators making it worked. GREAT VID!
Please review the Prince of Egypt. It's not as dark as other films you review but it's a gorgeous animation with excellent musical numbers. It has a dark part of it though. It's been forgotten to time and it deserves a review from you.
Please.
Agreed.
how was prince pf Egypt not dark. 0_0; the whole story was of moses, such as the drowning of babies in the nile, him and rami causing chaos causing ppl to be hurt/killed. and other stuff. those biblical movies from dreams works were dark as hell. xD
Oh they made a sequel of plague dogs?
*F A N T A S T I C*
This sequel is just more upbeat.
Haha!
Looks like they DID find the island!
Looks like they did find an island after all.
@JapaneseGiant Lizard1234 proof?
I actually wanted to see this movie cause I’m a stop motion junkie but I’m glad I got to know the ending
Atari has a few screws loose, cause he has a frecking pipe in his head.
that hunger game whistle moment made me have a weird sad feeling
A OWL
Personally, while I thought this movie was grotesque and strange, I found it more enjoyable than any Disney movie I'd seen since 2007.
Because it was able to be so straight up and out there with it's message and wasn't afraid to show some blood, it made it more interesting to watch.
A majority of movies I see now all follow the same.. Rules.
Kid's film? No death. No blood. Certainly no broken bones.
Adult action film? Explosions. Car chases. Guns.
Adult.. Sexy film? Sex. Sex. Cocaine. Sex. Drugs. More sex.
This being aimed towards kids and having the BALLS to show us dead animals, blood, fighting.. The works?
It makes it a hidden gem in my book. Yes, some parts were silly or stupid. But it IS still intended to be a kid's movie. This is more like the movies I remember watching when I was LITTLE. I'm talking The Last Unicorn and that one My Little Pony movie where sentient purple sludge tried to suffocate a bunch of pastel talking horses and some little kids.
To me, the movie was good. Why? Because even though it was aimed at kids, it didn't treat kids like they're stupid and throw a bunch of glitter and pop songs in their face.
It was good. A good movie, about a bunch of good boys and girls.
Yes, exactly!!! Thank you!!! This is exactly what I've been thinking.
A little sidenote: I especially hate it when so-called 'adult' movies just throw sex because HAHA ADULTS RIGHT????. It just pisses me to no end when sex has no real meaning besides the obvious 'WE ARE ADULT!!!! WE ARE DOING AN ADULT!!!!!'.
I agree with everything you say here, PG is basically G now. There are always some PG movies that are TRUELY PG, like Spider Man Into the Spider Verse, and Kubo. I don't think this was aimed at kids though, My brother, who was 8 at the time, couldn't handle it.
My god.. MY LITTLE PONY: THE MOVIE.. the SMOOZE 😂
I'm proud to say that there's gore in this movie
@@TailsGuy72 Kubo and Into The Spiderverse are absolute gems. I hate sounding like I'm old when I'm not even 30 or anything, but modern era movies and TV shows tend to be a disappointment. However, this one and those weren't. They're worthy of all praise and awards they recieve.
They don't rely on pop songs and a bunch of glitter to keep your kids focused, they focus on telling a story to them, and it's up to your kids on whether or not they listen.
I like that in a film.
"The uncle and the corrupt government all get sent to prison" *Japanese prison* O_o that's harsh!
How is it harsh exactly i mean isn't the setting in Japón
Wes Anderson's style is purposely very theatrical. It takes some getting used to, but I'm absolutely in love with the method. It constantly reminds you this is a movie. He likes showing the strings and zippers behind his special effects. he announces comedically small time jumps like the audience hasn't gotten used to cut to sequence editing yet. The characters look at the camera like they're trying to gauge the audience's reaction. His love stories tend to be more emotional slapstick than anything else.It'll be something like Owen Wilson says "I think I've loved you my whole life", and Gwynith Paltrow says "But I'm married to your brother. Isn't that wrong?" What he sees as weaknesses are its strong points to me. I also think the great thing about the American is that she's very American. We intervene. We stick our nose in everyone's business. Meaning the exchange student comes off as very brave, very heroic, very condescending, and very tone deaf all at the same time. I saw that and I'm like "yep, those are my people" XD.
12:29 I think they're trying to pass it off as him fumbling his words and letting out that phrase on accident. All that pressure from the crowd would do that. But they handled it pretty badly, theres no former scene telling you Atari's nervous.
That's just part of being Japanese, keeping your feelings hidden no matter the consequences.
Fun fact, I watched this in theatres. During the volcano scene i nearly shat myself, that booming sound was terrifying
2:13 that’s been obvious since the first few minecraft mob votes.
I've always thought the city was called Nagasaki instead of Megasaki, oops.
Me too
Same
I'll be honest, I've never seen the film, but it looks and sounds amazing. One huge gripe I have though, is that the villains have cats. Such an old, painful trope. I get it, dog film so cats are bad, but cats can get along with dogs.
TopsyTriceratops I don’t think the cats are actually treated like the bad guys though. I think it’s more the fact that there are no more dogs left so people have cats. I believe cats are very popular in Japan so that might be why.
watch the movie before commenting on it. The cats play a plot point, and not used in the "evil villain" trope.
its a joke on how cats and dogs fight and how the mayor and his cabnit love cat's not dogs.
I watched this movie on a plane. The cats aren't evil. If you've never seen the film don't make this assumption. Also cats are the more popular pet in Japan and a majority of America anyways. If anything dogs are the ones that deserve better, they go through so much abuse, yet still get portrayed as human killing beasts, as the dogs in this movie have diseases, instead of helping the dogs, they banished them
TopsyTriceratops there’s jails with cats tho idl
Nine times out of ten dogs and cats don't get along we know this I have a dog and a cat and they tolerate each other but never shall the Twain meet without some hissing.
