This French/German co-production stars Judd Nelson as eccentric scientist Alex Branson, who, after his life is saved by a courageous golden retriever named Rex, returns the favor by operating upon the seriously injured canine. Implanting a high-tech "thetachip" in Rex, Alex transforms the pooch into a super-powered cybermutt, with ultra-developed artificial intelligence and physical powers far beyond those of ordinary hounds. Naturally, Rex's awesome new powers attract the attention of several scurrilous villains, who, aided by Alex's treacherous assistant Erica (Paulina Mielech), try to steal the dog for their own sinister motives. Directed by Australian George Miller of The Man From Snowy River fame, Cybermutt was completed in 2002, but not exhibited in the U.S. until it aired over cable's Animal Planet network on May 26, 2003. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

A pair of like-minded artists find their personal lives are suffering at the hands of their creative disappointments in this independent drama. Roper (Fred Parnes) is a documentary filmmaker who loves music and is obsessed with the blues; his latest project has been a film about veteran blues artists, but Roper's inability to find a distributor for the project is making him impossible to live with, which is straining his relationship with his girlfriend, Lily (Paulina Mielech), herself a musician, to the breaking point. Roper's anxieties are also putting a damper on his relationship with his young son, Augie (Anton Yelchin). Meanwhile, Roper's close friend and neighbor, Andy (Chris Rydell), has problems of his own; while Andy is a gifted sax player, he's stuck in a rut he can't seem to get out of, and after inheriting a nest egg from his grandmother, Andy prefers to smoke dope and hang out with his friend, Jeff (Mary Curry), rather than work on his music, which frustrates his girlfriend, Jamie (Heather Roop). Roper's dilemmas doubtlessly rang true for star and director Fred Parnes, who himself directed an acclaimed documentary on the celebrated R&B a cappella group the Persuasions. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
