Where to Watch Wiener-Dog
- SirMonkalotSeptember 7, 2026Not bad but not really my type of movie. I like dark comedies and this had some moments that I enjoyed but overall it was too mundane for my taste. Some of the characters were entertaining, I especially liked the first story. Also the ending was pretty hilarious. I think it needed less wieners and more dogs. 🌭
- Allyson GreyDecember 16, 2025Edgy, original, thought provocing and powerful. One of the finest films I’ve had the privilege to see. Want to see every Todd Solodz film including Welcome to the Dollhouse again, which I enjoyed so many years ago when it was first released.
- cultfilmlikerMay 20, 2025It’s ultimately a film about neutering?? lol The attempts to simplify massively complex ideas into a few sentence conversation is so funny but also too real. The Muhammad dog parable was shocking. What we (knowingly or unknowingly) teach the children matters. That’s why we need nuanced moralistic thinkers in power. What a talented cast - Jesus. Creepy kid from 13 Reasons Why still sketches me out! Yes, I realize I’m playing into the collective bullying mindset that show is out to shame! This film would screw up my mom. The Kieran Culkin dad subplot hits a little too close to home. Why are the original songs made for Todd Solondz films so damn good!?! S-tier (albeit unnecessary) intermission GOAT/WOAT penultimate scene