What are you going to complain about the cats versus mice next?
I've said it once, and I'll say it again.

Agreed, The film is too childish to me. I mean it obviously cashing on adults who grew up with the series , why not make a somewhat "more" adult-oriented show?
1:11 "Okay it's worth it."
I don't know if I should feel ashamed or proud for how you brought that sponsor connecting to the movie in a stupidly genius way.
Well done.
I was so excited for this film as Fantastic Mr Fox was and still is my favorate film, but when I finally watched it the plot, and the characters where nowhere near the level that FMF had. Plus I think the humans in fmf looked so much better than in Isle of Dogs, like Bean genuinely looked like Michael Gambon ( his voice actor).
But I still wouldn’t say that Isle of Dogs was a bad film, I just think that compared to FMF, it isn’t as well put together
Oliver Sidaway Thank you! That’s exactly my thoughts. Isle of Dogs would actually rank low on the Anderson movies I’ve watched.
Fantastic mr fox was made from a pre-existing story. isle of dogs isn't.
if you are familiar with japanese folklore, and the story of hachi Isle of dogs makes more sense.
I havent seen it yet (somehow? Cause im forgetful? Fmf is in my top 10 for sure, so me having not seen this yet makes no sense) .. but even though i havent seen it
I wana say your wrong & its awesome..and im not going to be disappointed because youre WRONG... lmao. Ahah, sorry im just so excited for this
One thing i didn't get was why the animals had American accent's while all the Humans had British one's also the Animals should've had British accent's as the film is set in England
Azazura Azura while that is true, only the first half of FMF is actually based on the book if you’ve read it, most of that film was entirely original, so
12:07 I saw that as her mistranslating his speech because she had a crush on him.
4:49
Let’s hope the group didn’t say “I want to hear it again!” XD
*Plague Dogs flashbacks* >~<
Oh... this movie is more lighthearted than I thought! :3
It has an amazing feel
I will wrap up this review in one word: “yep”
One scene that will always stick out to me from this film is “my friends think I like to fight, but it’s just not true.. sometimes I’ll loose my temper and blow of a little steam but I’m not a violent dog… I don’t know why I bite-“
I heard of this movie 2017 I wanna say. I forgot about it until I had a trip to japan. I was heading to japan and was looking through the movies, and then I saw Isle of Dogs. A truly wonderful movie in my opinion.

If you say Isle of dogs real fast,it sounds like "I love dogs"
Not my own comment btw! Credit goes to the orginal commenter!
Crediting them isn't much when you haven't actually stated their name...
Nice try tho.
But be original for once.
Take that liberal 😎
That's intentonal
Why would you credit the “original” when you don’t even know the name 😂
"By firing his explosive military teeth at them" LOL WTF!?
Well, he was a guard dog...
U could watch the movie and find it
My favorite scenes in the movie were
- the sushi scene
- the lab tests scene
- when the activist found the lab assistant (shouting at her)
6:22 just when you said "Happy", a get a Naturo dog ad singing Happy Birthday
I really like how well the 2D integration is done in this one
The Stop Motion reminds me a lot of ThunderBirds.
7:03 That line art style is called "Line Boil".
"A owl" AN owl! If the word starts with a vowel, it's "an"!😝
That's part of the joke. You have to have context before you judge. Damn lighten up
@@southernsocialite5061 I guess my teasing didn't translate well through text. Maybe I should add a 😝
Steve upon seeing a film with a happy ending: Impossible. Perhaps the archives are incomplete.
Something: happens
Characters: looks at the camera like they're on The Office
Has anybody noticed that Isle of Dogs sounds like I love dogs? 🤔 How Interesting.
Its intentional.
ShadowMan8886 I didn’t get that I’m such a fool
I remember when I first saw this film in theatres, I was confused about the design of the humans. I thought their skin looked like it was made of apples or something.
I remember watching the trailer for this and was instantly hooked and excited to see it in theatres. This is such an underrated movie and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys animated movies.
Throwing out a recommendation again: Ginga Densetsu Weed! Lots of plot, lots of characters, mostly good animation, and l o t s of death. Like. At least one named character dies in each episode.
I might be biased since I grew up with it, but might be better to start with Ginga Nagareboshi Gin. I just feel like Weed is more impactful if you know why the old the characters and fight with the bears mattered as much they did
@@nwsgreidsh Very true! Especially with John, big oof.
I have to agree that both of the Ginga anime definitely sound like something up Steve’s alley. While I never got to watch the whole series online due to some missing episodes, I was certainly invested in it.
Maybe he can structure it like the farthing(?) woods episodes, break down videos by arc or by like 8 episodes
I wish English speaking countries would get an official DVD release, both series need more exposure. Not sure which licensing companies would be willing to pick up them
10:03 good old Jeff Goldblum is always a plus.
I love how the animation becomes slow then suddenly become fast
The pilot (kid) had a bad habit of crying and gnashing his teeth at uncanny times. Very strange film.
Hey Steve, recently found your channel and love your reviews. Well thought out and spoken, and tackle a lot of interesting themes. I might suggest you take a look at “The Animal Train” I think it’s done by a creator you’ve looked at before. Cute film from my childhood but I recall it having some real dark undertones. Anyways great review!
Honestly I love this film, I knew from the trailer it would be good after the success of a movie he made with Fantastic Mr fox. And it turned out I was right
1:25 glad there was a visual spelling of megasaki because I was going to be so mad that you just said that Nagasaki (which is where I used to live) wasn't real
that was the most beautiful transition to a sponsored ad I have ever seen on video
"A owl?"
"A o-"
Ad: O-o-o-o'reillyyyy!
I love this film and I think my favorite animation sequence is the sushi preparation scene.
Might I recommend the Canadian animated film, Rock and Rule
