Snow Dogs (2002) 6/10

Starring : Cuba Gooding Jr, James Coburn, Nichelle Nichols, Sisqo
Director : Brian Levant
Running Time : 91 mins

Ted Brooks (Gooding) is a dentist who discovers he was adopted when his birth mother dies and leaves him a cabin and some pack of sled dogs in her will. When he travels to Alaska to claim his inheritence, he meets his birth father, and angry dog sledder named Thunder Jack (Coburn) who wants nothing to do with him, claiming he never even knew he existed.

This is a reasonable slapstick romp, which sadly doesn't show off Gooding's talents in the best of lights. There's some okay comic moments, mainly revolving around Gooding falling over or being attacked by dogs, but there could have been a lot more done with this movie to improve upon it.
